>The tank appears to have the main hull and engine of the US' M47M Patton, a variation of the M47 Patton made in the early 1960s, and the turret of China's type 59/69 tank, first produced in 1958.

The Tiam sports a 105mm rifled main cannon

>literal THOUSANDS of Abrams deployed effectively in foreign countries
>28 Leo's used for patrols for less than a year
your source even goes as far as to say they were not used in any fighting
>" A Leopard 2A5 was located at the checkpoint, but it could not participate in the fighting"
Other "combat" uses:
>sitting in bases in Bosnia
>rented by Canada and sitting in bases in the Middle East

Literally the only action listed was one firing 4 shots at a town it was miles away from and running over an IED

wow, such a rich operational history

>>29739150
>"The Taliban have been engaged with some of the new Leopard 2 tanks in several ambushes" and that as a result the Taliban "learned some very harsh lessons" and lost the battle in question "very quickly and very violently."
>In January 2008, Danish tanks halted a flanking maneuver by Taliban forces near the Helmand River by providing gunfire in support of Danish and British infantry from elevated positions.
>Beginning on December 7, 2008, Leopard 2 tanks took part in Operation Red Dagger, firing 31 rounds in support of Coalition troops as they recaptured Nad Ali District. A press release from the British Ministry of Defence praised the tank's fire accuracy and mobility, claiming the Leopard 2 was a decisive factor in the coalition's success.

They bought them at a discount actually. Were the first to test the anti-mine/IED system.

The US plans for a war on german soil was to literally nuke everything because muh soviet tanks. I'm pretty sure most germans would have preferred to life under communism instead.

I'm sorry, who kept the slavic horde from pulling a Berlin 2.0 on a continental scale?

Ya'll fuckers should erect a statue of LeMay, if anything.

>>29736561
They have at least three. In the last battle they where in two broke down(not sure how or to what extent) So they only used one that they nicknamed beast.
>>
>>29740388
I should add they broke down on the way there
