Question for next time: I love the Matilda Diaries. Watching the restoration of a WWII tank makes me wonder about the expected longevity of such vehicles. Designed just before the war and built in a time of war, I was wondering if you see design and construction techniques that betray an expected short lifespan for the vehicle? Like the bushings in the suspension, where I might expect bearings. Or poor accessibility to serviceable parts. I wonder if you see signs that either knowing or expecting the vehicle to not last forever - especially in wartime where quantity sometimes trumps quality - may have caused some compromises in the fabrication? I'm certainly not picking on the Matilda - the question could be applied to any vehicle produced under duress. Do you sense it done differently for modern armor, or even inter-war designs (after the war to end all wars)?

Hello David! Thanks for answering my questions so far! Can you go over the development history for the 32-pounder on the A39 Tortoise and the estimations on its operational capability? Given how everyone eventually used anti-aircraft guns on their tanks, it seems strange that the British were one of the last involved in the ETO to follow this trend. Also another question for possible video filler: What is the details on the Jagdpanther's transmission that is rumored to make the tank destroyer more reliable than its Panther tank counterparts?
