The AMX 30 1er prototype is a French tier 9 medium tank.
Developed as part of a competitive search for a unified European tank. The vehicle turned out to have maneuverability, engine power, and effective anti-tank engagement distance superior to all other vehicles except the Leopard 1. The armor of the vehicle was quite thin, but it was decided that technological advances in anti-tank shells had essentially rendered armor obsolete: survivability would depend on mobility and firepower.
The AMX 30 1er prototype marks the end of its French medium line.

Player Opinion
Pros and Cons
Pros:
- Mobile, high top speed, good acceleration and decent turning
- Fast-firing top-gun with acceptable penetration, good alpha and excellent DPM
- Good accuracy when standing still and fully aimed
- Surprisingly angled frontal turret armor; can give some bounces
- Nice gun depression; effective in hull-down position
Cons:
- Weak hull armor; won't bounce shells often
- Accuracy on the move is bad. Same applies to shots not being fully aimed; you will miss more often than not!
- Relatively large cupola on the top turret
- Often catches fire from frontal shots due to the frontal fuel tanks
- Poor view range for a medium tank
Performance
The AMX 30 1er Prototype is a great example of power creep. This medium has the speed of a Leopard, the turret armor of a Centurion, the gun depression of an american medium/heavy, and the accuracy of a T-54. Note, however, that after patch 9.20 top gun lost 12mm of penetration, so expect to use more HEAT against heavily armored targets. When stock the AMX 30 Prototype is a pain. Although the mobility is still fairly good the gun is only really effective for flank shots or even rear shots for some of the more heavily armored tanks in the game. However the stock mobility is good enough to reach these required positions. Researching the 100 mm SA47 should be a main priority. Note that the gun is too heavy to be initially mounted so the tracks should be researched or (even better) the relatively cheap Enhanced Suspension mounted. The final gun, the 105 mm mle. F1, is an excellent addition to this tank. It combines acceptable penetration (248mm) with good alpha and accuracy to make the AMX 30 Prototype a medium with a nasty punch for unsuspecting enemies.
Early Research
- Mount enhanced suspension, it is cheap and will allow faster progress to the 2nd gun if you don't already have it. Mobility with stock tracks and engine is very good anyway, so the firepower should be your priority.
- Research the 100 mm SA47 for a much needed boost in penetration and damage
- Research the 105mm gun, it is what makes the tank
- Research the turret for increased view range, better HP (1550->1650), faster reload, as well as better frontal armor
- Research the tracks to allow for a higher weight limit, better traverse speed, and to free up 1 slot for combat-oriented equipment (occupied by enhanced suspension up to this point)
- Research the upgraded engine; it has a lower chance of engine fire (12%) and slightly better mobility due to lower weight
- Finally, research the radio
