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

The Schneider CA 1 (originally called the Schneider CA) ended up being 1st French tank. The tanks had been trusted in combat over the last war years. Their first action on 16 April 1917 ended up being mainly a deep failing, the tank units suffering heavy losses, but subsequent engagements had been more lucrative. In 1918 the Schneider tanks played an important rôle in halting the German Spring Offensive and breaking the German front within the French summer offensives. They were active before the end of September 1918, lower than two months prior to the Armistice of 11 November 1918, their figures having dropped quite a bit because of attrition. After the war the surviving tanks were mostly rebuilt as energy automobiles but six Schneider tanks were deployed by Spain in Morocco, the type seeing its final action at the start of the Spanish Civil War.
