The B-26 Marauder was a medium bomber, designed to be used both for high altitude bombing but to also provide close air support to Allied troops if necessary. France acquired a number of B-26C Marauders after Operation Torch in 1942, replacing the LeO 451s and Douglas DB-7s. They were used in the Allied invasions of Italy and southern France. After the war, most of them were retired, but some stayed for training and testing; one was even converted to test the early SNECMA ATAR jet engines.

It was introduced in Update "Wind of Change". This version of the B-26 Marauder under French service, designated as the B-26C, is virtually the same as the B-26B found in the American tech tree, save for the livery. The different designations were intended to distinguish the batch of extended wing B-26 variants that were produced in Omaha, Nebraska instead of Baltimore, Maryland. Compared to the previous French bombers, the Marauder serves as a "middle ground" between a massive, high-flying bomber like the N.C.223.3 and various fast but lightly armed bombers like LeO 451. The plane is quite sluggish for a medium bomber, but featuring protection and payload closer to that of a heavy bomber. This allows the Marauder to either be used for bombing bases, attacking columns of vehicles, or providing close air support in ground and naval battles with great efficiency.
