Cut content The subject of this article, Bishop Artillery, has been cut from the final version of a Battlefield game.

The Ordnance QF 25-pdr on Carrier Valentine 25-pdr Mk 1 "Bishop" was a self-propelled artillery vehicle used by the British during World War II. A modification of the Valentine infantry tank, the Bishop replaced the rotating turret with a boxy armored superstructure to mount a single QF 25-pdr howitzer. Around 150 vehicles were built, entering service in 1942.

Battlefield V

The Bishop Artillery is an unusable vehicle featured in Battlefield V. Its single in-game appearance is as a vehicle wreck on the map Arras.

A drivable version of the Bishop was planned, with a UI icon, model and some Vehicle Customization items evident in the game files, but with weapons and projectile data missing. It was cut alongside several other self-propelled artillery vehicles, namely the Churchill AVRE, Hummel and Grille. As of patch 6.2 the vehicle has been removed from the game files. The vehicle had a rotating turret and could seat only one player as driver.

Unused icon

Unfinished Bishop spawned into Combined Arms. The vehicle's performance is almost identical to the Valentine Mk VIII but lacks any weapons because of missing data.
