Default Vickers MK VIB

This was sold into the UK with another owned by Bert Barker. I would be keen to know where it ended up. I think the museum it was sold to went bust.

The frame on the side was for a target and the splotches are bullet strikes. It would be identifiable wherever it is now by all of those bullet indentations. the jacketed rounds penetrated quite a way into the Armour.

This vehicle was used by the NSW Armored corps . all those used in Victoria had Australian native bird names the ones used in NSW has marsupial names. This tank was Koala .
