Comparing: M2 Medium Tank vs. Pz.Kpfw. S35 739 (f)

The only medium tank to be adopted by the US Army during the interwar period. The vehicle was equipped with a 37 mm gun and six 7.62 mm machineguns, four of which were mounted on rotating fire units. The two non-rotating machineguns were placed on the front of the hull. Despite unimpressive combat characteristics, the M2A1 became a milestone for American tank development from the time of its inception by virtue of being easily adaptable for mass production. In 1940, 94 vehicles were produced.

Some of 400 of these French tanks were captured by the German Army. They were later used for training purposes and on secondary fronts.
