French Schneider Tank World War 1 Real Photo Postcard

The French Saint-Chamond tank, introduced in 1917 during World War I, was one of the earliest operational heavy tanks. Developed by Compagnie des Forges et Aciéries de la Marine et d'Homécourt (FAMH), it featured a distinctive elongated hull, a prominent 75mm main gun, and a combination of front tracks and rear wheels, distinguishing it from contemporary designs. It marked France's second major tank design, following the Schneider CA1.
