Discover the top tank of the 1920s, which went on to see action in World War II—the Char B1. General Jean-Baptiste Estienne envisioned the tank's initial concept in 1919, and in the 1920s experts defined its basic specifications, including its ability to cross trenches and its low-mounted 75 mm gun. This beast's development was repeatedly delayed as evaluations were conducted and the best ideas from different manufacturers were incorporated.

Join Nicholas "The Chieftain" Moran in this episode of Five Things and discover how the French Army persevered with the Char B1 project despite facing obstacles and limitations due to treaties!
