Il Mk III di Staghound era una modifica di un piccolo numero di auto blindate T17: la torretta era stata presa da un carro armato Crusader da 6 pdr (57 mm) e una mitragliatrice Besa da 7,92 mm. Alcuni di questi sono stati poi rimontati con la torretta AEC Armored Car Mk III con cannone da 75 mm. Non c’era una mitragliatrice ad arco. Questi avevano raggiunto la linea del fronte nel 1945, dove furono forniti a truppe pesanti di reggimenti di auto blindate. Il numero totale ordinato era di circa 100-300. Nel dopoguerra questa versione è stata utilizzata con la Danimarca e il combattimento in Libano.
