A version of the Australian Sentinel tank, the AC III Scorpion, was to have a radial engine. The Scorpion was a standard AC I, but modified to mount the desired Pratt and Whitney Wasp radial engine. For tank use the Wasp was to be down rated to 400 horsepower and re-designated 'Scorpion' with tanks using the engine carrying the same name. However, experimental testing with the Scorpion engine revealed undesirable traits, such as poor torque output at low RPM and a high RPM ceiling required to reach maximum power output.
