- In 1930, at a time the Char D1 had not even entered production, the Renault company agreed to build a better armoured version called the Char D2.
- The Renault D2 in action. The bulk of the rebuilt D1 model 1935s were taken into the 19th BCC (Bataillon de Chars de Combat).
- The first prototype of the Char D2, called Renault UZ, was completed in 1932, followed soon after by two further prototypes in November 1933.
- The Char D2 was a continuation of the work on the Char D1. The Char D1 was originally intended as a light infantry tank, but evolved into a medium tank.
- One of the notable features of the Char D2 was its improved armor protection, achieved through a combination of thicker armor plating and sloped armor design.
- The Char D2 was designed in 1934, manufactured by Renault based on the existing fully tracked Char D1 and was in use from 1936 to 1945.
- The Char D2 had 40mm of armor all around and the more modern APX-1 cast turret, the gun would first be the 47mm SA34 gun, based on a naval gun.
- Research leads to the Tier IV French Heavy Tank Char B1 Pros: -Tough armor -All-around armor protection Cons: -Slow -Poor gun performance.
- Today we present reference photos of the Char D2 tank, the video is intended as a source of inspiration for modellersSupport us :Buy me a COFFE : https:/...
