Hi,

Just got into modern stuff after years of WWII modelling.

Present project is the Leo 2 A6. Can you recommend any ood references for this vehicle and modern German tanker uniforms?

There are some really good photos of Leopard 2A5s and 2A6s on Panzer Modelle:

http://www.panzer-modell.de/referenz/in_detail/leo2a6/leo2a6.htm

The only external difference between the 2A5 and the 2A6 is the
gun barrel (and muzzle reference mirror thingy).

Cheers - Dan
