Specifically, the mismatch in crew values caused by commander's 10% crew skill bonus. Outside of a crew of 1 commander only, 100% crew is a fiction. The client values, given for 100% crew, will normally be taken into battle with 110% crew skill members aside from specific functions, causing their actual performance to deviate from the expected client value. These differences are taken into account in tooltip boxes.

Player Opinion

Pros and Cons

Pros:


  • Fast reload times
  • The only tank destroyer allowed in tier 2 battles
  • Good view range


Cons:


  • Very poor top speed
  • Very weak armor
  • The tall front shield hurts rather than helps


Performance

Yet another spinoff of the FT-17, this tank destroyer can be very fun to play with. It yields an interesting gun selection, it's maneuverable, the top gun is accurate, and has excellent ammo capacity. The top speed and handling are pretty much identical to the RenaultFT, with the downside of not being able to use the Franklin engine.

There are three 25mm guns to choose from, each an improved version of the one before. All three use the same ammunition, with the same damage and penetration. None can use HE shells. The first upgrade is very minor, providing a small increase in accuracy. The 25 mm automatique mle. makes the gun into an auto-cannon capable of firing five bursts of two rounds each. Keep in mind this is firing the same shells you were firing one at a time before.

The 47 mm SA-L Mle.37 tops it off with more penetration, damage, and accuracy. This is generally a better weapon for long range shots.

  • The 25mm auto-cannon, nicknamed "Put-Put" by some players, can be very effective and a nasty surprise against even the thick armor of the Hotchkiss H35 and AMX 38.
  • The gun traverses wide enough that you won't need to move your tank too often to get a shot. Just pick a good spot and fire at will!
  • A Camo Net on this tank will make it practically invisible to anything that lurks nearby, and is much needed since your low armor won't allow you to survive many hits.


Early Research

  • The Renault M26/27 engine and the ER 52 radio carry over from the RenaultFT, so you should equip those immediately.
  • Start by researching the first gun upgrade, as the stock gun is pretty weak.

Historical Info

Renault FT AC

Immediately after Germany invaded Poland, whole France was in Panic. Years of cutting army budget left France unprepared for the inevitable war. At the time France suffered from chronicle lack of armor. One of the obvious choices was to improve the existing stack of Renault FT tanks, French tanks from the First World War. Although existing in large numbers, FT was the completely obsolete at the beginning of World War II.

The original Renault FT 17 tanks were armed with either a 37 mm cannon Puteaux, 18 or 8 mm machine gun Hotchkiss model 1914. Performance cannon SA18 were hopelessly inadequate in anti-tank combat, so French army had the idea to modify the existing vehicles with a modern 47 mm antichar model 1939 anti-tank gun. At the time there was around 1580 FT tanks in service, and as much as 1300 of them in reserve, so the idea of converting obsolete tanks into capable tank destroyer was in a sense logical step considering the situation France was facing. Newly installed gun would have an elevation + / - 15 ° lateral and 6 ° on either side, while crew was to consist of three men. Considering that there was around 300 FT tanks conserved with their armament removed, the plan also included a series of completely new, factory rebuild vehicles.

The biggest problem was the speed. While 7,5 km/h while driving off-road was considered enough for World War I infantry support role, it was totally unsuitable for modern combat maneuvering mechanized divisions. Although the idea of conversion was not without grounds, it should have been implemented at least five years earlier. Considering that at the time France had a number of much more promising vehicles in development, like Laffly W 15 TCC, Lorraine 39 chars du Chasseur, or Panhard Tourelle 178 modification of the existing stack of FT tanks was canceled, as it was considered to be waste of already very limited resources.
