The B1 tank is a French heavy battle tank, designed in the interwar period and used at the start of World War II. A very advanced design for the time, the B tanks nevertheless proved to be quite unsuitable for the rapid operations of the Battle of France in May-June 1940.

Its design began in the 1920s, with several prototypes. The Renault model was chosen in 1929 but production did not begin until 1934.
