Following Operation Battleaxe a dozen Matildas left behind the Axis lines were repaired and put into service by the Germans.{{sfnp|Tucker-Jones|2007|p={{Page needed|date=August 2010}}}} Several vehicles were transported to [[Kummersdorf]] where they were evaluated, including trials by live fire. The German designation was ''Infanterie Panzerkampfwagen Mk.II 748(e)'' translating roughly as "Infantry Tank Mk.II Number 748 (English)". The Matildas were well-regarded by their German users{{sfnp|Tucker-Jones|2007|p=47}} although their use in battle caused confusion to both sides, despite extra-prominent German markings.{{sfnp|Tucker-Jones|2007|p={{Page needed|date=August 2010}}}} [[Czechs|Czech]] historian {{ill|Ivo Pejčoch|cz}} writes that the [[Kingdom of Romania|Romanians]] had also captured some Soviet Matildas,{{sfnp|Pejčoch|Pejs|2005|p=330}} but no other source mentions this, so it may be a confusion.
