Comparing: Object 430 Version II vs. Bat.-Châtillon 25 t AP

Developed at the Construction Bureau of Factory No. 73 in early 1953. From March 8th through March 10th, 1953, the Ministry of Transport and Heavy Engineering considered the project, along with an alternate version of the tank with a more conventional configuration. However, later development was discontinued.

In 1950–1951, engineers of the FAMH company (Compagnie des forges et aciéries de la marine et d'Homécourt) worked on the development of a medium tank with a 90-mm gun and a 25-ton rotating turret. Work was discontinued at the preliminary design stage. Later, all elements of the vehicle were incorporated in the Batignolles-Châtillon 25 t tank.
