[Product introduction]
TAMIYA 1/35 Leopard 2A6 tank Ukrainian army.
[German main battle tanks that have started to be provided]
The Leopard 2 was developed in West Germany in the 1970s and became the main battle tank of the German Bundeswehr. Among them, the A6 has achieved further modernization with significantly improved offensive and defensive power. The wedge-shaped increased armor on the turret and the panoramic sight for the commander equipped with a thermal imaging device are inherited from the previous model A5, and the main gun's 120mm smoothbore gun has been extended to 55 caliber. By making the gun barrel longer than 1 meter, muzzle muzzle velocity and armor penetration power have been significantly enhanced. The A6, which began deployment in 2001, has gained trust as uniquely modified types are operated in countries such as Greece and Canada. Then, in January 2023, the German government announced that it would provide its own A6s as support to the Ukrainian military in the fight against the Russian invasion.
