Development history

Peugeot built a single two-man light tank prototype in 1918 with a short 75 mm gun in a fixed casemate. It was tested in 1918 but proved slower and less practical than the Renault FT, which was already in mass production, and it was not ordered. No photograph with a verified open licence has been found, so the archive shows a blueprint placeholder.
