Renault armoured car

Renault armoured cars were a number of armoured car variants produced in France during the First World War.

Variants
• Renault modele 1914 automitrailleuse : Renault 18hp chassis with 95/160 engine. The first 100 were extemporised but a standard armoured body form followed with a machine gun at the rear. Together with twin rear tyres this formed the Modele 1915 variant. • Renault autocanon :The same Renault chassis and armoured body as the Mle 1915 but with a 37mm gun protected by a shield. • Renault autoblindee :Renault AM with guns removed and used as unarmed transports. Some early AM had been fitted with single 8 mm Lebel St Étienne 1907 light machine gun for use as mobile anti-aircraft weapons. They had proved not to be effective in this role and were disarmed. == References ==
