    Black Prince with 17pdr.
    Not developed beyond prototype as the Centurion was better.
    Tankpark (who I believe has first-hand experience) says the Black Prince was 'Rubbish'!

    I have a set of stowage sketches which obviously come from the same source as yours. Mine are only copies though.
