T-13 B-3
Based on the Vickers-Carden-Loyd Light Dragon MkII B, this tank destroyer has a fully rotating turret containing a 47mm L/30 gun and a 7.65mm Hotchkiss MG. The turret has front, side and roof armour, but an open rear. This lightly armoured the vehicle is intended to be placed in ambush with the rear to the enemy and the turret traversed to the rear. The earlier B-1 and B-2 models could not traverse the turret without lowering side panels. The T-13 is equipped with a towing hook. 250 B-3 were built. From 1944 these were placed in reserve.

T-16
This is a tank-destroyer conversion of the Hotchkiss H-39 light tanks of which 100 were purchased in 1937. The turret and upper hull were removed and a new open-topped, lightly-armoured structure was fitted. The armament is a 60mm L/50 FRC anti-tank gun. These conversions are stop-gaps until a purpose-built tank destroyer enters service later in the 1940s.
