| | Kit Review |
 | | None of the modifications introduced could make the Saint-Chamond into a good tank and, after the French had given consideration to other designs to replace it and the Schneider C.A., it was decided to accept the offer of British heavy tanks for employment in the offensive planned for 1919. |
 | | The S:t Chamond was first used in action on May 5 1917, in support of an infantry attack at Moule de Laffaux. |
 | | This system eliminated the gear changing difficulties inherent in other early tanks and simplified steering (for which controls were provided at either end of the vehicle) but it was complicated and delicate and, unfortunately, unreliable and added to all the other troubles with this tank. |
