French WW I AFV projects with 4 sets of tracks

[Charlesferdinand]

If you read French and you like weird tank projects, the latest issue of GBM Magazine (number 124) has a feature on the various French projects before WWII with multiple sets of tracks. Typically these would be two front tracks and two rear tracks, moving indepedently. The more spectacular are the articulated vehicles, with a gun turret suspended between the driving trains. All very steampunk.

I include a link to perhaps the best known of these on the ATF40 forum

A copy of GBM Magazine (number 124) seems to be impossible to find. Any possibility to know more about this feature?

Could anyone with a copy of the magazine send a PM to me?

Many thanks

Hmm. This is not from WW1.
It is the tank designed by Amédée Varlet and built by Delahaye in 1937.
