Tous les blindés de l'armée française des origines à 1940
When France entered the war in September 1939, its rearmament effort since the adoption of the first new 1935 model equipment had been considerable: more than 2 700 modern combat vehicles - tanks and armored cars - had been delivered in four years by French factories.
And 1 800 others would come out at an accelerated rate after industrial mobilization, from September 1939 until the armistice of June 1940.
This effort, both little known and totally obscured by the disaster, was not a spontaneous generation. Its roots were in the previous war - in particular with the impressive production program of the Renault FT light tank - without forgetting that it was also in France that the first armed and armored combat vehicles were born, at the dawn of the 20th century.
Presented one by one in an encyclopedic form, all this equipment is gathered here in an absolutely complete panorama: 100 main vehicles (battle tanks and armored cars) and 284 variants and derived equipment (troop transports, bridge layers, mine-jumping tanks, etc.).
A concise and absolutely synthetic text, extremely precise genealogical tables, all the technical sheets of the main vehicles, a profusion of illustrations, made up of rare period photographs and sumptuous color profiles, all at constant scale, make this work the essential bible of the subject.
A completed reissue of the best-selling work of 2014, which had quickly become unobtainable.
