Matildas were just crap. Yeah, they could take a punch, but ugh.

Slander! Matilda did what she was designed to do. Problem is she was designed for the wrong type of war

With its heavy armour, the Matilda II was an excellent infantry support tank but with somewhat limited speed and armament. It was the only British tank to serve from the start of the war to its end,
