The new book from Trackpad Publishing deals with Danish Leopards 1A5DK1 – and includes colour full-view and walkaround captioned photos of a Leopard 1 that spent many years on peace-keeping duties with IFOR, KFOR and SFOR.
Towards the end of the 1980s, the Danish Army had to realise that an upgrade of the Leopards 1A3DK could no longer be postponed and a programme to upgrade to 1A5DK standard was started.
In the lifetime of the 1A5DK version, the army had an increasing number of international assignments, largely peace-keeping missions, in the Balkans.
The book has been written by Kenneth Ostergaard with many of his own photographs of a preserved vehicle ,and is compiled into an attractive album.
It includes colour full-view In-the Field and a large number of walkaround captioned photographs. With 100 pages, it has 350 photos, some of which are full page size.
