Description
Discover the iconic Leopard 1 Main Battle Tank, a masterpiece of military engineering designed and produced in West Germany. Entering service in 1965, this tank was a response to the era's evolving warfare, emphasizing firepower and mobility over heavy armor. The Leopard 1 boasts the formidable German-built version of the British L7 105-mm gun, ensuring superior firepower. Its unmatched cross-country performance set a new standard for tank mobility, making it a standout design of its time.
The development of the Leopard 1 was initially a collaborative effort in the 1950s between West Germany, France, and later Italy. However, the partnership dissolved, leading to the Bundeswehr finalizing the design and commencing full-scale production in 1965. Over its production run, a total of 6,485 Leopard tanks were manufactured, including 4,744 battle tanks and 1,741 utility and anti-aircraft variants, alongside 80 prototypes and pre-series vehicles.
