The Churchill is seen as a replacement or successor to the Matilda II.
The first prototype came out in 1940, and series production started in 1941.
There were several versions of it. Initially equipped with a 2-pounder gun in the turret and a 3-inch howitzer in the hull, from the Mk.III a 6-pounder gun with coaxial machine gun in the turret and one machine gun in the hull front was standard.
Further changes/improvements followed.
The 12-cylinder petrol engine with 350 hp (261 kW) was able to bring the 40-ton tank to a top speed of approx. 20-24 km/h.
The Churchill also often served as the base for Hobart's Funnies.
One version was the AVRE, which was fitted with carriers to carry fascine bundles.
These served to fill ditches and holes.
