FCM F1 — The Ultimate French Superheavy

yeah, perhaps 3.7 is right. As long as we do not have AP munition for 90mm found, it should stay there (say, TOG2 got massively uptiered due to its powerful gun, despite being cardboard and slow, too)

French tog 2, I’m for it.

make a suggestuion for it plus one

it was THAT long? the mock up doesn’t reveal it at all. Btw, since it is ARL project, I think it’s real name is Char maximum (you can see it in sources)

honestly im doing additional researches with my team right now, and if incendiary shell is like 37mm French incendiary one… It’s actually gonna be able to fight Tigers. Incendiary is literally AP in the game, just with chemicals to ignite planes. Against tanks it would function like AP. But I am searching for proofs of it’s existence right now

Though some incendiary ammo is function just like HE, and there is no visual difference between AP or HE incendiary, they are literally same type. Makes it difficult to determine whether FCM F1 could use solid incendiary shot, or explosive one…

But France is getting a lot of mass produced vehicle as event (like two EBR and two MB 150) so lets have some meme vehicles in the tech tree :)

For real, give us tanks for the tech tree instead of events or premiums.

France isn’t Russia, you’ll settle for event vehicles and you’ll like it. Runs for cover

Added a few fresh blueprints mostly regarding tank hull interior and measurements, but also the armor model you can see on both hull+turret blueprint.
Check the Updated note for additional info I already found out

Now that’s new material to work with. The kind of things that can actually make a difference. Thank you for your work.

not mine, the author is credited anyway

The hardest probleme is the 90mm not having ap, but i think that war thunde could do like they did with the e-100 (in a similar fashion )which is a little bit of inventing, and mouth the 105 mle 1936 which is a field gun (which was a considered armament) instead of the naval gun, cuz i dont think that they should even add with the 90mm as it wouldnt be doing it justice in a tank only game like war thunder

It almost certainly had/would have had an AP shell developed since the 90mm was meant to penetrate German bunkers with heavy AP rounds like the Tortoise and the T95 since an HE shell at those low calibers wont do much to bunkers. Seeing that France adopted the 90mm caliber for their tanks immediately after ww2 i think it wouldn’t be that far fetched to just copy the PCO-50 90mm AP shell and give it to the FCM F1 and recalculate its velocity for the DCA Mle.1926.

Adding this tank to the game would be the greatest event ever!! Developers, please add it to the game!
