Description

During the invasion of France hundreds of French tanks were captured, including the Hotchkiss 39(H) tanks. These vehicles were converted to anti-tank and self-propelled artillery vehicles. Between 1942 and 1943, 48 Hotchkiss H-39 tanks were converted to artillery platforms. These vehicles mounted 10.5cm howitzers. Most of these conversions used the leFH 18 howitzer, but a few were converted using the leFH 16 howitzers. The only known surviving vehicle is located at the Saumur Museum in France.
