Trackpad Publishing’s Model Foto Focus series presents its walkaround book on the last Leopard 1 introduced into the Bundeswehr.
The Leopard 1 is a main battle tank designed and produced in West Germany that first entered service in 1965. It became a standard of European forces, and eventually served as the main battle tank in over a dozen countries worldwide. Over the years variants have been introduced, and by the 1980s, further improvements resulted into the 1A5 -- having a completely modern fire control system, fully effective night/bad-weather vision system among other modifications. It is said, that in most ways, the 1A5 may be considered the standard Leopard 1 today.
