AMX-40

AMX-40 ved Musée des Blindés i Saumur.

AMX-40 er en fransk stridsvogn bygget for eksport. Den har en 120 mm kanon med en 20 mm maskinkanon montert koaksialt (samme akse) med hovedskytset. Vognen ble utviklet av GIAT, men stridsvognen Leclerc (designet for å erstatte AMX 30) ble isteden tatt i bruk av det franske forsvaret, og GIAT hadde ikke suksess på eksportmarkedet heller. AMX-40 er ikke lenger tilgjengelig for kjøp.

Utviklingen av AMX-40 begynte i 1980 som nytegnet design uten tidligere forbilder. I 1983 ble den første prototypen ferdigstilt og presentert for utstillingen Eurosatory for dette året. Ytterligere to prototyper ble produsert i 1984; den fjerde og siste ble fabrikkert i 1985. Imidlertid greide man ikke å skaffe seg utenlandsk salg, den nærmeste synes å ha vært Spania. I 1990 oppga fabrikanten å tilby den for eksport.[1]
