ParticipantThe Neatherlands PDF has an entry for a “Vickers light tank” with 1 turret mounted HMG and a coaxial mmg. According to the PDF This tank can be upgraded by replacing the coaxial MMG with a second HMG for +15pts. No model number is provided.
Is this a single turret with two HMG’s or two turrets each with a single HMG? When trying to look up this tank online it appears the Dutch may have had both the single turret model and a two turret model.

ParticipantI’d go with two in a single turret as theres nothing to tell us to add a second turret.

ParticipantMost of the KNIL Vickers lights had a twin Colt-Browning mounting, I believe. I think that would be 2 MMGs? The HMG would be the Vickers 0.5″ as on British light tanks, but as far as I know, they were never fitted on the Dutch vehicles
