Who cares, tanks were only relevant for 1.5 wars.
>>
>>3389668
Of the major powers its easily Italy hands down, arguably Japan as well but they didn't really have that much of a need for them and they did produce some decent tanks despite that.

The British did produce a number of good tanks, they're mostly decried as shit because they're often compared to later German designs and their flaws are often exaggerated.

Tanks wasn't really japans focus due to the terrain they were fighting in.

desu the tank never got out of the prototype state

the only reason it ever got to that stage is because the Tsar was so impressed at a toy model of it going over a boot that he commissioned it.

given the resources and expertise available to New Zealand, it is comparatively better than most British tanks

British tanks were consistently mediocre or terrible throughout WW2, it wasn't just a feature of their end-of-war tanks being bad (in fact that is part of it, that the British were years late in their designs)

>British tanks were consistently mediocre or terrible throughout WW2
Is that why the Germans had nothing that could take out a interwar Matilda II? The main german anti-tank weapon, the 37mm gun, was nearly useless against it and they had to rely on 75mm anti-tank guns and the famous 88's.

>it wasn't just a feature of their end-of-war tanks being bad
Their end-of-war tanks were decent, they just came late. The Comet (barely saw action) with a modified 17pdr and the modified Sherman firefly with the 17 pdr were both tanks that could deal with pretty much anything on the battlefield. They also produced a number of Archer tank destroyers with the 17pdr gun.

Well they did use them, the inherent problem is that any tank designed for Japan would be a "bad" tank because Japan didn't need high velocity guns or heavy armor to fight almost exclusively infantry, not to mention the state of infrastructure in China.

Pic related is the Type 3 "Chi-Nu". It never saw action as it was kept in Japan to be used against any allied invasion.
