shell correction. the velocity will be increased. the weight as well and it will have even more HE filler. the penetration will get an additional 10-15mm at the different distances. and it will have a decent overpressure effect which allows it to replace the HE

the information on the ammunition written in this suggestion shows the new performance of the Mle1916

These things look like a AI melt down of what it thinks a tank is from 1930. But with a heavy gun and for the bottom one (the turret should get its gun it looks like it should have) would work.

Opinions on where this up-armored version would sit at in BR? I was thinking 3.0 - 3.3, when comparing it to e.g.: Churchill I, KV-1.

Maybe 3.7 with the APCBC shell?

The APCBC performance is incorrect in the table. It should not be firing PCOT-40. The WW2 iteration of this round was called Mle.1940, and was meant to replace Mle.1910M.

The velocity listed is for when PCOT-40 is fired from the SA49 (functionally identical to the 75 mm M3). Compared to the Mle.1897, which was the gun Mle.1940 was originally made for, the SA49 has a longer barrel (L/40 vs L/36), and uses a heavier propellent (~900 g vs 700 g). The Mle.1940 round was very close in mass and propellent weight to the Mle.1910M round, so the muzzle velocity was the same, at 570 m/s.

The gun of the FCM 2C is an even shorter version of the Mle.1897, which would would drop the performance further.

I discussed this originally here, with images and some linked sources

Thank you for the detailed info drop, much needed facts indeed. These specifics definitely narrow down where this tank could be placed at.

Oh yeah, i forgot how the bottom one is called, but it is armed with a hull mounted 75mm and i thing the turret would mount a machine gun, it’s a tank that could be 1.3 to 1.7

They would work well in game big cannon and a shell packed with high explosives.
