The Vickers .50 machine gun, also known as the 'Vickers .50' was basically the same as the .303 inches (7.70 mm) Vickers machine gun but scaled up to use a larger calibre 0.5 inches (12.7 mm) round. Mark II entered service in 1933 and was mounted in some British tanks. Marks IV and V were improved versions and were also used mounted on trucks in the North Africa Campaign. It was superseded for use in AFVs (armoured fighting vehicles) during World War II by the Besa machine gun 15-mm version.
