A special version of the already well-known Leclerc MBT! The AZUR variant is fitted for urban combat environments, and will be coming to the French ground forces tree at the end of the Leclerc MBT line in the Sons of Attila major update!
Leclerc AZUR, MBT, France, rank VII
Features:
- ERA protection on the hull sides.
- Shaped charge protection around the engine compartment.
- Roof-mounted 7.62 machine gun.
In 2004, the French Army’s Technical Department developed the AZUR (an acronym for Action en Zone Urbaine) modernization kit for Leclerc main battle tanks. This new kit includes ERA protection for the sides of the hull, cage armor around the engine compartment, a remote-controlled 7.62 machine gun on the turret roof, a mast with a panoramic surveillance device, as well as other improvements. The first tank modernized under this program was first shown at the Eurosatory Exhibition in June 2006, and in 2011, the UAE’s Armed Forces placed an order for AZUR kits for their own Tropicalisée Leclerc tanks.
In the upcoming “Sons of Atilla” major update, the imposing Leclerc AZUR tank will be at the top of the MBT line in the French ground research tree. What does this vehicle have to offer? Just like the recently announced Leopard 2 PSO for Germany, the AZUR was developed specifically for urban combat. Let’s dive into the details!
Urban combat involves close-range engagements with the use of anti-tank missiles that are used by infantry. Therefore, tanks that fight in these areas must have adequate protection from enemy infantry at close ranges as well as good visibility in tight areas. Based on these requirements, the AZUR kit for the Leclerc was developed. Comparing it to the S2 version that you may already be familiar with, the Leclerc AZUR receives additional protection on the side of the hull in the form of ERA blocks, and cage armor to protect the rear mounted engine from shaped charge ammunition. In addition to that, there is a handy little 7.62 mm remote-controlled machine gun on the roof turret!
The addition of this extra protection means that you’ll have an increase in defense against shaped charged rounds, such as HEAT-FS. Aside from that, the Leclerc AZUR still retains its powerful main advantages — good protection at the front and sides of the turret, good mobility and an accurate and powerful 120 mm gun with an autoloader. And that’s not all — the ammunition that can be carried is also the same as the already formidable Leclercs, which includes HEAT-FS as well as two APFSDS rounds. The best round has a base penetration value of over 570 mm!
This notable addition of the Leclerc AZUR will be waiting for you in the French ground research tree, and will arrive very soon as part of the upcoming “Sons of Attila” major update. Until then, enjoy your matches and see you soon!

Comments will be premoderatedIt needs a better round.
Agreed, I think the OFL 120 F2 would be a good add for the AZUR
Utterly pointless addition that's actually a downgrade over the SXXI because gaijin chose the S2 as base, so you lose the CITV. AZUR package offer only 20mm KE protection and 450mm CE, so it'll be stopping neither 30mm APFDS nor top tier ATGMs, so it's still a free kill for a BMP-2M. Still has the second worst round of 11.7. Still has the same reload. Still has the godawful ahistorical frontal armor. This should've been a mod like the TUSK package, not a 400k+ RP new tank.
So an upgrade for the Leclerc S2 we already have in game. This could easily be a modification instead of a new tank, France does not need ANOTHER mbt. Also, can we please have top mounted MGs? Plenty of images of standard Leclercs having top mounted MGs, it's just nice QoL and I don't get why you're not doing it. Care to explain?
So, despite the numerous reports, including the one with primary source, you are still going with the idea of giving it ERA instead of NERA ? Considering that NERA would give more much needed KE protection, I find it pretty sad…
So no OFL 120 F2, no CITV despite all the outcry about it being S.2 instead of SXXI, and still no word about AA MGs on the other Leclercs. Why is this? Any good reason here at all?
Let me guess, this generation retains OFL F1 APFSDS while Leclerc S2 was already firing OFL F2 next generation shell.
aren't the additional pieces of armour supposed to be NERA and not ERA?
its supposed to be ERA with 100mm of kinetic protection and stuff i think
Lol, you highlight the point of the shell that is in fact the issue, it's the same shell since the leclerc s1, that were one of the best shell, and since, every nation apart the brits gets better and better shell and now we are at a point where the french top tier have the worst shell with the brits, it could be good to give something as good as the other at least or MAYBE give the true specs of the shell, I won't link secret docs even Wikipedia says 600mm pen at 2000m.
where s OLF F2 APFSDS??
I need better boulets (F2 round).
