E.L de la Mole invented the first military tank then sent it to the british to be manufactured

Lancelot de Mole did, indeed, design a machine that was very similar in appearance to, and in some ways superior to, the Tanks that emerged during WWI. He submitted his plans to the British War Office, but the idea was ignored.
Many people played an important role in the creation of the tank. Vehicles very like Tanks (i.e. an armoured body containing armament and travelling on caterpillar tracks) were also designed in France, Austria, and Russia in the decade before the outbreak of WWI. One was also contemplated in Great Britain. However, no Army or government chose to pursue the idea.
After the start of WWI, the British and French both began building Tanks, each unaware of the other's project. In Britain the most significant figures were Sir Eustace Tennyson d'Eyncourt, Major Ernest Swinton, and Willliam Tritton. It was Swinton and Tritton who jointly designed and built the prototype that became the Tank Mark I. In France, the likeliest candidate is Colonel J.B.E. Estienne, who had plans drawn up and persuaded the military to build them. The French and British projects were neck-and-neck, beginning in 1915, although it was the British who first used Tanks on the battlefield, on September 15th, 1916. The French first used their own in April, 1917.
The consensus is that no one person can be credited with being the sole inventor of the Tank.
The Tank.
No single individual person invented the military tank. Mr. (later Sir) Eustace Tennyson d'Eyncourt head of the British "Landships Committee" during WWI is the closest person that can be credited for inventing the military tank. It was under his supervision that the FIRST army tanks were designed, built, and fielded onto the battlefields during WWI.
I would consider the first military aircraft as the Fokker Eindekker. It was invented in 1914
The British. They were trying to disguise what they were, and said they were a new kind of water tank.
No, HG Wells did not invent the first tank. The first tank was invented during World War I by the British military. It was first used in combat in 1916. HG Wells did, however, popularize the concept of heavily armored vehicles in his science fiction novel "The Land Ironclads."

The first tank was invented by the Brittish in the first world war 1914 - 1918 and used as a weapon in the battle of the somme in July 1916.
the tank nicknamed 'Little Willie' was the first tank to go to battle it was a little German offensive tank in the first world war
The first anti-tank came out when the first tank was fielded, in WW1. It was a bolt action rifle.

Mr. Eustace Tennyson d'Eyncourt (1868-1951) head of the British "Landship Committee" is responsible for designing and building the world's first army (military) tanks in 1916 (WWI).
