Fallout Re: MBT's

I need some independent, verifiable and conclusive information on when the LECLERC T9 variant became operational with the French Army. The IRIS replaced the ATHOS TI with the T9 upgrade. I have a date range of around 5 yrs to close the gap on.
A combination of me missing some data and websites updating their information now makes a clear distinction between recognition and identification ranges now. I can say now with 100% certainty that the LECLERC should be in the "50Club", I just need a better date for the T9. Below is one of the refs I now have to support and provide that data.

The math is simple 2.5km is 50 hexes.

T10/11 date info would be of some use as well, but I have a better feel for that date.
Thanks in advance for any date data!


Have a great weekend everyone!!

Regards,
Pat
