Features: * As technology improved between the wars, light tanks evolved into fast machine gun carriers designed to smash enemy defenses. Introduced in 1936, the Mark VI was the last and heaviest of this series and sported several improvements. Armament consisted of a .50 and a .303 caliber machine gun.

Built on the standard M4A3 hull, 1-1/2" of armor was added to the sides and front, and a new transmission housing casting measuring 5-1/2" thick was used on the lower front. The turr
