It's called the ARL 44.

During the occupation, while some French war industries continued to work for the Axis, some engineers kept working on better new French tanks. This was the only post-Vichy one I know of? and participated in war-end parades in Paris. I think one piece molded armour, very thick, sloped. Large 3 man turret and extremely long 90mm gun with characteristic wheel guards still. Better than Tiger maybe?
Not overly speedy or long-ranged, but more practical than British TOG.

Oui oui?

Ca c'est tres bon, tres belle, tres forte.
ou la la
tra la la BOOM zyae!

Just imagine, vs Germans or for Germans or vs Russians if Patton got his way and maybe this got into mass production?
