Description

The interior of a Mk IV tank fitted out as a Male (with six pounder ammunition racks visible at left). In the centre is the Daimler, six cylinder engine and forward of this is the driver's and commander's stations. Although the interior is configured as a male gun tank, this tank was finished as a supply tank and carried no weapons. This particular vehicle was probably used as an aircraft towing tug at an unidentified Royal Flying Corps / Royal Air Force base.
