This French text recounts the secret development and deployment of France's 47mm anti-tank gun (Model 1937) during WWII. German intelligence discovered this weapon was the world's best anti-tank cannon in 1939, capable of penetrating 50mm of armor at 500 meters—devastating against Panzer III and IV tanks. Developed urgently in 1936-37 from a naval gun design, it achieved remarkable 855 m/s muzzle velocity. France kept its existence secret to prevent German armor upgrades. By May 1940, 1,268 units were deployed, but this proved insufficient against 2,600 German tanks. The gun's effectiveness shocked German crews who expected invincibility, turning their Panzers into "rolling coffins."
