From the early Schneider CA1 and Saint-Chamond to the Renault FT, whose design would serve as a benchmark for generations of armored vehicles, French industry played a major role in the birth of the modern tank.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eMore than a century later, the tank remains at the heart of land combat. Between these two eras, the history of French tanks has seen successes, but also mistakes and profound developments. The B1 bis, SOMUA S35 and other R35s of 1940 were succeeded after the war by the AMX 13, the AMX 30 and then the Leclerc, designed in the final years of the Cold War. Today, recent conflicts, the widespread use of drones and the evolution of anti-tank threats are forcing new adaptations.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eRichly illustrated with often unpublished photographs, this book traces over a century of French tank development, placing each vehicle in its historical context.
