Tank description:

The BDR G1 B is a French tier 5 heavy tank.The project of a new vehicle was suggested by engineers of the Baudet-Donon-Roussel company in June 1938, but the design was never developed.The BDR G1 B, or "Steel Potato", represents a significant departure from previous French heavy and medium tanks. Whereas the B1, D2, and D1 are all very heavily armored for their tiers and often struggle to penetrate and damage higher tier tanks, the G1 B, once fully upgraded, has absolutely no problems with firepower. Unfortunately, the G1 B is nowhere near as well-protected or durable as its predecessors for its tier. However, it more than makes up for this with its fantastic top gun, the 90 mm DCA 30, which is easily capable of destroying equal and higher tier tanks. The BDR G1 B along with the KV-1 is one of the few tier V''s that can actually pit their weight in tier VII matches. Thanks to Italian Tanks update, the BDR G1 B now has an acceptable rate of fire from what it used to be, and also got a dispersion penalty buff (lower on the move and on turret traverse) as well as the accuracy being 0.38 compared to old 0.4 on the 90MM DCA 30 cannon. BDR G1 B also now has 50 more hitpoint on both turrets.The BDR G1 B leads to the ARL 44.
