Hobby Boss 83861 - 1/35 Schneider CA - Early  [HB-83861]

The Schneider CA 1 (originally named the Schneider CA) was the first French tank. The tanks were widely used in combat over the last war years. Their first action on 16 April 1917 had been largely a deep failing, the tank units suffering hefty losings, but subsequent engagements were more successful. In 1918 the Schneider tanks played an important rôle in halting the German Spring Offensive and breaking the German front side inside French summer time offensives. These people were active until the end of September 1918, significantly less than 8 weeks ahead of the Armistice of 11 November 1918, their figures having dropped dramatically as a result of attrition. After the war the surviving tanks had been mostly reconstructed as utility vehicles but six Schneider tanks had been implemented by Spain in Morocco, the type seeing its final action at the start of the Spanish Civil War.
