Modifications of the cruising tank Covenant:

"Covenant" IV. "Covenanter" III with additional built-in radiators for air cooling on the stern sheet of the hull.

"Covenant" C8 (with different indices). Some tanks were equipped with a howitzer instead of a 2-pounder gun.

Tank bridge bridge "Covenanter", a variant of a 30-foot bridge of the "scissors" type with a carrying capacity of 30 tons, which since 1936 was installed on tanks. Due to the power reserve "Covenanter" on a number of machines, MK 1 and M1s II, instead of the fighting compartment, a bridge "scissors" with a hydraulic ramp and a system of levers, hydraulically driven, was installed. Basically they were used for training and experiments along with bridge kladchikam and on the chassis of "Valentine". The bridge was 34 feet long and 9.5 feet wide. Several such machines were used by Australians in Burma in 1942.

"Covenant" AMKA. In 1942, the "Covenanter" was used only to test a newly developed mine protection device, which was mounted in front of the tank body to turn it into a self-propelled mine trawl.

"Covenant" OP (machine observers), commander and repair and evacuation machines.
