This silhouette is the closest available approximationNamed A-13 Mark II or Cruiser Mark IV. The most glaring drawback of the
A-13 Mk I was its insufficient protection. The next version was thus uparmored while the older units were brought up to the new standard.
A version Mark IV A got a new mantlet and a coaxial MG.
The history of the A-13 Mark II is the same as the original A-13. It fought in France and then in North Africa until the end of 1941.
