During Wwi, Much Of Western Europe Was Reduced To A Massive Battlefield Criss-Crossed By A Seemingly Unending Network Of Trenches. The Original British Mk.I Tank Was Developed To Break The Deadlock; The Mk.Iv Was A Later Model Based On Many Of The Same Design Principle, And Of Which Around 1,000 Were Produced Starting In March 1917. A “Male” Variant Was Developed To Smash Through Enemy Lines And In Addition To Machine Guns It Utilized Large 6-Pounder Guns, In Contrast To The Separate Female Variant Equipped With Only Machine Guns For Armament. The Mk.Iv Saw A Variety Of Action, Including A Mass Deployment Of Around 400 At The Battle Of Cambrai In November 1917, Additionally Prevailing In The World’S First Tank On Tank Battle With The German A7V In April 1918.
