Michael Shackleton has sent further news about another batch of new releases from Leopard Workshop.

We have received news that Leopard Workshop have released another batch of improvements for the current crop of Leopard kits. These are:

LW017HB - Leopard 2A4 Barrel For HobbyBoss Leopard 2A4M CAN
Designed to be a straight fit onto the HobbyBoss Canadian Leopard 2A4M CAN kit. Three alternative fume extractors are provided with different textures. The fine texture extractor has been modified to be more accurate and is now included in all of the Leopard 2 guns..

LW021 - US-style AS-1729 Aerials on MX-6707 Base Unit
ANY NATO vehicle using US radios mounted these aerials from the mid-1960s through to the 1990s and on.
As far as Leopards (1 and 2) are concerned, these aerials were used by Australia, Canada, Chile, Greece, Holland and Turkey.

LW022 - Danish Leopard 1 Aerials
Designed to fit the Meng Leopard 1A3/1A4
This antenna was used with the DA/VRC-271 radio and the antenna was called Broadband Antenna - Short. This was fitted as part of the 1A5DK update, replacing the previous German SEM25/35 aerials on the 1A3DK.

LW031 - Danish Leopard 2A5DK Diehl 570PO Tracks and Sprockets
This release can be used with the Accurate Armour Danish Leopard 2A5DK conversion or the HobbyBoss kit.
All Danish Leopard 2A5DKs were delivered with the same track as other nations Leo 2s. Over a long period of time, the entire fleet has now been equipped with this new Diehl 570PO track. The supplied sprocket is designed to replace the Tamiya item.

LW033 - Leopard 1 Improvement Set
The Revell kit is a nice model, but it can be built into a special model with a little help. We hope this set will help you on the way. Of course, other Leopard Workshop sets can be used to further improve the kit. The kit’s awful vinyl tow cables with the moulded-on brackets, in particular, were the inspiration for this set.

LW034 - German Comrod Aerials
This is the latest aerial equipment for Bundeswehr vehicles. It is standard equipment on Leopard 2A7 and Boxer, and is being introduced on Leopard 2A6 and many other Bundeswehr vehicles. The VHF30108VM or VHF3088VM is a VHF antenna, more commonly known as Comrod after the Norwegian manufacturers of the masts.

LW035 - Canadian Leopard 2 'Velcro' patches (For HobbyBoss Leopard 2A4M CAN)
Are you looking for something a little more convincing than the flat decals provided in the kit? These self-adhesive patches are individually cut to a more accurate size, are very easy to place, and look more 3-dimensional.
