A Brief History of Churchill Tanks
The Churchill tank was the most famous British heavy infantry tank during WW2. Renowned for its robust armour, extensive longitudinal chassis equipped with all-around tracks, and intentionally modest speed to match the pace of infantry, it became a cornerstone of British armoured formations. It had overcome serious reliability problems early in its career to become a mainstay of the British armoured forces. After Dieppea raid, the German report criticized the Churchill as being weakly armed with obsolete, ineffective weapons and equipped with tracks that broke easily. Despite these criticisms, only two of the 29 tanks were penetrated by the German antitank guns. This particular model accurately replicates the Churchill III variant, distinguished by its welded turret.
