Amazing!
You should be pushing for Leclerc improvements instead of flagging & defaming everyone.
I guess removing the side turret bustle ERA on the S1 and S2 is up next?
S21 supposedly saved weight by using ERA elements on the turret bustle. Then using that weight to improve frontal turret armor. S1 and S2 i guess only used composites on the bustle sides?

We do have any sources that states that?
Sources i can point to? No
French wikipedia mentions it has one of the notable changes for S21 (They cite a “Trucks and tanks Magazine” piece from 2018)
What S1 and S2 use exactly idk, some composite i guess.
As far as I’m aware it’s about Leclerc XXI having ERA between the composite armor and the storage boxes (if I’m understanding it correctly) so they all keep the ERA but XXI would get some extra between armor components
I remember there being a historical report about this on the old forum, it’s hard to find now
Maybe? But that wouldn’t explain why the ERA is mentioned as a weight saving measure allowing for new material to be used on the frontal arc to improve protection.
It does essentially hinge on what is actually said in the French magazine article and how true that actually is. But i dont know anything about the magazine to know of the sourcing is garbage and idk where one could find a release to check
The sources used for the doc are marked at the end of the doc. And if the Leclerc designers aren’t reliable enough sources, I don’t know what to say…
Can you send me all the sources? I can try to make another bug report.
Do we have some info about the turret rotation? Its correct? It can be better?
Who are you asking?
All of you so we can make another report
Our first LWS Leclerc.
I guess S2 AZUR does indeed replace S2 for me.
Why would you. You can get 4 mbt instead of 3
Cause I don’t have the crewslots for that.
I think I have 7 or 8. 2 or 3 are aircraft/SPAA.
Which leaves 4 or 5 for tanks. 2 light vehicle slots, and the rest MBTs with maybe a funny tank slot.
It looks like they changed the optics on the Leclerc like they did everything else but will be a nice change depending on what you value more i guess
Idk where to look at it, its heither a buff and a nerf depends on how you look it, i would rather have the changed one tho
that’s what i was thinking idk if this is a buff or a nerf
in cqb it is certanly, imho, do we have info on the sights used?
I like where all of this is going, if we can get some other stuff fixed it would be nice
