The suspension strengthening braces on the little M22 Locust are easily visible in this view, as is the driver's hood on the left side of the hull. This tank has the driver's vision port, which is closed by a steel plug. Above the sandshields are two of the lifting brackets that allowed the hull to be suspended under the belly of the C-54 Skymaster cargo plane. The sandshields themselves are a late design; early models descended further to the front and rear. (Picture courtesy Armor Foto.)
