With the Mechanization of the British Army in the early 1900s, a fast scout vehicle was needed to take the place of the more traditional horse scouts. At first the bizarre design of the Mono Tank caused some concern within the British high command, but after a trial triathlon against several other competitors, ranging from an electric truck to a multi tracked carrier, the Mono tank was declared the winner and quickly entered mass production.
The unorthodox tricycle shape gives the Mono Tank incredible speed using its main drive wheel and some semblance of stability is provided by the rear two. These outrigger wheels can also be used to right the vehicle when it inevitably turns over or even flips.
The tank is Crewed by two men, one driver and gunner to operate the twin clip fed two pounders.
