The vehicles will be featured at Tankfest 2026, held at The Tank Museum in Bovington from June 26 to June 28.
Deborah II, a Mark IV Female replica from the Norfolk Tank Museum, and Musical Box, a Whippet replica built by Tony Cooke, Kevin Jepson, and the Project Fast Dog Team, will join the existing display for what is billed as the world’s best display of historic moving armour.

Tom Holmes, Events and Partnership Manager at The Tank Museum, said: “Tankfest brings together an incredible collection of historic moving armour.
“Each year we work with other collections to bring visitors a variety of exciting guest vehicles.
“Deborah II and Musical Box are joining our existing line up of rare and fascinating guest vehicles – the Nashorn and the Leopard 2A4 – with more guest vehicles and museum favourites to be announced soon.”
Deborah II is a re-construction of a tank that was lost during the Battle of Cambrai and was built for a documentary marking 100 years of the battle, which featured Guy Martin.
Musical Box is a replica of the Whippet tank which broke through German lines during the Battle of Amiens.
When not in action, both replicas will be on display in the First World War living history zone.
