The Leclerc is in dire need of a buff

It’s base is wrong. I even made a bug report about it being NERA not ERA which apparently hasn’t even been looked at yet.

707

Thanks for reporting it. Here’s hoping it’ll lead to better protection, but honestly I don’t have high hopes given gaijin’s history.

708

No worries. My report went through now and it has been internally reported. Hoping for the best

Regarding that, if modeled correctly, will Leclerc’s armor receive a big improvement?

Only to the point the other Leclercs are. I don’t have sources on the hull composite only to get AZUR changed to 175mm composite/NERA skirts

Hi,

Got a reply on this issue,
https://community.gaijin.net/issues/p/warthunder/i/2cQLnqc95weq
Someone does have a more valid source or can help me find one?

There would be a book about leclercs, maybe that could help. Someone have this book: ISBN (8364596357).

I’ll have a look what I can find. For the moment you can forward them the links from my suggestion on the old forum. Maybe they’ll accept some of it. Also the mixed ERA/NERA is a concept of XXIs armor not AZUR. AZUR is purely composite skirts

question is that he received this ammunition with delayed explosion?

Le char Leclerc : le fleuron de la cavalerie française. | defense-zone.com.

Personally, I like the phrase “An undercarriage protected by blocks of reactive armor”.

So even if we don’t know exactly what this “reactive” block is made of, given the thickness of the block, maybe we can get an idea?

There you go

Already from one of the articles:

“With a kit AZUR set on the tank in less than half a day without requiring the return to workshop
The protection has been increased following the lessons of Iraq war
The protections passive side, and rear are intended to counter the IED and ALI
The front and side protections of the Leclerc are increased. The rear group, which includes the motor propellant receives protection style railling, which are an excellent protection against RPG This style of protection also extends to the neck of turret and the louvers motor ventilation are protected against Molotov cocktails, as well as air conditioning, which gets treatment
The frontal protection is not affected because the Leclerc is fairly protected in the area.”

Thanks, i updated the issue

724

Updated, unluckily no luck at all tho, i don’t think thats gonna get changed anytime soon… Lately i will try to buy this book ISBN (8364596357) and see if i can find something here

725

Probably for the best. Yet I think they should accept it as source since these were for my suggestion which had enough information to be passed to Devs

726

Don’t know what to say, hope someone here have another source otherwise in 48 hours the report will be closed

727

I’ve been seeing some stuff about a French discord server, maybe they have some sources there
