The
Tank, Heavy, TOG 1 was a prototype
British heavy tank produced in the early part of the
Second World War in the expectation that battlefields might end up like those of the
First World War and was designed so it could cross churned-up countryside and trenches. A single prototype was built, and followed by an improved model (the
TOG 2) but interest faded with the successful performance of another cross-country design, the
Churchill tank, and the mobile war that was being fought.
