[French monster tank, its powerful running also reproduced]
- In May 1940, at the beginning of World War II, the French army's B1 bis tank stood in the way of the German army, which was invading France with great force.Development continued after the end of World War I. This is an improved version of the B1 tank, which began production in 1937.
- In addition to powerful firepower, equipped with a short-barreled 75mm howitzer on the right front of the riveted body and a long-barreled 47mm tank cannon in a small turret, it also boasted exceptionally heavy armor at the time, with a maximum of 60mm.
- The B1 bis was the main anti-tank gun of the German army at the beginning of the war, and it kept the attacks of the 3.7cm anti-tank gun at bay, causing the German army to panic.
- In the Battle of Stonne in northeastern France, two B1 bis companies fought bravely against German tank units.
- Despite being hit by numerous bullets, they destroyed more than 10 German tanks.
