The FCM 36 Pak 40 is a French tank destroyer that was developed during World War II, based on the chassis of the FCM 36 light tank. It was armed with the powerful 75 mm Pak 40 anti-tank gun, which could penetrate most Allied tanks at long ranges. The idea was to use captured French tanks and convert them into tank destroyers by the Germans. In 1943, ten FCM 36 tanks were converted into tank destroyers by Baukommando Becker. The vehicles fought in France with the Verstärkte Schnelle Brigade West.
In World of Tanks, the FCM 36 Pak 40 is a tier 3 premium tank destroyer that can perform well in different roles and situations. It has a reliable frontal armor, a fast-firing gun, and good mobility. The FCM 36 Pak 40 can snipe, flank, brawl, or support depending on the needs of the team. However, the FCM 36 Pak 40 also has some weaknesses, such as weak side and rear armor, low alpha damage, and poor gun depression. The FCM 36 Pak 40 requires good situational awareness, positioning, and angling to make the most of its strengths and minimize its drawbacks.
