This TD was part of an emergency tanks project, once France got liberated.
Pretty unrealistic as the Somua S35 tank was outdated for long; as well the British QF 17 pounder gun production would end soon.

This AMX S35 really looks like a re-issue of a Somua 1935 TD project: the CAM1.

After rejection a new CAM2 project was designed in 1937: this one became the Sau40 prototype.
