Since its inception in 1949, NATO has been a community of free nations brought together with a common goal, to defend the freedom of Western Europe and North America. To do this Canada, France, Netherlands, and Belgium deploy armoured and mechanised forces in West Germany. Old allies have also been called on, and an ANZAC Brigade of Australian and New Zealand troops have answered the call to fight.

The Leclerc is a departure from the common theme of NATO tanks, being fitted with an autoloader and a longer-barreled 120mm gun. The autoloader is a more advanced design than those seen in Soviet tanks allowing particular round types to be selected quickly and not impeding the gun's rate-of-fire. The 120mm smoothbore gun can fire all the standard NATO 120mm ammunition types, with its longer barrel pushing rounds out at a higher muzzle velocity and increasing its effectiveness and range.

Contains five Leclerc Tanks.
