About the Char B1 Bis:
Developed in the 1930s, the Char B1 Bis was an improved version of the original Char B1, featuring enhanced armor and a 75mm howitzer mounted in the hull, along with a 47mm turret gun. It was one of the most well-armored tanks of its time, capable of withstanding anti-tank fire from early German weapons. However, its slow speed, high fuel consumption, and limited strategic mobility made it vulnerable to German tactics during the Battle of France.
