Hence, French tanks need more love and hence appear in anime.

Senjou no Valkyria had a King Tiger protagonist tank, Panzers are everywhere in anime, and in fact they are so common that they are pretty much “garden variety”. While I agree there are no beauties behind French lines back then, there are some with reasonable looks. The Char B1 was a small Mk V with a turret, and the SOMUA S35 was a chubby little doll. A wise man once said, “She’s doesn’t look like much, but she’s got it where it counts.” Likewise, these two tanks may require a Newtype to command (guy in turret does EVERYTHING), but they also had moments to shine in the war. One B1 made do with what she had and took out 13 Panzer IIIs on her own. And the S35 was acknowledged as being one of the most advanced tanks early in the war that was let down by incompetent command rather than actual incompetency. I know it will never happen, but if there’s an anime that could bring back some French tanks, I’d like to see the B1 and S35 appear. The B1 girl would be anaemic and a little plump. The S35 representative may be bogged down by her many over-engineered flaws and average looks. But both of them are determinators, and can be surprisingly effective. All they need is a good illustrator and writer and we'd be all falling at their heels. Just see what they did with a certain British rifle! Most of all, they will be entities of rarity and thus symbols of high demand!

I'm having trouble trying to figure out of the turrets/guns are micronized or if she is Meltranized. I'm guessing it's the latter since the guns on the left appear to be in the distance.

I honestly can't wait to see this series. Looks like it might be a cross between Sora no Woto and Strike Witches. I extremely loved both series. Hell its probably intentional since Humikane is doing the character design.
Hah, so I'm not the only person who though "If they did make an anime for that game, this probably will be it." I wonder who Distroyer-chan is?
