Churchill Crocodile

The Churchill Crocodile was a type of tank introduced by the British Army during the Second World War in 1943. It was devised from the village on Salisbury Plain, which the army had commandeered for military training purposes, evacuating the inhabitants but promising them they could return after the war. They introduced the Churchill Crocodile, The tank terrified the Germans.

By 1948, the British Army had still not returned the commandeered village to its original inhabitants and continued to use it for military training, working on a project codenamed Sphinx Lightning. This was the testing of the new remote control Mk VII Churchill Crocodiles armed with flamethrowers and machine guns. (AUDIO: Sphinx Lightning)
