The Bovington vehicle.

Most notable for it use in the early part of the North Africa campaign (prior to El Alamein). However, due to the lack of firepower in the Japanese forces, it was used throughout the pacific campaign, thus making it “the only British tank to remain in service throughout the war”.1
