WWI St. Chamond MkII

About the St. Chamond

The St. Chamond was a French tank used in various operations during WWI. it was developed as the successor of the CA1 Schneider tank. The Chamond tank was designed to fit a 75mm field gun. With this, it had the biggest cannon of all other tank during the war (other heavy tanks used a 57mm cannon). But the small tracks and the large cannon in the nose made the tank highly uncomfortable. It was prone to get stuck in craters and trenches. Later in the war it saw some better action when the battle began to move more into open, unshelled grounds. after the war the tank dissappeared rather fast from the tank divisions, most likely because of its mayor failures.
