Vehicle description

Wargaming Tankopedia

A French medium tank modified for the urgent delivery of presents and mementos (often explosive). Its crew consists of teddy bears who become anything but cute the moment they enter a tank battle. The vehicle's incredible dynamics and 105 mm gun make it capable of causing unimaginable chaos on the battlefield—while also being the most adorable vehicle in any tanker's collection.
