The Ares version of the Leclerc prototype would have been a perfect complement to the 10.3 premium, as would another prototype version for the 10.3 tree. But still nothing. Our flak for the 2nd GM or Cold War period still doesn’t exist. Despite the VBCI, still no IFV. And our two poor battleships are no match for the multitude of battleships/battlecruisers facing us. In short, nothing.
As someone said on the French-speaking community channel, we’ll have to wait for the official release, then maybe we’ll get a surprise…
I present to you the Leclerc XLR, basically a Modernized Leclerc with additional armor similar to the AZUR kit… this tank feature notable addition such as the capacity to fire programable ammunition…
One more time Gaijin show us their suprising skill to add inadequate things to the french tech tree 👏👏
Personally, I would have settled for a 5s refill and the F2 + AZUR kit. It would have been magnificent. Now it’s just a cut-and-paste with a half-helpful plate extension.
That was obvious from the get go, the AZUR kit is designed to counter RPGs in an urban environment, which is a type of combat that just isn’t portrayed in War Thunder. It should’ve been added as an add on package like the TUSK for the M1 SEP, and even then it would’ve been quite pointless.
Requiring a full 410k RP + the RP for the mods is insane.
