Several European countries are working with the MGBS on a completely new battle tank. However, it will take at least another decade before it rolls off the assembly line in large numbers. To bridge the gap, a high-tech model of the Leopard 2 was presented. Krone+ shows what it can do.
The new Leopard 2 A-RC 3.0 is being built by the German-French weapons consortium KNDS, which emerged from the German Leopard 2 manufacturer KMW and the French Leclerc designer Nexter. The German-French company, which is also behind the planned MGBS – the replacement for the Leopard 2 is expected from 2035 – will show the new version at the Eurosatory arms fair in Paris and thus compete with Rheinmetall, among others. The new Leopard 2 can be equipped with an even larger caliber than Rheinmetall’s “Panther” and also does many other things differently than previous Leopard tanks.
