Armoured Division until replaced with the Stuarts in 1941.

The Mk.VIC was the final production model of the Mk.VI series and differed the earlier versions by having no cupola and being armed with the 15mm and 7.92mm Besa Machine Guns. Used by the BEF, they were also used in North Africa with 16 delivered in January 1941 by the convoy code-named Operation Tiger. Photographs exist of Mk.VIs in caunter scheme at Tobruk.
