France was rebuilding from the horrific Second World War and found itself without a medium tank. This is the story of that tank. The vehicle was France's first MBT, and came about due to the failure of a collaborative project with Germany - France got the AMX-30 and Germany got the Leopard 1. Similar in size and in role but quite different in design, the AMX-30 and the Leopard changed tank design forever. The least protected MBT in history - the AMX-30. But boy did it pack a punch...

Any feedback is greatly appreciated, I'm always trying to improve.
