The NC-2 project (commercial name NC-31) was a modification of the Renault FT-17 tank featuring a soft ride suspension and a Kegresse-Hinstin fanged rubber track. These features, along with an upgraded engine, gave an increased top speed of 16 km/h. A total of 15 vehicles of this type were exported to China.

Player Opinion

Pros and Cons

Pros:

• Surprisingly good armor for a tier 1, due to its slope
• Decent acceleration
• Surprisingly great maneuverability
• Top gun has good RoF and pen

Cons:

• Low top speed
• Gun has a long aiming time
• Modules (engine, ammo rack, etc.) often get taken out
• Crew is killed fairly often

Performance

Many will have a Tier-1 "Keeper" they enjoy playing, but it seems unlikely the NC-31 will grace many garages long term. However this tank could fit a niche style of play for those who enjoy low tier matches. The high maneuverability of this tank, plus the slope of the armor, cause the NC-31 to preform surprisingly well as the lead tank in a group fellow T1 tanks.

Unlike it's French counter part, the NC31 is built faster, and with better armor. It can deal a good bit if damage from close or long range. It has decent accuracy for a tier 1 and d/m.
