The second one looks like some sort of tankette..... French or Polish would be my guess.
First one kinda reminds me of a Panther.
Third one looks like a British model.

The top pic is the Hungarian TAS 44M which never made it to production
The middle picture is the Vickers 6-ton Type B (single 2-man turret, shell firing gun) in Polish service. Not a tankette.
The bottom is a variation of a tank that was very widely produced from the late 30's early 40's as a gun tank and continued in production until 1945 in other roles. It has a number of obvious recognition features. Not British.
