An efficient and effective "Global LEOPARD"
The LEOPARD 2 is synonymous for internationally leading battle tank technology. The armed forces of 16 nations rely on its multifaceted superiority. KMW supplies these tanks as
general contractor. With over 3,000 units delivered, KMW has achieved a globally unique commercial position. The LEOPARD 2 can be found in service from the Arctic Circle to the Alps and the Andes
to the Mediterranean, as well as the Pacific, thus justifying its nickname, the Global LEOPARD.
Successfully deployed till far into the 21st Century
The LEOPARD 2 derives its superior fighting ability from an optimal combination of firepower, protection, mobility and controllability. The L55 smoothbore cannon (120 mm) and modern ammunition
provide superior firepower. Continuous innovation keeps the system’s primary and secondary protection effective against the latest type of ammunition. The modular design of the battle tank
makes for simpler subsequent modernisation and upgrading. The LEOPARD 2 will therefore remain dominant far into the 21st century.

KMW hat den Brückenlegepanzer LEGUAN
auf Basis der Kampfpanzer LEOPAR D 1 oder

neue Fahrgestelle von Kampfpanzern aufgebaut
werden. So ist es zum Beispiel auch
auf Fahrgestellen des polnischen PT91, des
U.S.-amerikanischen M1 „Wolverine“ und dem
M47/M60 in Spanien im Einsatz. Die Brücke
lässt sich auch von Radfahrzeugen wie zum
Beispiel dem 8x8 der MAN und dem 10x10
