Look inside this small tank made in France, you´ll see the narrow space for the 2 crew men and the power of the 37 mm gun in action

  • This was a BRILLIANT DESIGN in 1917-1918!!! This was the tank CPT George S. Patton cut his teeth on in WWI (Ike had the British Heavies MK IV Males/Females). The United States Army was SO IMPRESSED with the FT-17 that it became the US M-17 tank up its replacement by the M2 Stewart. The Pateau 37mm L24 was SOTA up to 1930. So what's the scary thought? The French actually fought the Germans in these tin cans. The US .50CAL MG (12.7mm) could out penetrate the Pateau 37mm gun!!!

  • Like it or hate this tank is the blueprint for all modern tanks.

  • Why at point blank? It looks stupid.

  • omg this idiot is walking beside the tank as if the driver could outrun him.

  • @ExileNJ Close, Full Metal Jacket

  • Well thats neat!!

  • That's that actor from Platoon, right?

  • my fists would do more than that....

  • @ZerokillerOppel1 Not an actor, retired Marine Gunnery Sergent R. Lee Ermey, don't care if he acts now he was a Marine first.

  • rebuild this from wood and plastic and you have a 1a softair tank xD
