Officially, a "Tank Medium, VIckers Armstrongs Mark E, Type B", this was a successful interwar export tank. It was not adopted by the British Army, but sold very well abroad.

Officially, an "Armoured Car Lanchester, Mark II". These armoured cars were big and expensive. Only 39 were built, and few saw service outside of the UK.

Officially, this is an "Armoured Car, Crossley Chevrolet (Indian Pattern)". These armoured cars were used extensively in India between the wars. When the original chassis wore out, the armoured body was put onto a Chevrolet chassis.

Whippet

Kris Lockyear has posted:

The Whippet, or more properly the Medium Tank, Mark A, was the only medium British tank to see service in WWI. It was fast (8,3mph) but hard to drive as it had two engines.

Mark II

nobody@ipernity.com (Kris Lockyear) — Thu, 04 Jan 2018 20:11:33 +0000

Kris Lockyear has posted:

The Mark II tank differed from the Mark I in not having the rear wheels for steering. Only 50 Mark IIs and IIIs were made, and they were only used for training purposes as the steel had not been hardened to make it bullet proof.

This small tank was a French model made in large numbers. It can be seen as the forerunner of most later tank designs having a 360 degree turret.

A Mark IV male tank in the Tank Museum, Dorset. A "male" tank had artillery guns in the side sponsons rather than machine guns. The bundle of branches on the top is a "fascine" intended to help the tank bridge a trench.
