man, france is a sleeper nation. 5 sec reload w/o max crew AND gen 3 gunner thermals. armor sucks but mobility is decent. probably have my favorite cas. loads of countermeasures, good anti tank weapons, thermal targeting pods (aside from 4000), nimble, dodges spaa like a charm. grb maps being smaller is great for the mica too.
Thanks for this, great video - I've gotten to 9.3 in France and have debated if it's worth going beyond that. I'm a Swedish/German main but branching out. GG
The video represents France well, except my only disagreement is with the Mephisto getting a C. It is actually surprisingly effective. I'm a France main and when the Mephisto first cane out I was annoyed and thought it would be bad. But having played it a while it is actually quite good, it's super fast and the missiles are good enough. It's kind of rare that I can't kill a target that I get the jump on even at top tier. I think it deserves a B. But yeah, overall France is great so you should definitely finish your grind. Especially now that Benelux ground is coming. It'll probably be getting some top tier Leopards and an IFV or two to go with the Lecrecs. And yes France does currently have the best CAS lineup.
Very cool analysis video. Didn’t realise the France line up was this stacked. I only have top tier Japan air. I’m almost done with Japan ground tree and I did enjoy the tree as a whole (that 4 sec reaload is magnificent). I’ll probably do the Swedish tech tree next but this video made me consider grinding France. I do have a mirage already (the event 2000 cs4) and it’s a very fun jet. U don’t have top tier japan or Sweden so I can’t request that but I would like to see ur opinion on the Chinese tech tree, they recently just got 2 new planes so I think they could be a decently strong top tier nation. Hope u can have the ability to do other top tier lineups as well in the future 🙏
The Leclerc is actually a really good tank with that new 5 second reload, in my opinion its one of the best MBT's in the game right now. Also, you should do a video on CAS against the pantsirs1 and how mavericks are useless against them because they will just be shot down.
@@SHEEPS_123 it does have it irl it just isnt public and it needs a buff in armor rn it has nothing overly good ompared to its peers if u want reload speed go type 10 if u want armor go 2a7 if u want speed go type 10 the lecrec is just mid
@@SHEEPS_123 sadly like the Merkava's the armor isn't properly modeled, and France isn't too keen on making such info public so it's likely going to stay that way
France overall is a slept-on nation especially at top tier the 5 second autoloader in combination with the f1 round is an amazing combo only real issue is that the Leclerc's feel like they lack a bit of torque at the lower gears
Options for French top tier LeClerc, LeClerc, LeClerc but with a commander sight, LeClerc but with a meaningless bit of ERA or composite, One SPAA, LeClerc again. Also LeClerc
Finished USA, Russia and Sweden. I was between France and Japan as my next tree to try out. This has swayed my opinion towards France. Top Tier Japan just seems like a slightly less powerful Germany, honestly.
Top tier Japan is its own thing, the 4 second reloads are really neat and I wouldn't really say its a weaker Germany since both nations have alot of differences to be compared together
Nobody talks about french top tier, because the journey there is hell. Also the most important role in ground RB is CAS, not MBT. It doesn't matter how good you are, death star in the sky doesn't care.
@@Denkmaldrubernacht players aren't good but I have thousands of matches with USA top tier and I can assure you that vehicles are not good either. Abrams are paper tanks that get disabled on first shot if not killed, you always lose the turret ring, breach or the gunner and cannot fire back. Best SPAA it has is the ADATS that only has 6-7km reliable hitting range before missile loses all it's energy and you have to visually identify targets and can't even lock on if there's slight fog or cloud in the way. Helis are pretty bad too with only being able to carry shitty Hellfires that is not only slow but also lose tracking even if there's a small pole in the way, I'd even say they're pretty terrible compared to Vikhyrs, Spike-ER's, PARS and Starstreaks. One thing good is the F-16C as CAS but it's definitely not the only one since France also has the F-16C and few other nations have Gripens and Russia has the Kh38's that is definitely better combo with the Pantsirs providing cover and facing much less capable SPAAs. I'd say it's a C tier nation.
I dont think frances air is all that good America has a better air superiority fighter better cas aircraft better multi role American air is just better in every way the tanks are a different story
France has a better f16, the aim120 are useless compared to mica in ground battles bc it’s close range, as30L are easily one of the best missiles in the game, and there is gbu. The only good multi role fighter in the US for ground RB is the F16 but as I said France has a lighter one with missile launch warning, and the same armement
And the best thing about French top tier? Its not USA
Lol agreed

0 armor it needs a buff in armor and spall liners
@SquareHotShot it doesn't need a buff and you can't just give tanks things they don't have irl

Semi do a usa top tier review next
Great nation horrible teams. id like to see some 10.7 and 9.7 tanks added to the US as well
@@SHEEPS_123 true true
Gaijin should give the armor the Leclerc deserve instead of giving Russian tanks thinks that they don’t have irl 😒

Do the US review, it's time to get a reality check of what America is capable or not to compete in top tier and set the debate for once.
It's definitely worse than France
Everything in American top tier is very good. The players however....

idk about top tier but france has the best 7.7 lineup and one of the best 6,7 line up 9.3 is also strong
good video
You should do Israel cause merkavas go brrrrrrrrrrrr
Do one on Israel

Man this is such a cool top tier just kinda ruined by being french
