British Light Tanks / Armoured Cars / IFVs - what’s left to add?

It’s no secret that British light vehicles have been somewhat neglected over the past 10 years or so, with the bulk of the mobility in the tree being provided by the South African subtree. However, this seems to have caused some misconceptions about Britain lacking options in terms of light vehicles, when in reality that could not be further from the truth, and Britain is still missing a huge quantity of light vehicles, from WW2, through the cold war, and to the modern day. So I am making this post so that as a community we can contribute and compile a list of British light vehicles for potential future additions.

For me, I would love to see the Saladin 90 and Scorpion 90, two iconic British cold war lights, but up-gunned to have significantly more bite than their usual low pressure 76mms provide.

(Small note - this thread is for the discussion of British vehicles made/modified/operated for/by Britain. It is increasingly difficult to discuss British vehicles on these forums without the subject being quickly derailed into which foreign nation deserves its various vehicles in the tree, if people are interested in discussing light tanks/armoured cars/IFVs from other nations then a separate thread can be started)

I’d like to point out the addition in the last 2 years of Fox, Badger, Scimitar, Ajax, Desert Warrior, Harry Hopkins, and the SARC Mk IVa, in order to show that British light tanks are now in fact being added fairly consistently.

That said, more CVR(T) please, and the remaining Lend-Lease equipment (Chaffee, Locust, various Stuarts) would be wonderful.
