The Polish 14TP was envisioned as Poland's ultimate interwar medium tank—an ambitious project meant to bridge the gap between light cavalry tanks and heavier breakthrough armor. Designed by the Technical Research Bureau of Armored Arms in the late 1930s, it promised to be one of the most forward-thinking armored vehicles of its class before WWII cut its development short.

What made the 14TP interesting was its evolution from American innovator J. Walter Christie's suspension concepts. By ditching the convertible drive mechanisms of earlier designs, Polish engineers saved critical weight, allowing designers to bolster armor thickness up to 35–50mm without sacrificing agility.

Its intended firepower was equally impressive, slated to mount either a 37mm high-velocity gun or an upgraded 47mm anti-tank gun, paired with a powerful 300–400 hp Maybach engine giving a top speed around 50 km/h. A single chassis was near completion in 1939, but the German invasion forced engineers to destroy the prototype to prevent capture.
