Marmon Herrington M22 (T9) Locust
For its first performance 17 of the M22s were given to the British 6th Airborne Armored Reconnaissance Regiment. In the field the M22 Locust was plagued by many mechanical issues, and there was a lot of resistance against using the tank in favor of the previously used Tetrarch light-tanks. Despite of this, in March 1945 eight M22 Locusts were sent into battle with the Airborne unit during Operation Varsity, a large Allied operation to cross the Rhine.
Many were destroyed either during the glider landing or in the ensuing battle. Only two M22s finally reached the rendezvous-vous point and got into action. But here the light-tank proved much too fragile and a magnet to enemy artillery fire causing heavy casualties among the men. After this it never saw action in British service again.
