A rotating turret, the engine compartment separated from the crew and placed on the rear... The first tank to have these features, and more than 100 years after, it's still basically the same configuration for nearly all the existing mbt's, except the israeli Merkava. Amazing !

it isn't when you think about how there were a lot more FTs made and that they are a much more simple design than the Tiger, as well as a Tiger being hugely expensive to take care of and run

No it makes sense. FTs were built to be cheap and mass produced. In fact if you were going to make a WWI film, it was not be terribly hard to just build a few FT tanks for it on a movie budget. The Tigers on the other hand, are symbolic of German over-engineering. The only real knock against the FT is that it was not designed with maintenance in mind.

Every field of vehicles seems to have this phenomenon. For planes, it’s the AN-2. For tanks, the Renault FT. For submarines, it’s the Stirling engine. For ships, it’s the USS Constitution. For trains, it’s the Union Pacific “Big Boy.” For cars, it’s the Model T. There is always one specific make of machinery that is freaking IMMORTAL, and for absolutely no reason other than “Does it run? It’s fine then.”

To be totally correct this is a pre WW2 “upgraded” version. Armed with a Mac31. Not strictly original FT-17. It also has the updated all steel idler wheels and the bit more heavily armoured drivers vizor.

The Renault FT from WW1 was fitted with 2 armament tipes: a Hotchkiss 8mm Lebel machine gun with 800 shots, or a Puteau 37mm canon with 225 shells.The MAC 31 also called "Reibel machine gun", is based on the MAC 24-29 automatic rifle, cal 7.5mm x 54, but adapted to vehicle and fitted with 100 shot drum magazines

If those short white paint marks are to designate parking spaces then the European’s recognize something Americans Don’t. That people, in the U. S. Like their Government do not pay attention to boundaries, Constitutional, physical or Moral. Where painting is concerned keeping it to a minimum cuts down on materials and their environmental impact as well a future redesign and expense. We do not often Give the French credit they deserve when they come up with good design’s . I feel that the Renault was the Best tank of the First World War compared to its contemporaries.
