The Leclerc's Get BUFFED.. Again? - War Thunder

[@Tacom01]

They are making preparations for adding a Premium Leclerc, calling it now

[@4sk4rd]

Probably and then everyone gets in a ruckus about the 5sec reaload like they did with the Type 90

[@Super_Black1]

France needs a top tier light tank, the VBCI just isnt good enough

[@thatoneguy1741]

And it will be mine , the gap from 8.7 to the leclercs is horrid

[@philipped.r.6385]

​@@Super_Black1It might a bit too new and some info might still be unavaillable or even classified, but the EBRC Jaguar would be perfect I think. It's essentially a light recon tank with a 40mm autocannon and ATGMs. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/EBRC_Jaguar

[@mamarussellthepie3995]

Rip Xd

[@Bergebis]

Glad the Leclerc has got a bit more going for it now. That being said, France needs some top tier Light tanks/IFVs to round out the line up, and there are plenty of options: EBRC Jaguar Panhard Sphinx VBCI PHILOCTETES AMX10 RC T40

[@SHARX-6]

You forgot the VEXTRA

[@hashbrown2911]

France and Britain would both really benefit from some high tier lights with the CT40

[@philipped.r.6385]

It's surprising how much France is light in the light tank department knowing that the French post WWII doctrine put a lot of importance on very mobile light forces equiped with light tanks. They could have added the uparmored version of the AMX-10RC ages ago.

[@MrNilion]

Deffinetly, the AMX-32s and AMX-40 needs some backup around their BR so you could easily fit in a light tank around 9.7 and then one around 11.0 to match the Leclercs aswell.

[@collander7766]

[@keefe20x6]

I found it amusing the Leclerc's line goes from 8.7 AMX 30 straight to top tier Leclerc, has to be one of the biggest jumps in the tech trees.

[@shadowconquer-yv5yd]

Back when the only SPAA you get in the tree before the 30 DCA was the AMX-13 DCA 40 it was also a pretty big jump. 4.7 to 8.3.

[@Iron_Blood_Enjoyer1933]

If only we could get more Irish vehicles in the game, as they do have some good options. Such as: The Landsverk L-60 (Strv m/38, m/39, m/40K & m/40L), the Churchill Mk. VI, the A34 comet (Including the special variant with no turret and armed with the 90mm Pansarvärnspjäs 1110 recoilless rife in an open mount, The Headless Coachman), the FV101 Scorpion (Once Britain gets it first), the AML-90, the Vickers Medium Mk. D, the MOWAG Piranha IIIH, and more. For aircraft too, there's multiple options.

[@Hawkeye6941]

I just want more light vehicles for France, they could add the 120mm vextra , their recon vehicles like the VBL mk3, AMX 10 T40(Testbed for turret), EBRC jaguar. There much more light vehicles they can add.

Do you guys know when they are going to change the visuals for the Khrizantema-s in 3rd person? The right missile in 3rd person is always missing no matter the ammo count, in game anyways is getting kinda old now.

[@johnfang6673]

Bringing the AMX-10rc as a realistic french lineup for scouts sometimes can one-shot to humiliate those MBTS😂

[@nofwild6325]

You know, you mentioned spall liners, and I never thought of that when I play my Leclercs so I looked it up, and from what I found, all the leclercs should get spall liners.

[@agentgollem1919]

irl it has a spall liner just not in game...

[@frenchouiaboo816]

I agree that the OFL-120 F1 feels very bouncy and doesn't do much post pen damage

[@mrdiaz45diaz78]

I have to say it French tank with American pillow but no French pillow?🤨

[@qiqi5217]

I think the spike missiles got buffed, alot easier to lock on now, u shld try it!

[@raizencore]

OFLE120F2 would be a good addition now with the 5 second reload.

[@kabzebrowski]

Welp, it's still subpar even with the reload buff. The firepower is nice, sure, that's not the issue, it's the complete lack of armor, survivability, and the gimped mobility. IIRC the Leclercs have the 2nd worst neutral steering and hull traverse out of the top tier MBTs. There's a video someone tested on that, pretty sad for a MBT that's supposed to be mobile.

[@mcpuckles1459]

Been focusing on my french tech tree after this buff. All france is missing is the OFL 120 F2, but either way best MBT in the game IMO .

[@dominiquepois8034]

And maybe eventually nexter new Shard, granted we have no info on it but still

[@honeybadgerbomb4469]

Leclercs in this game are tormented, they're missing a true top speed of 90kmh, missing armor, great ammo, third gen thermals, and especially hyperbar's applied acceleration

[@dominiquepois8034]

Yeah it has a 5 speed in reality, in game it has a 10 SPEED?! like what

[@Thermal6]

were tf did you find 90kmh? it even says 71kmh on their official site?

[@PeterJ1851]

Chally, Leclerc, Merkava and Ariete got the short stick from GJ. Even the official statement from Nexter, who says clearly that the Leclerc´s armor is made to withstand multiple APFDS hits doesn´t matter.

[@aflyingcowboy31]

" Merkava and Ariete" Only these two got the short stick, the Chally 3 and Leclerc are significantly better then them, I would even put the Leclerc at or above the M1 now and the Chally 3 has similar mobility to the M1, with the same turret armour and a better round, the only thing that hurts it is its reload. "Even the official statement from Nexter, who says clearly that the Leclerc´s armor is made to withstand multiple APFDS hits" Nexter can claim whatever they want, we know their armours performance from the Swedish and Greek tank trials. Also this statement doesn't even outline what calibre of APFSDS.

[@PeterJ1851]

@@aflyingcowboy31 Yeah forgot the M1, Merkava is situational, sometimes it bounces rounds sometimes you get lolpenned.

[@Liam-hk7sc]

@@aflyingcowboy31 we also have good intel from yemen, even tho it should have mainly faced heat/heatfs rounds due to the nature of the conflict. i reckon one leclerc out of the 70 sent go severly damaged. if i had to guess, i'd say the leclerc is made to defend against 105 apfsds kinda ""reliably"", and only the 60 degrees frontal arc of the turret is made to take a more intense beating. imo, this tank's main purpose is to fight cold war era asymetrical wars and eat heatfs rounds for lunch, the azur kit developement being a good proof of that. Nexter is certainly doing some marketing move with that statement. whatever nexter says, ingame it's a good enough tank as it always was, and merkava/ariete aren't really getting the love they should. tho i don't know anything about those two so i can't tell by how much

[@rks2306]

The 140mm Leclerc Premium incoming

[@dominiquepois8034]

Obviously

[@nicolaspeigne1429]

The 6 second reload was there for balance purpose, glad they finally reverted it to the og. The Leclerc would benefit from a more modern APFSDS round, and i would like to get the OE 120 F1, an HE shell would be very nice. Otherwise, i jusrt want light vehicles, the french tech tree has plenty of those from reserve until it stops totally at 8.7 at the exception of the premium VBCI (that still has no TT counterpart)

[@OversizedPringleToe]

20:30 YES YOU ARE

[@denisiluta9742]

they dident just change the reload speed on the french, they actualy change the engine sound on some of the italian tanks as well
