Flying Tanks! Tetrarchs and Locusts

Bovington Tank Museum, and The Chieftain again - ten minutes on the topic of air-portable tanks of World War Two. Support me on Patreon:   / lindybeige   It is possible that (some?) Tetrarchs had holes in the sides of the turret for a drawstring that could pull the trigger of the smoke projector from inside the turret. However, you really wouldn't want the rifle cocked and ready to fire unless you were just about to use it. White phosphorous is dangerous stuff and you would make no friends by setting it off by snagging your belt on the string as you climbed in the tank.

The Museum's channel:    / thetankmuseum   The Chieftain's channel:    / @thechieftainshatch   Two ideas have been posted in the comments for the name 'Tetrarch'. One is that it has four equally-sized wheels on each side (which guide the tank, a bit like four rulers guide an empire). The other is that there was a very famous racehorse called 'The Tetrarch' that died in 1935. The tank was not designed originally for air-drops, but was presumably meant to be fast, so that makes sense.
