It is in running order and has taken part in Carrousel displays. It came from the Etablissement d’Etudes et de Fabrications d’Armement de Bourges (EFAB) (Bourges Armament Study and Manufacturing Establishment). When it was moved it was missing its howitzer armament, which had been replaced by a steel plate. In 1983, however, one was provided by EFAB. This howitzer had been on exhibition there and may well have originated in this tank.
