The first turreted British tank to enter service did not, in fact, appear until 1924 in the shape of the Vickers Medium Mk. In reality, no British production tank of World War 1 era was equipped with a turret like this, and armament was primarily carried in sponsons projecting from the flanks of the vehicle.
