Each tank will be fitted with the army's new Scorpion information system. In addition to a complete overhaul of their components, which will be carried out by cannibalizing parts from a stock of decommissioned tanks "mothballed" by the French army, the Leclercs will also receive new equipment. So far, some €321 million have been budgeted to cover the costs of the XLR program, according to Cédric Perrin, vice-president (Les Républicains, right) of the French Senate's Foreign Affairs, Defense and Armed Forces Committee. The production line of Leclerc tanks was shut down by Nexter in 2007 due to a lack of new orders (only France and the United Arab Emirates have purchased them, 406 units for the former, 388 for the latter), which is why the French government opted to modernize existing units, pending the hypothetical development of a new model that is not expected before the mid-2030s at best. It is no longer possible for a modern army to do without such equipment as the Netherlands did in the early 2010s.

"All the components will be removed and then reassembled with new, more modern equipment," explained Thomas N., the workshop manager (the names of the employees are not provided for security reasons). 30 operators worked around these carcasses. Lined up side by side, it was as if the 60-tonne monsters had been cut up, their turrets removed from the chassis, their treads unrolled on the ground. In the huge hangar, half a dozen Leclerc tanks were laid out like gutted beetles. Subscribers only A Leclerc XLR tank manufactured by the KNDS consortium, which includes and KMV and Nexter, on June 13, 2018. But some experts believe the planned 'retrofit' is insufficient in view of the lessons learned from the war in Ukraine.īy Cédric Pietralunga Published on July 7, 2023, at 3:51 am (Paris), updated on July 7, 2023, at 8:36 am 200 units will need to be modernized between now and 2029.
