The "Bonsai" tank is not a French one but an Italian "L3" (presume that the "L" is not the short form for LARGE in this case). It was not a real tank but only a tankette as it was built by many nations in the early 1930ies. Thought to be a "moving pillpox / MG-stand" as support to the infantry, the Italian propagande made TANKS out of this tiny vehicles...
...later on the British propaganda counted the as TANKS as well ;-)
