It’s be nice if the next BeNeLux addition wasn’t just a derivative of a German/British/American design though
Outside of the Fokkers it’s not a particularly inspired subtree
And that’s actually a great capability gap where BeNeLux could shine
I don’t believe France has fielded or even tested anything other than some MRAPs with APS
I remember going there during an open day when you could actually walk inside the VCC and seeing the T18 Boarhound. It was around the same time as the War Thunder event, so I was genuinely surprised to see one there lmao, as I thought they’d all been scrapped. I should still have a folder somewhere with a bunch of pictures of the vehicles there, actually. iirc, the Boarhound was in a pretty sad state, with all its tires deflated.
T18, T14, Excelsior. VCC has hidden gems in there
For the Benelux it’s the CV9035NL MLU and the Cockerill 3030 turret that both have an APS system either in service (with the Dutch) or undergoing trials (with Belgium).

Leclerc evolution
yea, i really should plan a trip there again! the last time i was there was in 2018 for Tiger Day. i even have a cool video of me and like 10 other guys watching Tiger 131 start up while they were doing a test run.
Funnily enough next to 131 currently is a Nashorn on loan from Belgium. (These images are from August this year)
France Germany Japan China (technically they have the vt5 but I don’t think that works lmao) same with Italy kf41 technically has one but… We know strikeshield and Sweden but idk if they have anything par 2a8

VT4A1 has APS
Stuff like this makes me miss living near bovington
Half hour trip for me which is a bonus.
Does that actually work idk I’m kinda glueless here
Yep, its the one with Hardkill APS
And then also embt 2022
Sweden will probably get the Norwegian 2A8NO with Trophy. Plus the 123A/123B are 2A8/2A8 standard tanks so we’ll see.
Must be wrong then :3 I thought it was a shitty one that didn’t work
Only these Four for now, all other ones have at least one vehicle with APS.
