They were specialized in the construction of armoured vehicles for the French Army. The workshops were also known by the acronym AMX where A stands for Ateliers and MX stands for Moulineaux. Armored vehicles designed by Ateliers de construction d'Issy-les-Moulineaux had the acronym AMX in front of the name such as AMX-13, AMX-30.
