Alternative of
Renault FT for telegraph signalisation; the tank was equipped with an
antenna which was fixed on the support present on the turret (TSF =
Télégraphie Sans Fil (wireless) ). |
This version
substituted an enlarged superstructure for the turret, which was to
house the E10. TER transmitter/reciever. Transmitter/recievers were unreliable and their antennae were extremely vulnerable to damage. These versions had no armament, and had three-men crew. 300 TSF Versions were ordered, and at least 188 produced. |
1818-1919. The white disc at the back has no section (platoon) ace, which is logical since the "Signal tank" operates at the company level and not at the section (platoon) level. |
