  Upon the outbreak of WWII, B1 bis tanks stood in the way of German armies determined to strike a crushing blow against France on her own soil. The B1 bis entered manufacturing in 1937 and ended up being an upgraded form of the original 1920s-designed Char B1. The rivet-joined hull mounted a short-barreled 75mm howitzer, while a tiny, one man turret carried a longer-barreled 47mm tank weapon.

  The B1 bis ended up being one of the more greatly armored tanks of its time, with plating that was 60mm thick in places, amply with the capacity of defending it against anti-tank fire such as that from 37mm Pak weapons. It could above hold its very own against individual German tanks, and ended up being significantly feared by enemy soldiers who encountered it.
