3 seconds
2 sec looks a bit copium
Im very confused about the front hull armor of the Leclerc, where did Gaijin even get the dimensions and protection estimates of the composite from? All the info i could find of the Swedish mbt trials only showed the turret, and the discrepancy between the MSC and production Leclerc are bizarre, especially on the sloped front plate that on the Leclerc cant even stop 3bm22 while the MSC can stop 3bm42 in some places
Think the french MOD showing it as about 4.8 seconds not 3.5 is pretty accurate bud.
Hes not just pulling numbers out thin ai
Please note that the French MoD video does not show the entire cycle.
The missing parts take up a second, making the cycle 6 seconds long.
Me when I can’t accept the fact that NATO can make faster autoloaders than Russia.
Honestly its gettin funny at this point.
In my opinion, it’s the other way around.
Many people here deny the manufacturer’s documentation, make incorrect cycle measurements that only cover part of it, and for some reason turn a blind eye to the fact that at least 7 seconds pass between shots.
Oh yeah, and they’re also inventing some “emergency” reloading modes. Show me that button on the remote, or even one mention of it.
Manufacturers clearly states that Leclerc can reload much faster than 6 seconds, hell even 5 seconds.
Its just that you’re ego can’t accept the fact NATO can produce better equipments than Russia.
Honestly after reading your replies to @An_Pigeon I realized that you’re just wasting everybody’s time.
Does it?
Ignoring countless sources that indicates or shows that Leclerc can reload under 6 seconds while showing me some questionable sources that can’t be find through online search doesn’t suit you at all.
Of all the people I thought you were better than this.
I’m citing both their own brochure and their own specs submitted to the UK MOD? What do you mean? These are direct claims from the manufacturer?
Same manufacturerer also claims it can reload significantly faster.
So what is it going to be Gunjob?
Should we take this “as marketing lie” like Gaijin claimed on EFT’s flight performance bug report?
In this case I’ll choose to believe the actual report that has led us to 5 second reload time, hell even Gaijin knew Leclerc can reload in 5 seconds and even faster all those years yet they kept it back due to balance reasons.
WHERE?! and do not link me some defence blog/news/media post. Give me a brochure or manufacturer webpage stating as much?
How about you go find that bug report that has led us to 5 second reload and look for the details.
Honestly I don’t understand what you and that funny guy who’s calling himself Ralin trying to accomplish in here but let me tell you, I’m not interested at all.
Also documents from UK MOD about Leclerc( which is questionable whether source itself was displaying full capabilities of Leclerc or not) is not something I’ll take seriously.
I did its all just defence magazines, encyclopaedia’s and authored books, nothing direct from GIAT certainly not a primary source in there at all. All of the primary sourcing claims 6 second reload.
If gaijins devs do decide to act upon the recent report and give leclerc a 6 second reload, I fully believe the likes of abrams could lose their 5 second reload as that is completely unbalanced.
Funny how countless videos,secondary sources suddenly becomes irrevelant when it comes proving your point.
I think situation is rather clear.
I have a better idea.
How about we buff Type-10’s reload up to 2.5 seconds and Leclerc’s reload to 4 seconds with emergency mode while giving. 3.2-3.4 second reload to Leopards,Abram’s while keeping Challengers at 5 second despite multiple secondary sources states loader can push much faster than 5 seconds in real life.
I wonder what Gunjob would feel about it :)
Nah man don’t be dramatic with it eh. I’m merely discussin it without malice
I’m just joking man don’t worry :)
Im good with every buff for every tank what I can’t stand is that some people can’t accept the fact that other nations can also produce good capabilities.
There is a whole bug report made by wareta about it if i remember well.
