Char Futur 4 - Level IX - French medium tank - World of Tanks

The Char Futur 4 is a French tier 9 medium tank.

In 1977, in France, several designs were considered as part of the development of a new tank, including the Projet 4. No metal prototype was produced. However, its further development led to creation of the French main battle tank Leclerc.

The Char Futur 4 can be obtained using expedition tokens earned from Frontline and Steel Hunter 2020.

Performance :

The Char Futur 4 is a very confusing tank from the start. As a (relatively) small French autoloading vehicle, it has four shells in its magazine. Each one deals a full 390 damage, but at the cost of a four-second wait between shells. The reload for the full clip is very long as well. In addition to that, it has a larger frame than most similar tanks, and it also seriously lacks gun handling and turning capabilities. These traits are enough to make most players rethink their approach entirely. And rethink it you must.

The first advantage the Char gains over its French companions is in sniping. At longer ranges, your improved accuracy combined with fast-traveling shells and good alpha damage will shine, and the autoloading will also allow you to hit with two or three shots when others only have time for one. The more reserved positions also give you time to sit back and reload in safety. If you prefer to take a much more aggressive position in the Bat-Chatillon style, you can sometimes do so. Remember, you have more HP and a more trollish French armor profile that can stand up to some HE shells, but it still requires a great deal of careful play to stay alive on the front lines.

The Char might be better known as the sniper version of the Bat.-Châtillon 25 t AP. With a Turbocharger, it has roughly the same top speed and acceleration stats. And while it is often better to stay back and play the role of a sniper with a slow-unloading but powerful clip, the Char Futur 4 can always come in to take out the weaker (or weakened) enemy tanks when it comes to it.

This one can be fun to play. Just keep its oddities in mind and enjoy the ride!
