Churchill Bridgelayer

Utilising the much converted Churchill chassis, the Bridgelayer was another of Hobart's Funnies capable of deploying a Tank Bridge No2 in 90 seconds covering a 30 foot gap. The Bridge was one piece and mounted on top of a turretless Churchill. The launching arm was pivoted on the front of the tank allowing it to propel the bridge forward into the gap while the bridge itself remained horizontal.
