More than 2,900 French armored vehicles
I mean that mostly of the 2,903 French armored vehicles were captured and converted by the Germans for their own used.Ironmachine wrote:And exactly what do yo mean by that?382 Cavalry AFVs

Re: Captured & converted French equipments in axis service
I suppose that you mean that the French had 2,093 armored vehicles during the 1940 campaign. But that's not correct. The calculation had been made previously and with more accuracy in this forum. Take a look here:

Regarding how many of these were captured and used by the Germans, there is some information here:
