Čaj Kromvel tenk, officially Tank, Cruiser, Mk VIII, Cromwell (A27M), was one of the series of cruiser tanks fielded by Britain in the Second World War. Named after the English Civil War leader Oliver Cromwell, the Cromwell was the first tank put into service by the British to combine high speed from a powerful and reliable engine (the Rolls-Royce Meteor), i razuman oklop. Međutim, prvobitno predloženi pištolj velike brzine dvostruke namene nije mogao da se uklopi u kupolu, a uklopljen pištolj srednje brzine dvostruke namene pokazao se neadekvatnim. Unapređena verzija sa pištoljem velike brzine postala je tenk Kometa.
