Hello guys,

Just a thought from a tank designer’s perspective, the sloping back would have given the gun No1 (the commander who stands out of the top hatch) a good view over the back of the gun tractor and allowed him to see the top of the limber, which may have helped the driver in maneuvering the awkward combination, particularly reversing. In the later Morris gun tractors the roof is squared off. Much better for stowing kit, but the rear view is obscured.
