Matilda II

The Matilda II was a British WWII tank known for its thick armor, making it highly resistant to enemy fire. Designed primarily for infantry support, it prioritized protection over speed, with a reliable 37mm or 57mm gun for engaging enemy targets. Its robust armor allowed it to withstand hits from many early Nazi weapons, helping it excel in battle conditions. However, its relatively slow speed and limited firepower made it less effective against advanced German tanks. Overall, the Matilda II was valued for its toughness and played a significant role in early wartime campaigns, especially in North Africa.
