description: The Leopard 2 is a main battle tank developed by Krauss-Maffei in the
|
|
1970s for the West German Army. The tank first entered service in 1979 and succeeded
|
|
the earlier Leopard 1 as the main battle tank of the German Army. It is armed with
|
|
a 120 mm smoothbore cannon, and is powered by a V-12 twin-turbo diesel engine. Various
|
|
versions have served in the armed forces of Germany and 12 other European countries,
|
|
as well as several non-European nations, including Canada, Chile, Indonesia, Singapore,
|
|
and Turkey. The Leopard 2 was used in Kosovo with the German Army, and has seen
|
|
action in Afghanistan with the Dutch, Danish and Canadian contributions to the International
|
|
Security Assistance Force, as well as seeing action in Syria with the Turkish Armed
|
