Description
The Dagger was a infantry tank designed by Vickers for New Britania at the beginning of World War 2, 1912 (1940 in normal timeline), it was intended to replace the MK II Cougar due to being subject to get stuck on terrain and insufficient armor. Vickers them designed Dagger which had much wider tracks and spaced armor for proection while keeping relativily lightweight to be able to carry out recon missions, infantry fire support, flanking and breaching enemy lines.
The Dagger main armament was a 38mm 15 rounds revolver autocannon meant to shred thru infantry and lightly armored vehicles, it carried a mix of AP and HE shells.

@Ummmhelli so am i yet i try to improve
@teodor99 i suck at ground vehicles no matter what. Old tanks? B r i c c modern tanks? Weird looking pancake
@Ummmhelli well doesnt stop ye from improving so give it a try. ye might be able to make something amazing
The reason why i didnt join this challenge is bc i am terrible at making tanks. If u have seen my last tank yeah u know
Bruh just noticed that all wheels' engine connection broke
so.... designated light tank. but armour of a heavy.... i think this is actually an "Infantry Tank" that is the correct term for this.
other than that it is quite a capable design and it is nice to look at. but judging by said design. i cant really see how you would fit 5 people in this thing. 4 is pushing it but possible, but turret would be too cramped.
but enough rambling. its a good design but its specifications and classification is really letting it down. i would suggest downsizing the crew to 3-4 and relabel it as "Infantry Tank" it would make more sense for the design.
@Foodtastegood4K Extra fuel for the steam engine
Why does It have small logs?
