The FT was the first armored tracked vehicle or "tank" to have its armament within a fully rotating turret, The Renault FT's basic configuration - turret in the front, engine compartment in the back and protruding tracks (at least in front) - inaugurated the standard pattern repeated in most tanks to this day.
Armour historian Steven Zaloga has called the Renault FT "the world's first modern tank". - Wikipedia
