The development of the Leopard 2 dates back to 1970, right after the MBT70/KPZ70 project between the USA and West Germany failed. The aim was to create a modern and mobile main battle tank that would replace the Leopard 1 in the long term. Over the years, the Leopard 2 has repeatedly undergone upgrade programs to increase its combat effectiveness and protection. With the Leopard 2A6, the weapon system was improved and the Rheinmetall 120 mm smoothbore gun L/55 was introduced, which represents a further development of the previous L/44. The Leopard 2 is not only used successfully in the Bundeswehr, but also in other NATO nations trusted in this battle tank.
