About the Leopard 2A5 – Main Battle Tank
Considered the best tank in the world during the 1990s, the Leopard 2A5 was a significant improvement upon the previous Leopard 2A4. It pioneered replaceable wedged armour modules at the front and sides of the turret, attachment of improved light side skirts, and the integration of a thermal imaging system in the commander’s PERI R17A2 panoramic sight.
