This needs to be added, far too cool to not be introduced. And i can see im not the only one who thinks it looks like it came crawling straight out of 40k. Although i think it looks more like a plagueburst crawler.

Yes, I want this one, I hope it will pierce more than the SaU 40, it will be great to have a French tank piercing more than 100mm.

If you’re talking about armor penetration of the gun, it can’t pen more than 100mm, at least not with conventional rounds, it can probably pen around that using APCR rounds.
It would be implemented as a low br tank, a sort of improvement over the SAU 40 so around 2.0 to 2.7. And it will not have a insane APHE round, if you’re wondering. It’s the same gun as the SAu 40
I’m currently drafting an addendum to this suggestion with the approval of OP using additional primary sources and documentation he wasn’t aware of when making the suggestion.
What I’ll say for now is that, even with experimental ammunition, it has sub-90 mm of penetration, which could justify a BR of 2.7.
There is theoretically nothing stopping it from using the Char 2C’s overpressure APHE round since it was the same cartridge. It’s just an older round that would be non-standard by the time the ARL was tested.

+1 Weird French thing.
France please don’t change with your strangely forward thinking designs that are a bit too raw and problematic.
(FYI this is an issue with some French engineering development jumps way to early on something has issues and rest of the world leap frogs them a few years later when it’s baked) the French car industry is infamous for this
