There was a perceived need for an indigenous tank development capability, even as the war was still raging on near Germany, and these early developments led to the [[ARL-44]], France's first indigenous tank after WW2. While not an amazingly capable design, the vehicle was still self-produced and served as the basis for future domestic tank developments, which the AMX-50 (TOA100) is a part of. </del>The <del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">requirements for a new tank to supersede the ARL-44 were already under way even as the tank was rolling off production lines, and the </del>AMX 50 project started life as a 30-ton weight class project requirement as NOM 141 (Project 141) in 1945. The familiar oscillating turret on all AMX 50s were introduced in 1949 equipped with a 90 mm gun, which we are all familiar with as the [[AMX M4]]<del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">. However</del>, at this stage, the French Army was no longer content with the 90 mm gun, and the AMX M4 was canceled to make way for a new turret that housed a 100 mm cannon instead<del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">, which became the AMX-50 (TOA100) we know today</del>. Two prototypes were produced, one which was modified from an AMX M4 and one which was built from the ground up as an AMX-50 (TOA100)<del class="diffchange diffchange-inline">. Outside of minor differences in the turret's shape, the prototype based on the AMX M4 did not have return rollers, but the new AMX-50 did come equipped with them</del>. Unfortunately for the AMX-50 (TOA100), the tank's protracted development meant the Army now wanted a 120 mm cannon instead of the 100 mm, and as at this point the hull was grossly underarmored and was lacking in many other technical areas as well, development of the AMX-50 shifted to what would now be known as the [[AMX-50 Surblinde]] instead.  </div></td><td class='diff-marker'>+</td><td style="color:black; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #a3d3ff; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div>The AMX 50 project started life as a 30-ton weight class project requirement as NOM 141 (Project 141) in 1945<ins class="diffchange diffchange-inline">, as the prospective next generation domestic French tank after the [[ARL-44]]</ins>.

It features the same armament and turret as the [[Lorraine 40t]] on a more robust chassis, similar to that of the [[AMX M4]]. The AMX-50 (TOA100) is functionally not too different from the [[Lorraine 40t]] in terms of gameplay - it's a mobile hull with a fast-reloading gun, which doesn't fire APHE but still spalls adequately due to the French AP shell cap. The vehicle, as it is an oscillating turret design with a drum-feed autoloader, cannot fire when it runs out of ammo in the ready rack, and also cannot elevate too high due to how the turret is placed on its oscillating hinge. Armorwise the vehicle isn't particularly well protected, with thin armor all around, but you may be able to survive some lower caliber shots or autocannon fire if you're lucky. Play around the flanks, preferably around slight hills or ridges you can peek around sideways, and you can penetrate most enemies without issue. If you see an enemy you can't penetrate frontally or aren't confident, you can always shoot the barrel then use the extra time to shoot a very specific weakspot. A good example would be seeing something like an [[IS-3]] or [[IS-6]], while you could simply shoot the weakspots such as the front armour weld on the IS-3 or the mantlet/unangled upper plate of the IS-6, you could shoot their barrels out then take a careful shot if you're not feeling it then.  </div></td><td class='diff-marker'> </td><td style="background-color: #f9f9f9; color: #333333; font-size: 88%; border-style: solid; border-width: 1px 1px 1px 4px; border-radius: 0.33em; border-color: #e6e6e6; vertical-align: top; white-space: pre-wrap;"><div>The '''{{Specs|name}}''' is a rank {{Specs|rank}} French medium tank {{Battle-rating}}, introduced in [[Update 1.75 "La Résistance"]].
