Historical Reference

This British tank was built in great secrecy in the laboratories of a very well-known secret intelligence service. For the good of the Kingdom, the Defender Mk. 1 accomplishes the most complex and sensitive missions that are far from supply bases and with no communications or reinforcements. Black armor, an electric engine several centuries ahead of its time, and a four-shell autoloading gun make the Defender Mk. 1 the perfect tool for special operations.
