If there is such an modification then I will +1 for now I’m neutral. Out of curiosity, what was the source of this?
I’m trying to find it, it was on one of those .RU or .SU websites leaning towards the latter since its nowhere else to be found, I’ll check back in when I find it.

The vast majority of my recent games have been USSR and ISR. Not sure where USA main fits in there aside from a handful of AH-56 games.
I never knew that Vulcan Foundery were russian company and we loaned Matilda from them via Lend-Lease.
:/
This is hopeful, Matilda II Mk III in Enlisted.

One interesting thing to note:
You can see this Matilda has the turret ring collar. Many people claim it was only done by the Australian’s, but they were delivered that way as seen here.

I didn’t notice that. Interesting catch.
Had to crop the second photo as there’s a dead body in the original.
The Soviets also received the CS version. Though the only way to make the 3" Howitzer effective would be giving it the British experimental HEAT round.

Iirc the CS version was HE only right?
HE and smoke, which is why I said British experimental HEAT is the only way to make it viable.

That’s probably based on a bit of a misunderstanding. Turret ring protection was present on some of the Matildas from the UK. The British made ones usually have a flange at the base to be bolted down, on Australian tanks these were often welded. For tanks without, as part of the set of modifications to bring them up to combat standard, Australian made ones were fitted, I believe these ones are welded with a bunch triangular buttresses, so no flange at the base or provision for bolts.
Here’s a nice image of both.

Yep, if you see some out in the wild the welds holding the British ones together don’t rust as they used some nickel alloy rods, the Australian ones seem to have been done with whatever they had to hand.
