The ARL V 39 also known as the ARL 1940 V939 40 was a prototype tank designed to meet France’s demands for a new self-propelled assault gun prior to World War II. It was designed to support eight infantry battalions each with two batteries of three vehicles. Only two complete and functional prototypes were produced armed with a modified 75mm field gun and 7.5mm machine gun. The design project was known as ARL 40 unrelated to the ARL 44 heavy tank.
