T-40 Light Tank
This page has moved here (click).
The T-40 was part of a long series of tankette designs and was one of the main tankette types in service in 1940, it's main feature being that it was amphibious, though when World War Two arrived in Russia in 1941 the T-40 was useless against other tanks as it was armed with only a machine gun and as a result many T-40s were converted to Katyusha rocket launchers. A non-amphibious version of the tank was also designed that was simpler to produce and known as the T-40S but when this went into production it was re-designated T-60.
