== Development ==

It was designed for a 25-ton weight class, which is twice the weight of the [[AMX-13]]. Its primary armament was a 90mm [[cannon]], and was operated by 4 crew members. Its speed could reach 65&nbsp;km/h. Two prototypes were made before it was set aside. However, some principles of creation of the tank and some of its technology was used in other French [[Armoured fighting vehicle|AFV]]s. Some variants hashave been developed, but none of these were ever used in active service with the French Army.<ref name=SUR/><ref name=jed>{{Cite web|url=http://www.jedsite.info/tanks-bravo/bravo/bc_series/bc-series.html|title=Batignolles-Chatillon}}</ref>
