The '''CMT Mark V Ornitorinco''' ({{wpl|English language|English}}: ''Platypus'') was a Cacertian {{wpl|medium tank}} that served with the [[Cacertian Royal Army]] during the [[Siduri War]] and was the final medium tank design fielded by Cacerta in large quantities before the end of the war. Developed after the opening moves of the conflict, the Ornitorinco was purposefully designed as a breakthrough and battle tank that was capable of surviving fire from enemy anti-tank weaponry and to support infantry advances. 

Production of the Ornitorinco began after the first and second waves of the [[Uragano Medium Tank|Uragano]] were deemed to have insufficient armament. While Crocetto Heavy Industries began designing an upgraded variant of the Uragano that could mount the [[Cacertian 75mm RA Mark VI Rifled Gun|75mm RA Mark VI]], Bonple Armament Manufacturers instead decided to use the [[Cacertian 90mm RA90 Howitzer|RA90 howitzer]] and convert it to a tank gun. 

The development of the main battle tank role in modern warfare effectively ended future development of medium tanks and the ongoing projects to design a replacement for the both the Uragano and Ornitorinco were subsequently cancelled. The last Ornitorinco units were officially retired in 1952.

Although mostly scrapped after their retirement, a number of Ornitorincos still exist today, surviving as static displays and residing in museums. [[Anzio Women's Academy]] maintains an Ornitorinco as a static monument to the [[131st Tank Regiment]] and as a {{wpl|gate guardian}} to the main entrance of the Demetria Marik AFV building.

The Tank Museum in Carrera has three Ornitorinco in its collection: a 1940 pattern Ornitorinco that saw service in [[Mansuriyyah]] as a static indoors display, a working 1942 pattern which is often used for the Museum’s armored shows and parades, and a 1943 pattern that is currently undergoing restoration.

The Ruvelkan capital of [[Debrecen]] has one Ornitorinco in an indoor display as part of the city’s Siduri War Memorial Museum.
