Suffolk tank

Thanks Dags, I'm with you now.
If you look at the bend/wheel to the rear of the one we are talking about, you can see the bracket (or what ever you call the thing that holds the wheel) there. I think the hull would accomidate the gun breach as well as the 'bracket', albeit with very little free room since assault guns of this type seldom have much traverse. I honestly don't know much about it though - I used pictures of the interior of the Char B1 as my reference for how the gun might be mounted.



Gotta love the Char B1 - what a weird and wonderful design!

Very nice!  I believe Evelyn Waugh wrote a novel about a war on an island off the coast of Africa in the interwar years. I wont repeat he title as it is not necessarily seen as PC these days. However, the modernist king owns a tank. In the novel its main use becomes a mobile prison owing to the overheating of the hull under the blazing sun.
