The Cruiser tank Mk V or A13 Mk III Covenanter was a British cruiser tank of the Second World War. The Covenanter was the first cruiser tank design to be given a name. The tank equipped various British armoured divisions in the home defence and training roles. It never left the British Isles as poor engine cooling caused versions MkI-MkIII to be declared unfit for use overseas service especially in hot climates. This was rectified in the MkIV after many corrective actions were undertaken but by February 1944, it was declared obsolete. More than 1,700 of the type were built. This example is displayed in the markings it had during the War when it served with the 13th/18th Royal Hussars, part of the 9th Armoured Division. For reasons unknown, it was buried by the Canadian Army just prior to D-Day on a farm near Dorking. In 1977 it was discovered, recovered, restored and put on display in 1985. A second Canadian Covenanter tank was dug up on Monday 23rd May 2017. (From Wiki)
