the AMX-40 as it is in game is just… it has nothing except the shovel and is used only to grind the top tier to get the leclerc , and his X-Ray model is just to old , there is so many modules that are not present that has been added to the game , and it’s stats are not even the reel one , only the turret flank is correct ^^’
so i decide to search , and search , and search… and i understand why it was empty , there si so little info of the tank , and even little for the interior ; little but not nothing!
so here is my suggestion that you can debate if i’m dumb or not that i want for the french tech tree
so lets start with the biggest problem , his armor , the AMX 40 were design to resist , chassis AND turret up to 100mm heat-fs and up to 75mm apfsds on the frontal part of the tank , something clearly not the case in game , but the dev made the armor of many tanks without knowing the looking of it and should have at least respect the armor , for the flank the amx-40 were suppose to resist up to 23mm cinetic ammo (it is like a said the case for the turret in game but not for the chassis)
his engine is 1200 hp and the tech in it like the thermal are suppose to be almost leclerc level , because it was suppose to be an export tank yes , but also a tech test , with many tech when it was scrap used for the leclerc
the armor has a hole in the turret to let pass the 20mm and it’s movement systems and the ammo are in a safe rack(idk what mm of armor it is) to prevent the whole tank to explode , the 20mm ammo are suppose to have a ammo belt like the AA that the crew just take and put when a belt is empty (if add in the game can be a a weak spot)
it doesn’t have driver module , proper electric module , and the aiming component aren’t exact
for my suggestion , there is a egyptian variant with correction that was suppose to be buy by them that never got achieved (only 1 fully fontionnal produce )
that has big number of correction like the 20mm replace by a simple machinegun to be able to close the armor hole
the frontal armor is upgrade to be able to tanked up to 105mm heat-fs AND apfsds , no change for the flank armor
the shovel isn’t here and the motor pass to 1300hp
for my link to support what i said , there is not many because of idk the reason , i will post them just below with some info
here you jave more detail information and even some video of the interior that can be used to help correct modules
this link is more info :

for the screen i got here it is :
a draw of the interior of the tank (not very clear with a comparison of the X-Ray in game )
for the E4 variant here it is a screen break in 2 where you can see (in french) all the modification made and the hole in the turret armor even wrote in it :
(for the 2nd part of the screen you have the redesign done on it )
i hope i don’t ask to much , or i hope it’s the right place to publish this
edit : in the draw from the last screen , from the top , you can clearly see the “armor block” draw ,that can help in case they add the E4
2nd edit : to ease the search for the video i will post it directly (hope don’t break my post), in the video you can even see the safe ammo rack , and how it work
last edit , it has commander direct control , with the possibility to fire from it (like the leclerc)
