Comparing: Cromwell vs. T37 vs. 59-16

The Cromwell was developed in 1941–1942 by BRC&W. A total of 1,070 vehicles were mass-produced from late 1943 through 1945. They were extensively used by the British Army in the Northwest Europe Campaign of 1944–1945.

The light tank T37 was developed by Detroit Arsenal in the late 1940s to replace the М24 Chaffee. An order was placed for three prototypes. Later, some technical innovations were applied in the development of the T41 and M41 tanks.

In 1957 a new light tank project was initiated by the Chinese government. Development of vehicle was completed in 1959. The new tank, weighing 16 tons, was equipped with a four-wheel torsion-bar suspension and a rear placement of the drive wheel, and mounted a 57-mm gun (later upgraded to 76-mm).
