The Matilda was developed as a heavily armored infantry tank and was one of the British Army's main tanks in North Africa during WWII. The Matilda swept aside opposing Italian tanks and was respectfully called the "Queen of the Desert" by German forces. During Operation Battle axe to lift the siege of Tobruk in June 1941, German forces famously used their 88mm AA guns in the anti-tank role as they were the only effective counter against Matildas.
During the Second World War, the British army operated infantry tanks with strong defense force to support infantry, among which the second infantry tank was the second in the late 1930s Matilda was developed in the North African Front, making full use of its defense capability as a main tank of the British Army, keeping all the German armored cannons and antitank guns out and awaiting "Queen of the Desert" and In particular, the match against the German army 88mm gun in the Battle axes strategy of June 1941 is too famous, leaving the name in the history of war as an indispensable existence in talking about the fierce battle of North Africa.
