I’d like to make a small suggestion regarding British airborne tanks: add smoke dischargers.

The units involved are spob07, Units 066 (Tetrarch), 734 (Tetrarch with Little John adaptor) and 297 (M22 Locust).

Armour in Profile Number 11: Light Tank Tetrarch says that Tetrarchs were fitted with smoke dischargers when they were used operationally - one on each side of the turret. Each tank was issued with eight smoke bombs to use with them.

Photos of Tetrarchs with smoke dischargers from the Imperial War Museum Collection:

I believe that British airborne Locusts were equipped in the same way. A photo of such a Locust with smoke dischargers.
