Comparing: T-45 vs. Tetrarch

The upgraded version of the T-60 tank. Unlike the original vehicle, the T-45 featured enhanced armor and a turret with a 45-mm gun of 1938, as well as a coaxial DT machinegun. The vehicle was deemed obsolete by June 1942 as compared to the T-70. The vehicle never saw mass production. However, one manufactured prototype was sent to the front.

Developed in 1936 by the Vickers-Armstrong company, with a total of 177 vehicles in two basic modifications the Tetrarch Mk I and the Tetrarch Mk ICS manufactured from 1941 through 1942. In 1942 twenty vehicles were delivered to the U.S.S.R. under Lend-Lease, of which 19 fought on the Eastern Front until October 1943.
