The double-turret variants were equipped with two Ckm wz. 25 Hotchkiss 7.92 mm machine guns, while the single-turret versions featured a 47 mm cannon alongside a Browning wz. 30 7.92 mm machine gun. Following a series of standard tests, the technical department of PZI, responding to military demands, initiated the VAU-33 (Vickers-Armstrong-Ursus 33) program. This project aimed to develop new single- and double-turret tanks inspired by the design of the Vickers Mk E Model A. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePolish soldiers informally referred to these two versions as \"dw\" and \"jw,\" abbreviations of the Polish terms dwuwieżowy (double turret) and jednowieżowy (single turret). Initially, the double-turret model was the standard, but over time, both configurations became widely known as the 7TP. This transition marked the evolution of the British design into a distinctly Polish tank.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 74\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.2 x 10 x 7 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e March 27, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53377340309811,"sku":"9791255892182","price":45.86,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/lU3_TtgUZW9791255892182.webp?v=1779321033","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/polish-7tp-light-tank-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
