Now that I can see the suspension clearly, this looks like a French reworking of the German Jagdpanther. I know that the French army used these and Panthers for some time after WW II, but I can,t find your specific pictures.

Well, it is the AMX-50 "Foch".

The first AMX-50 MBT only had a 105mm gun, so this TD fitted with a 120mm gun was designed.

So, not a Panther, but a relative of the Königstiger...

That was a tough one. Here's one that may be easier.

Close enough Shawn. It's a Type 74, the one with an elevating or lowering suspension. Now for a modern era APC--this time an easy one. What's this?
