Acquired by the Bannister Historic Armour Collection from the Australian Armour and Artillery Museum, it’s currently undergoing restoration.

The 38-ton tank, owned by the Churchill Trust, was built at the Vauxhall factory in Luton, in Bedfordshire. The tank was transported from the Tank Museum to Luton over the weekend of May 10-11, 2025, as part of VE Day celebrations.
