VALENTINE

Picture of Valentine

The Valentine was a British infantry tank made by Vickers which first saw action in North Africa during the Second World War. It had 65 mm thick frontal armour and a slow top speed of 15 mph and a range of 145 km. Eleven variant models were made, early ones being armed with the two-pounder gun and later models with the six-pounder gun or American 75 mm gun.
