Comparing: D2 vs. Großtraktor - Krupp

A further modification of the D1 tank. Developed in 1934 by the Renault company. A total of 100 vehicles were manufactured from 1936 through 1940. The vehicles of the second series were designated as D2bis.

This experimental combat vehicle was developed by the Krupp company as a medium tank. By 1929, two prototypes were manufactured from non-armor steel. They underwent trials in the Soviet Union from 1930 through 1933. The trials revealed multiple faults, and the vehicle never saw service. However, the results of vehicle development were later used by German engineers.
