Somua S35 from the front

Somua S35 from the front

Here we see a Somua S35 from the front, giving a good view of its cast hull. However we can also see the line of bolts along the top of the tracks, where the top and bottom halves of the hull were joined together, creating a weak spot in the armour.

Picture from the author's collection. The tank is in the collection of the very impressive Bovington Tank Museum
