The Leopard 2 was developed in the '70s to satisfy the
specific need of the West German Army to have a new modern and efficient Main
Battle Tank able to replace the Leopard 1. It was armed with a 120 mm gun and,
thanks to its V-12 twin-turbo diesel engine, it was able to reach the maximum
speed of 68 Km/h. It entered service in 1979 but, continuously improved in
technology, armament and armor, it is still today considered one of the best
Main Battle Tanks in the World. The Leopard 2 A6, in detail, is a definite
improvement compared to the first versions. Armed with a 120mm Rheinmetall L /
55 smoothbore gun, it is equipped with a modern third generation composite
protections. The turret shape and the mantle profile are developed to minimize
the impact of enemy hits and anti-tank weapons.
