    Fighting With Valor

    Developed from the mid-1930s as a cavalry tank, the SOMUA S35 used a
    number of cast metal parts to up production efficiency; the bolted cast
    hull design was ahead of its time. With a 47mm main gun and a 190hp V8
    gasoline engine from which it could squeeze 40km/h, the SOMUA S35 was an
    effective package. The roughly 430 examples produced between 1936 and
    June 1940 proved a worthy adversary for German forces during fighting in
    Belgium and Northern France, their balanced performance leading many to
    acclaim the S35 as the best tank available to France at the
    commencement of WWII.
