Comet (A34)*
*
The best British tank to see action in WW2*
significant numbers of Comet were not*
available until after the Rhine crossings of*
March 1945.*
*
The 77mm gun is the 17 pounder,but as*
Comet could not take the full 17 pdr recoil,*
this model had a smaller cartridge.*
*
Comet was a very succesful design for its*
time, and served long after WW2 in the*
British (to 1960) and other armies.*
