Product Description

1/72 Leopard with Dutch military markings


[About the actual vehicle]
The Leopard tank was developed by Germany after World War II.
In 1979, the Leopard 2 appeared as a third-generation and 3.5-generation main battle tank.
As improvements were made over time, the Leopard 2A4 was produced from 1985 to 1987.
It was equipped with a 44-caliber 120mm smoothbore gun as its main armament, and its turret featured composite armor, resulting in a distinctive design composed of flat surfaces.
It is equipped with a V12 turbocharged diesel engine. It boasts high maneuverability with a top speed of 72 km/h.
It was deployed and operated by the German Army, and was also exported to various countries around the world, including Denmark, Poland, and Finland.

[About the model]
This is a 1/72 scale plastic model assembly kit that recreates the German Leopard 2, a tank highly regarded for its capabilities among modern tanks.
The model is based on the Leopard 2A4 type, which was produced from 1985 to 1987.
The kit consists of 144 parts, with a finished length of 134mm (including the gun barrel) and a width of 52mm. It's a convenient size, typical of 1/72 scale.
The Leopard 2A4's distinctive linear hull and robust turret design convey a powerful presence even in its palm-sized 1/72 scale model.
