It is located in the town of Roanne in the Massif Central, almost mid-way between the cities of Lyon and Saint Etienne. From 1952 the AMX-13 was produced at ARE but in 1964 production was moved to Creusot-Loire at Chalon-sur-Saône, as ARE moved to assembly of the AMX 30 MBT, and the numbers produced declined significantly. ARE manufactured 1900 vehicles of the AMX-13 series.
