Understandable, have a good day.

Reload is more than just the time from open door to closed door though.
It includes the gun laying to the position.
And just cause that’s not animated in War Thunder currently doesn’t mean it’s not simulated [very simplistically mind you] by having the longer reload.
Yes, Abrams and Leopard loaders can do a 7 round sprint at 3.6 seconds per round.
Yes, Leclerc can load in 5 seconds gun level.
Type 10 3.5 gun level.
T-72 less than 7.1 seconds gun level and round in next slot.
So yeah. In the game’s current system loading is slower, but it’s simple and thanks to that less intensive as well as faster in all other situations where reload would slow.

False, reload is just reload, what you mean is reload process, and its not currently implemented in War Thunder correctly.
You’re wrong, its even less that that, however at the cost of damaging the tank, moreover that reload time couldn’t be implemented because of balance in fact, since having a reload time of 3 if not less second could cause unbalancing.
Actualy proof you don’t readed, gun doesn’t have to be leveled, it does have to be in resting position.
T Series generally don’t need to have the gun on level, though i’d give you that, because im not 100% sure on that.
Cool, can they do that while closing blast doors in the process, you have to remember this fact, having the blast doors opened during the whole process doesn’t matter, because in War Thunder this is not the case, also its probably prohibited during an actual conflict since it would affect the survability of the tank.
Also, following your logic, shouldn’t those tank be affected as well if the barrel is not leveled out? Of course it would be harder to reload if the gun is fully elevated, or if the tank is moving, yet the Abrams for example reload at 5 seconds constantly, for 5 seconds, doesn’t matter the situation its in.

Actually for manually loaded tanks, having the gun elevated is easier for the loader, as it means that the breach is at its lowest point (making it easier to drop the shell than to have to elevate it). Hence why you’ll often see Abrams and Leos elevating their gun just after firing. But your point still stands : only pure reload time is considered (and confirmed by gaijin themselves). Gun elevation, crew tiredness, reloading while moving… is not taken into account. Gaijin mostly goes on the fastest reload theoriticaly possible then adds a bit more for balance.
However, and I’ll keep hammering on that, the leclerc is proven to be able to reload in those 5s, and I, just like many others, would say that having this reload wouldn’t put the Leclerc out of balance. Heck, they even did it for the M1s

The MCS would be a very interesting tank:
- The pre-production Leclercs were produced in 1989 which means that they’d probably use the armour tested by the British in 1990 which was a minimum of 430 KE and 800 CE
- Official testing footage from the French national archives website shows that the turret traverse is 45°/s
- Gen 1 commander and gunner sights
- Should have 90km/h top speed like the production Leclercs
- Would only have access to OFL 120 G1
- Ideally it’s given its 5 second reload
10.3/ 10.7 seems like a good BR, but with the ‘French battle rating tax’ the devs would apply it would probably be 11.0. It would no doubt sealclub 10.0 though.
Also, not as if there's plenty of support vehicles to add around that BR to make a line-up anyway

I just want France to get a Premium/Squadron Top Tier vehicle so that their statistics plummet and Gaijin can’t justify their nerfs by stating that “muh they OP bcuz statistiks say so”. :(
Maybe a Squadron United Arab Emirates Leclerc would do the trick.

Can’t have anything playing France. Can’t even get top-tier premiums to tank the winrate…

Unfortuanely, no. Leclerc UAE is roughly better than the current S1, which according to Gaijin is 11.7 worthy, so…
Leclerc UAE would have:
- Better Sights ( up to 14x instead of the 10x we have currently )
- Thermals for its CITV
- Different Engine
- Roof MG
And well, armor kits, but that is up to Gaijin.

Well, Squadron Vehicles don’t necessarily have to be worse than some of the Top Tier tanks.
I mean, look at M1A1 AIM! One of the best Top Tier American tanks, only behind M1A2 SEP possibly (since SEPv2 is just SEP but heavier and slower).
Also, according to this suggestion, this tank would be the heaviest Leclerc at 57 tons (like AZUR) and its different powerplant would make it accelerate actually slower than the other Leclercs.
So it would basically be a heavier and slower Leclerc S1, while I wouldn’t say the bigger zoom sights aren’t an advantage and the roof MG isn’t that much of a big deal. CITV thermals is nice though.

it would be cool to see it after the amx 40

You generally would be right, however for the moment Gaijin haven’t modeled Hyperbar yet, so i suspect the mobility would be the same roughly.
You are right, however M1A1 AIM does for example lack CITV’s and a better round. Personally i think the only way Gaijin could add the Leclerc UAE as a squadron vehicle would be with a worse round, however this is a thing only Gaijin can deduct.
The gun on level is mentioned in diagramm which is used for T-72/T-64/80 reloads, so it is accounted in reload time IRL, but instinct in game in any form.
In WT blast doors arent even open in any of reload time.
Might be off topic but is a Esport team even playing the Leclerc?
Gaijin don’t make top BR premium/squadron vehicle
Challenger 2 OES, M1A1 AIM and M1A1 HC “Click-Bait” aren’t top BRs out of technicalities, I am sure they can figure anything similar for any tree.

This isn’t a meme at this point, it’s a fucking documentary.
Lmao. Yeah we saw what happened with the TPK and AMX-10P: Barely added to fill a gap only to be receive an increase in BR, recreating the void they were supposed to fill.
And the AMX-40 and Roland have been without a lineup for years, not too mention the entirety of the tree lacking light tanks and support vehicles (the ELC bis doesn’t even get spottig FFS). They seriously expect us to believe that now they’re going to address it?
Yeah, not fucking likely.

ofc not the meta is 2A7V/122B+ lmfao
imo T80BVM is shit actually, it’s really easy to OS beside leo/strv
reverse speed is horrorful and easy breach too
That’s funny since the lack of this lineup is Gaijin’s fault at first.
