Close, but no. It's a tad earlier than the MkII. Look at the pic more carefully.

Oke: Flamethrower tank, based on the Churchill MkI Infantry Tank, predated the Crocodile, flame fuel tank on hull rear, flamethrower tube in front, used in combat during the Dieppe Raid.

Faster than a speeding bullet is our friend from Greece.
I thought that would hang for a while and I had concocted a marvelous story of the "Okies" who fought in all theatres of WWII. Ah well.

Sitz is correct.

I too thought that one might hang a bit, but so be it.

Blackburn B-25 Roc was a two-seat Fleet fighter/dive-bomber developed from the Skua but with a wider rear fuselage to accommodate a Boulton Paul power-driven turret with four Browning machine-guns. The entire production of 136 aircraft was subcontracted to Boulton Paul Ltd, Wolverhampton. The first aircraft flew on 23 December 1938. Four Rocs were also flown experimentally with float landing gears.
