First To Fight
First To Fight 1/72 Renault R40 Light Tank with 37mm SA38 Gun\n\nFrench Light Tank\n\n20mm Scale\n\nNew, sealed and unbuilt. \n\nRef No : FTF096\n\nIn the early stages of WWII the Renault R35 was the most numerous of French tanks. Designed to replace the FT-17, on 1st September 1939, 975 Renault R35 were in service. The French supplied Renault R35 to both Poland and Romania. \n\nBy 1937 it was clear that the original suspension system was flawed. It was improved in 1940 by an AMX system with twelve wheels and six vertical springs. At the same time an improved radio and the long barrel L/35 37mm SA38 gun were fitted in an adapted APX-R1 turret. The new variant was designated \""\""Char l\u00E9ger mod\u00E8le 1935 R modifi\u00E9 1939\""\"" but was more commonly referred to as the Renault R40. It was delivered in time to equip one Polish Army battalion and two French Army battalions in France before the fall of France in 1940.\n\nWhether for wargaming org
