Military

The French Army is sending 13 Leclerc tanks to the Cincu military base in Romania. The equipment is scheduled to reach the military base in central Romania by rail in about a week.

The Leclerc is one of the most expensive tanks in the world, able to hit targets 4 km away while moving at 50 kmph. France will send to Cincu a total of nearly 150 combat vehicles with complete equipment and ammunition, in order to reinforce NATO’s eastern flank in the context of the war in Ukraine. The NATO battle group in Romania was created in May and is spearheaded by France.
