They’re probably pretty good at blowing up Africans, which is what they were actually designed for. Tank-equivalent fire support capabilities with a lower logistical footprint and longer combat range, it makes more sense for low-intensity conflicts like the ones France frequently finds itself in. The same is true for a lot of their other equipment
lol most leo2s sit in a repair facility in lithuania because the ukies cant repair them in ukraine and funny enough they cannot be repaired in lithuania either because the manufacturer cant produce new spare parts fast enough.
it will be similar with the abrams, so if the french tank is easier to maintain it will win the competition simply by actually being able to be kept operational and actually being in ukraine when the "superior" tanks sit in repair shops 1000km away and wont return to the front for half a year.
>the french tank
Is not what the AMX-10RC is.
And I wouldn't expect the Leclerc to be any less of a logistics hassle than a Leo 2, quite the opposite actually just going by the number built and the number of countries operating it.

a tank btw is a container for liquids. for example my grandma has a heating oil tank.
Got any, I dunno, evidence for this claim ? Or are you just some thirdie who the French beat up in a colonial war some time ago and you still hold a grudge ?
They work if you don’t throw them into hardened defensive lines. Having a couple of small groups behind enemy lines doing hit and runs would be devastating.
Plebbit on r/has said that this is not a scout armoured vehicle, but a tank destroyer able to destroy whole columns of T-90Ms.

in frontal assaults against dug in troops yes.
They belong in Africa
>the war in Ukraine is the standard for everything and anything
moron
Convert them into assault guns, or mortar carriers.

also expeditionary warfare in the middle of the africa. you can't transport tanks to the middle of the continent easily.

do you not understand what a scout is?

theres 600,000 Russians on a narrow breadth of land 100km deep. My guess there is not much running
the russian army has no future, their performance in ukraine shows it

git gud
Weren't Humvees responsible for several crucial early advances on the Ukrainian end?
Maybe the Russians are just using them wrong.
