Renault FT-17 with 8mm Hotchkiss Machine Gun

A nice little kit of an early Renault FT-17 armed with an 8mm Hotchkiss machine gun in an octagonal turret. The FT-17 saw service initially in WWI. By 1939 the French still had 1,600 FT-17s in their army. After their defeat, most were re-used by the Germans or as part of the Seigfried line. Beyond Franace and Germany, the FT-17 was also used by Poland, Britain, China, Japan, the Soviet Union and the US.
