Archer SPG Walkaround S279280 UK AAAM Cairns 2019

The Self Propelled 17pdr, Valentine, Mk I, Archer was a British self propelled anti-tank gun[2] of the Second World War based on the Valentine infantry tank chassis fitted with an Ordnance QF 17 pounder gun. Designed and manufactured by Vickers-Armstrongs, 655 were produced between March 1943 and May 1945. It was used in North-West Europe and Italy during the war; post-war, it served with the Egyptian Army. This vehicle was unusual in that its gun faced the rear of the chassis instead of the front. - Wikipedia. This one is part of the collection at Australian Armour and Artillery Museum.
