The AMX-50 was a French heavy tank project that started in 1949 and aimed to create a modern and powerful tank that could rival the German Tiger II and Panther. The AMX-50 had several innovative features, such as an oscillating turret, a 120 mm gun, and a Maybach engine. However, the project faced many technical and political difficulties, and was eventually cancelled in the late 1950s. The AMX-50 never entered service, but influenced the design of later French tanks, such as the AMX-30 and the Leclerc.
