Flames of War: A13 Armoured Troop - British tanks in 1940. BATTLE FRONT BBX84

Flames of War: A13 Cruiser Tank Troop Product Contents

The A13 Cruiser Tank Troop for Flames of War includes five British A13 or A13 Mk II cruiser tank miniatures—fast armored fighting vehicles designed to concentrate mobile firepower and support offensive operations during the opening years of World War II.

In 1940, the British 1st Armoured Division gathered a major force of tanks to operate in concentrated formations. Key among their vehicle complement was the A13 Mk I cruiser tank, also known as the Cruiser Tank Mk III, which stood out for its superior speed compared to contemporary British designs like the A9 and A10.

A13 and A13 Mk II Cruiser Tanks

The A13 Mk I was one of the earliest British cruiser tanks engineered to leverage battlefield mobility and Christie suspension technology. Its successor, the A13 Mk II or Cruiser Tank Mk IV, incorporated angled composite armor upgrades on the turret to enhance crew protection.

The blend of speed and main gun capability makes these vehicles an iconic choice for fielding British forces from the 1940 Campaign for France. This troop allows you to add a fast armored section to your Flames of War force list and recreate high-speed clashes against German forces across Western Europe.
