I guess most in PPM would know about the image below, but I did not!

I recognise the SU-34 (or similar) aircraft (pity I modelled the SU-33...), however I am interested in the French(?) tank that is also in the image.

Any idea on what real world tank it is based on?

I've always wondered - what is the huge spotlight-like accessory on the left side of the turret?

It could be an infra red light used for very early night vision equipment, some Patton tanks were fitted with such.

With the 2 hatches to close the lamp, it looks like one of those which were used on ships and submarines to communicate via light signal morse code.

Release Grizzly Tank Reder doesn't even look remotely like that one though.

lol!
Grizzly is the most flat tank in the game.
This tank would be closer to a Tesla Tank rather than a Grizzly Tank.

This might as well be just some render they made from a pre-release version.
