Leclerc clone with all of the Leclerc defects, plus a few good German features from the Leopard.
 
May be a good mediocre tank.

It actually uses Rhein Metal 120mm 55 Cal. gun instead of the french gun. The loader and ammunition stowage is French for sure, but that's not bad. The engine is licenced copy of German MTU890. The armor is modular design, so that it can change to ceramics or ERA depending on the technology they can get hold of. It is designed with active defense system in mind, though they don't have it quite yet.

From what I've read the Leclerc is quite a decent tank.

the French Leclerc is not meirly a "decient" tank, she is a machine that i bet you, could easily wipe out my nations Abrams.  especially in the market of fuel economy...

but hay, the Leclerc is basically an Abrams with better computers, auto-loader, a more efficient diesel engine, more advanced armor, easyer to repair in the field too.

Apparently it is just not very easy to repair in garrison . . .

Due to a lack of spare parts?  Thats hardly a slight on the tank itself.
