WWII - VEHICLE LIST 1/56 (28mm) scale Bolt Action

Renault B1 bis 1937 (France, WW2)

The B1 tank is a French heavy battle tank, designed in the interwar period and used at the start of World War II. A very advanced design for the time, the B tanks nevertheless proved to be quite unsuitable for the rapid operations of the Battle of France in May-June 1940.

The B1 bis is the evolution of the B1 tank of 1934, with a better 300 hp engine and better armor which increases from 60mm at the front and 55mm on the sides.

Armament:

• 1 ABS 1929 75 mm cannon in casemate (74 shells)
• 47mm long SA35 cannon (50 shells)
• 3 MAC 31 7.5 mm machine guns (5,250 rounds) (1 coaxial at 47mm, 1 under 75mm and 1 stored for AA)

Features include:

• 2 hulls: standard hull, an improved version
• 2 turrets, APX-4 open and close
• 1 SA35 47mm for turret
• 1 Mac 31 7.5mm for turret
• 1 optional stowages
