Renault History:

The Renault FT (frequently referred to in post-World War I literature as the FT-17, FT17, or similar) was a French light tank that was among the most revolutionary and influential tank designs in history.The FT was the first production tank to have its armament within a fully rotating turret. The Renault FT’s configuration (crew compartment at the front, engine compartment at the back, and main armament in a revolving turret) became and remains the standard tank layout. Consequently, some historians of armoured warfare have called the Renault FT the world’s first modern tank.

Over 3,000 Renault FT tanks were manufactured by French industry, most of them in 1918. During and after World War I, FT tanks were exported in large numbers. Copies and derivative designs were manufactured in the United States (M1917 light tank), in Italy(Fiat 3000) and in the Soviet Union (T-18 tank). The Renault FT saw combat during the interwar conflicts around the world, but was considered obsolete at the outbreak of World War II.

  1. Richard Bowman (verified owner)

    The Renault FT is a must addition to your collection because it is the world’s first modern tank based on the layout with crew in front, engine in back and armament in a revolving turret. The kit is great but be prepared for the tiny size. In 1/35 scale the tank (not counting the trench crossing tail) is only 4.25 inches long. The other tank in my order was the Renault R35 which is provided in much larger scale (close to 1/24). It is a very satisfying build and a better representative for France in my collection. I highly recommend it. Warbricks is always helpful and worked with me to send these together and saved me shipping changes.
