ARL Tracteur C40 Heavy Tank

The ARL Tracteur C was a French super-heavy armored-vehicle project considered on the eve of the Second World War. It belonged to efforts to obtain heavily protected assault capability, but the enormous size and complicated arrangement promised severe difficulties in transport, maneuver, maintenance, and battlefield employment. It did not become an operational French tank. The project was not a standard vehicle that defended France in 1940 simply because its design work preceded the invasion. French designers explored several competing heavy assault concepts before the collapse of 1940. French industry was simultaneously pursuing more practical tank programs, including the B1 bis and new heavy-vehicle studies. The collapse of France in 1940 interrupted that broader development effort.
