Vent, søger Tank Destroyer for dig ...

Flere modeller af tårnet (AMX ELC bis) blev testet på chassis fremstillet af planer skabt af Hotchkiss. Køretøjets drivhjulsophæng havde fire vejhjul og to topruller på hver side. Et nyt chassis begyndte udviklingen i 1957 og blev afsluttet i 1961 under betegnelsen ELC bis; Denne nyere prototype havde fem vejhjul pr. Side. Prototypen er bevaret på Museum of Armour i Saumur.

General Characteristics

The ELC EVEN 90 was a prototype light tank destroyer developed in France by Brunon-Valette as part of the “Engin Léger de Combat” (ELC) project during the mid-1950s. The goal was to create a highly mobile, heavily armed, and extremely small vehicle that could be air-transported for rapid deployment and capable of countering heavier Soviet tanks like the IS-3. The project prioritized miniaturization and firepower over armor, resulting in one of the smallest armored fighting vehicles ever conceived.

Powerplant and Mobility

Engine: SOFAM Type 4 GSr 4-cylinder gasoline engine (or similar).
Engine Power: 134 kW (180 hp) or 120 hp, depending on the specific prototype.
Power/Weight Ratio: Approx. 20 hp/tonne.
Maximum Speed (Road): Up to 80 km/h (50 mph) in some variants; typical operational speed around 60 km/h.
Suspension: Torsion bar suspension.
Design Note: The extremely low profile and light weight gave the vehicle exceptional camouflage characteristics and high tactical mobility.

Armament and Protection

Main Armament: 90 mm DEFA D.915 low-pressure gun (or similar D.914).
Ammunition Type: Primarily fin-stabilized HEAT (High-Explosive Anti-Tank) rounds (e.g., ENERGA or OCC-90-62).
Rate of Fire: Some variants featured an **autoloader** system with a short reload time between shells in the clip.
Ammunition Capacity: Approx. 45 rounds (some sources cite 34 rounds in the hull and 19 in the turret).
Secondary Armament: 1 x 7.5 mm AAT-52 coaxial machine gun.
Maximum Armor (Hull Front): 10–15 mm (sloped at up to 80° on later hulls).
Armor Note: The armor was designed only to protect against heavy machine gun fire (7.62 mm rounds) and shell fragments. It offered no protection against dedicated anti-tank weaponry.
