French Tanks of World War I Zaloga Steven
This title examines the emergence of the first modern tank, the Renault FT. However, France's early tanks suffered from poor mobility and armor compared to their contemporaries. It is a little known fact that France fielded more tanks in World War I than any other army.
In spite of initial set-backs, the French army redeemed its reputation with the Renault FT. Indeed, their initial use on the Chemin des Dames in 1917 was a bloody fiasco. The Renault FT pioneered the modern tank design, with armament in a revolutionary central turret and the engine in the rear.
More importantly, the Renault was designed to be cheap and easy to manufacture. Discover the history of the early French armor developments and their triumphant new design, the Renault FT, that helped to turn the tide of war in the favor of the Allies.
