The 10th Armoured Division (10e division blindée) was a former unit of the French Army. Created in 1977, it was disbanded in 1997.
The 10th Armoured Division was created on 1 August 1977 at Châlons-en-Champagne (part of Châlons-sur-Marne (at that time)). It formed part of the 1st Army Corps. In 1984, the division was shifted into the 3rd Army Corps. The « modèle 1984 » organisation was a combined-arms force with an effective strength of about 10,000 men.[1]
