  1. The Lorraine 40t was a French medium tank designed to replace the AMX-50 then in development. Once American M47 Patton tanks became available, interest in both the AMX-50 and 40t decreased and the two prototypes were scrapped. destinationsjourney.com/histor #Lorraine40t #FrenchTank #Tank #MediumTank

  2. Based on the Cromwell tank, the FV4101 Charioteer Medium Tank was a British medium tank of the early 1950s. Weight limits on the Cromwell’s suspension meant that the turret for the Charioteer had minimal armour (20-30mm), while at the same time being larger to accommodate the 84 mm (3.3 in) Ordnance QF 20 pounder gun (the Cromwell had a Ordnance QF 75 mm gun). destinationsjourney.com/histor #military #photography #FV4101Charioteer #Charioteer #CharioteerTank #MediumTank #Tank #BritishTank
