🇫🇷 AMX-56 Leclerc
Land · KNDS France (eski GIAT/Nexter) — Fransa 🇫🇷 · 1992 (XLR modernizasyonu 2023'ten beri teslim ediliyor)
France's light (~57 t) and fast main battle tank: an autoloader feeding its 120 mm/L52 gun drops the crew to 3 and fires ~12 rounds per minute. Hydropneumatic suspension and a 1,500 hp engine push it to 72 km/h on roads; the XLR version ties it into the Scorpion combat network.
