====Other nations==== The United States [[Tank Corps of the American Expeditionary Force|Tank Corps]] used tanks supplied by France and Great Britain during World War I. Production of American-built tanks had just begun when the War came to an end. Italy also manufactured two [[Fiat 2000]]s towards the end of the war, too late to see service. Russia independently built and trialed two prototypes early in the War; the tracked, two-man [[Vezdekhod]] and the huge [[Tsar Tank|Lebedenko]], but neither went into production. A tracked self-propelled gun was also designed but not produced.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://vadimvswar.narod.ru/ALL_OUT/TiVOut9801/RuTLe/RuTLe008.htm |title=Легенда о русском танке |publisher=Vadimvswar.narod.ru |access-date=13 May 2012 |language=ru |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130614054809/http://vadimvswar.narod.ru/ALL_OUT/TiVOut9801/RuTLe/RuTLe008.htm |archive-date=14 June 2013 }}</ref> Although tank tactics developed rapidly during the war, piecemeal deployments, mechanical problems, and poor mobility limited the military significance of the tank in World War I, and the tank did not fulfil its promise of rendering trench warfare obsolete. Nonetheless, it was clear to military thinkers on both sides that tanks in some way could have a significant role in future conflicts.<ref name = "Willmott2003">[[#Willmott2003|Willmott (2003)]], ''First World War''{{Page needed|date=May 2012}}</ref>
