Twelve solid shot armour-piercing shells were drawn, six to each working Staghound. In 1952 the tanks were replaced with Staghound Armoured Cars. The British allocated the name Staghound to the T17E series. The Staghound was an innovative design that incorporated some advanced features. Upon re-establishment in 1948 they adopted the Staghound armoured car, which it operated until 1956.
