France’s biggest issue is how overtired some of the vehicles are and the lack of top tier tanks which most of them would be light tanks ( List of Previously Suggested Ideas - French Ground Forces (Please Check Before Creating A New Suggestion!) - France - War Thunder - Official Forum ) the only place France really needs a new spaag is around 6.7 to 7.7 that’s where the 40mm on the amx13 dca becomes absolutely terrible and with naval most nations start out like this in “testing” then get the majority of there navy in the next major update which is silly. and i agree France has one of if the the greatest potential in game I’m hoping with the addition of the vbci 2 (mct30) we see more modern french light tanks i hate this just as much a you because my main nation is France and its slightly depressing how all of the best vehicles are prems and event vehicles surblinde, ebr 1954, super amx 30, vbci 2 , m4 fl10. for helos I’m hoping gaijin can throw us a bone and add the Spanish tiger with spikes to France that would put France in line with Germany and not at any major disadvantage in Helos
Better air tech tree than Soviet?
Well as i see non of german tech tree better than Soviet
Speaking of French there many problem still exist for years and still gaijin don’t even try to fix it such as Leclerc armor and better round for it
(But hey took very short time to robbed Leclerc CITV remember?)
And for me Gaijin really hate everyone that not Russia if not then why give them newest tech for them while other still using decades behind to fight against them?
most of the best aircraft for Germany rn are usually Russian design at least at the higher brs
Still not make it better than USSR equally at worst
If Gaijin loved “Russia” [not a tech tree in WT], then they’d give the Soviets the CITV version of T72B3, but they didn’t.
Gaijin is working on finding out Leclerc armor.
Well they have to give Russia far more modern stuff because western tech is decades ahead. A certain eastern conflict has confirmed that. But its certainly done in such a way that russia always have some kind of advantage. I.e R-27ERs having insane speed and tracking mode
How many years and been passed now and the same problem still exist?
as I remember Leclerc armor problem are exist when it first came out (and same problem still exist)
but when about took out it advantage like CITV its very fast (T-80U don’t have thermal irl yet it still allows to have it)
funny enough when asking western the same year of service too what Russian had or even a little bit older there gonna be something like “ToO aDvAnCE tOo GoOd fOr tHe GaME!!”
Seriously Russians can have 2000+ Tanks SPAA and Strike Aircraft but other can’t have comparable to them they can use newer rounds possible to them but other can’t for example they can have 2018 tanks shooting 2010 ammunition but US can’t even get pass 2000+ in term of ammunition. (Yes, looking at you M829A3)
Just over 1 year.
NEXTER doesn’t disclose information easily; and there might be a French advisor problem similar to how the Chinese advisor was causing issues in gathering accurate information.
Leclerc’s CITV was reported when it released, and it was only removed the update before SXXI was added.
T-80U does have thermals IRL. I think you meant T-80B, however T-80B is the tank they tested the drop-in thermal imager they’d use for T-80Us, so that’s why T-80B has it.
Soviets have the worst CAS in the game [even if it’s still easily usable], always been the case.
And their SPAA is on par with everyone else.
They still only have 1 11.7.
Yet Gaijin “hates” France even though France got a CITV Leclerc the update after they correctly removed CITV from the other Leclercs, have the best CAS in the game, one of the best SPAA in-game.
Yeah, it’s taking a long time to get correct armor on Leclerc. It’s also taking a long time to get separated flares & chaff so we can have accurate countermeasures on jets.
[F-4 Phantom can only have a maximum of 30 flares IRL, 30 flares on F-5s, F-104s… etc]
I vote for Sweden and Japan for that title not soviet one.
name SPAA that have radar angle up to 80 degrees. and 18 range of SAM because as I remember no SAM in the game can do that even ITO-90
Use to had tree top tier tanks T-72B3 and T-80U use to be the same BR as BVM but got downed BR even those even those are on par with the tank we have in the game
France case they can get better round, but no. and Sweden can got better rounds even they came after France. (And they have better tank than France even before got Slpprj M/95)
but i think you’re right about the information of the france military stuff it’s hard to find so might be one of the reason
18km doesn’t mean anything when you can’t hit a nearly perpendicular target going mach 1 at any range.
I need a good ITO player to test against still.
And yeah, I’m slightly unsatisfied that France only has a round as good as 3BM60, but I can make it work.
I’m far more concerned about the armor personally.
I think they need to stop adding anything new… except more spaa. And just fix what is alreadg in game. Challengers have the mobility of an obese toddler
Bug & mechanics fixing teams, & historical research teams, are separate from vehicle addition teams.
i use rolands now at top tier because the ito is so bad at killing jets
Want some practice? Cause I want practice against ITOs.
You can get data for potential bug reports, and I can get data against ITOs.
its not that its unusable its just not worth that hassle
Especially TES that goes heavier than any challenger for nothing
Not gotten it yet, but have seen/heards its appaling
well for me they need both armor and round but yeah armor should be first priority for leclerc case
and for God’s sake they should stop fuel tank being explode I killed many leclerc because of it fuel tank explode and it make no sense at all
French Tiger is also now capable of carrying Akeron MMPs, which could be nice as well
if so would be a good replacement for the HOT, i remember one french tiger enver was able to equip them
