AVRE

British tank designed during World War II to defeat various types of obstacle.

Based on the Churchill tank, it was armed with a special short-range mortar firing a heavy demolition charge, for use against pillboxes. The use of various modular attachments allowed it to fill ditches, lay bridges, set demolition charges, or lay tracks for soft vehicles.
