Turret of Somua S35

Turret of Somua S35

Here we see the turret of a Somua S35, showing its 45mm gun, a powerful anti-tank gun in 1940, but also its small size, which forced the commander to also act as gunner and loader.

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