Despite leopard 2 is quite old but it is improved at every step and era. In its final stage, it is a good mixture of fire power, protection, and mobility. in the near future protection will be further one step ahead with the addition of a trophy active protection system making it the world one of the best tanks.
it entered service in 1979 as the result of Germany core engineering .leopard2 replaced leopard 1 and is armed by the 120mm smoothbore cannon. It has been updated in every aspect including firepower, mobility, protection, and fire control system. It is being used by more than 17 armies over 4 continents even after more than 4 decades. There are two main development batches of the tank: the original models up to Leopard 2A4, which have vertically faced box shape turret, and the improved batch, namely the Leopard 2A5 and newer versions, which have angled arrow-shaped turrets with appliqué armor together with other improvements.
Leopard 2 to a4 variant almost all looks similar but have some minor changes the original leopard 2 which was originally developed in 1979, had only an image intensifier, not the thermal sights. The next model leopard 2a1 has some minor improvements in addition to thermal sight for the gunner followed by 2a2 to a3 variants, both having some more adjustments and additions, like the digital radio and welded hatches for leopard 2a3. the most widespread and exported version is the leopard 2a4 and it got major improvements including an automated fire and explosion suppression system, an all-digital fire control system with the ability to handle new ammunition types, and an improved turret with flat titanium/tungsten armor. The new armor is believed to have protection equivalent to 700 mm of RHA against kinetic energy penetrators and 1000 mm RHA against shaped charged warheads. Many nations use the leopard 2a4 variant.
