2A5 or later. Anyone know the specific model or who is fielding it?
Military-Today list this tank as Leopard 2A4 with a modular upgrade package. Here’s the link if you want. www.military-today.com/tanks/revolution.htm
Ah, the armor upgrade threw me. That and I didn’t think that the 2A4’s had as angled turret fronts. I stand corrected.
All in all, a pretty good tank.
Would drive again.
Much more practical than an Abrams in most situations, but sturdy enough to hold up in a fight, but when they were Soviet deterrents and now in Afghanistan. Also a solid mid sized tank with a 120mm smoothbore and enough ammo to play for keeps.
Factory test model, perhaps? It has a curious lack of insignia, or much in the way of the markings of any sort that an ‘active service’ vehicle collects.
