Such as:
- Tiger 131 (which could be notable by itself)
- Rotatrailer
- the Sherman Crab
- the FV4211 (first vehicle fitted with Chobham armour)
All a bit niche but very interesting to those of us who are interested in such things...

FWIW, the only British tanks on en.wikipedia without an image appear to be: TOG1 Morris-Martel Tank, Cruiser, Mk VII Cavalier (A24) ([[Cavalier tank]])
But then, of course, there may be ones that don't have an article yet!
Cheers, Magnus

Dear Wikimedia UK mailing list,
We have been given some free off peak weekday tickets to the tank museum in Dorset.
I have already Emailed those of our Wiki Loves Monuments participants who opted in to further events, so apologies if this is a repeat, but if anyone here fancies taking photographs of tanks, send me your snail mail address and I will send you a ticket
