Light Tank Mark II was introduced into service in 1930 as a direct development of Mark IA
and was still in use as a training vehicle as late as 1940. Designed by Vickers it was also built by the Royal Ordnance Factory.
Mark II was used by the British Army not only at home but also in Egypt and even by the Indian Army.
The Vickers Light Tanks were widely used by the British Army during the interwar period. They were cheap to build and operate and
speeded up the inevitable transition from horsed cavalry to armoured regiments. Furthermore light tanks was better suited for a colonial army.
