Soon the new Tier IX French promotional tank the Lorraine 50 t will reach the hands of supertesters.
Design of a French tank from the mid-1950s. The concept was to install a 120 mm gun on the hull and chassis of another experimental tank: the Lorraine 40 t, which was tested at the same time. The work didn’t progress past the design stage.

Don’t care if the tank’s crappy or not, I just love seeing new tanks in the super test.
that turret (T.C.B 120) was used for at least 2 more projects (Tier 9 AMX 50 120 hull + T.C.B 120 & Tier 10 AMX 50 B + T.C.B 120) that were modelled by WG a long time ago (2014? earlier?)
the AMX 65t was modelled at the same time (although it was reworked to HD before being introduced), together with a bunch of other French tanks, some were added and others were not, so there’s still more to come if they so decide
Yeah I remember those, Silent Stalker talked about them a long time ago. There are a lot more that WG made models for but were never introduced. I think the other E series tank destroyers with the hydroponic suspension may become an interesting addition to the game.

Just what WOT needed, another Tier IX reward tank.
Why can’t they put AMX 30 1er and AMX 30 B back in the tech tree and create a proper French medium line?
