„Verdeja“ – the Spanish light tank

In 1940 the Spanish captain Felix Verdeja designed a light tank, which is named after the designer. The design of the machine used a number of elements from the Pz. Kpfw. I and T-26 tanks, used in the Spanish army at that time. Two tank prototypes were produced, the first of which was completed in February 1941. Despite the fact, that the Verdeja tank was ordered to produce 1000 units, it never went into serial production. In 1945 a self-propelled artillery unit with a 75 mm caliber field cannon was designed on the chassis of this tank.
