Comparing: Type 3 Chi-Nu vs. Renault G1

The Type 3 Chi-Nu medium tank is a modification of the Тype 1 Chi-He with a new turret and gun. The tank was the most powerful among wartime Japanese mass-produced vehicles. However, only 60 vehicles were manufactured due to shortages of components and materials.

Developed from 1935 through 1940. The vehicle was comparable to the T-34 in terms of its characteristics. Among several presented prototypes, the Renault G1R project was eventually selected. The vehicle had individual torsion-bar suspension and an innovative gun-mounting scheme. A prototype was built by 1940. However, the development was stopped when France was defeated later that year.
