To my German friends, on behalf of all Canadians we would like to thank you for the best tank in the world the Leo 2a6m that we were using in Afghanistan as the video shows. Awesome piece of kit, when the enemy see's or hear them coming the run like a friggng chicken.
Hey wilflundy. Respect from a fellow CF veteran. Run like a chicken. I love it! We in the CF have a lot to thank Deutchland for. But the Leopard is chiefest among them. I got to serve in Lahr and Geilenkirchen. It was my honour.
Welcome to the annual international tank competition in Russia - Russian Tank Biathlon. In 2019, 39 countries took part. The rules allow the use of its equipment and machinery (China acts on its tanks). 10 days of exciting tank crew competitions in military skill. In 2019, Russian women's crews demonstrated their skills as follows. All videos are publicly available. We are waiting for your wonderful technique, which will give viewers and fans new enthusiastic emotions.
Oh that is so true, Canada uses the Leo's as well and they are an awesome piece of kit. We first purchased the leopard 1's in the late '70's, then later the leopard 2's and now we use the new leopard 2A6M's that were also battle proven and used in places like Afghanistan. Canada also learned many of the tactics that you speak about from Germany and to go with it we have the best tanks in the world thanks to Germany. Cheers!
A LEOPARD 2 a világ leggyönyörűbb,legméltóságteljesebb,legmegbízhatóbb,legerősebb harckocsija.Mindig is elbűvölt.Egyszerűen félelmetesen fantasztikus!!!!!!!!!!
Hey come on! We have a joint tank batallion training together in Germany and we are building the Boxer together. We should improve on that ! Fighting and training together develops strong bonds, which is a good thing to have with our Dutch neighbours. Said by the German/Dutch hybrid!
Isn't there a dutch/german combined armor brigade now? EDIT: Yes there is. The 414th Armor Bataillon. upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/0f/PzBtl_414.jpg

777fuzzypeach But more importantly, does the Merkava 4 also have a sprinkler system of sorts to wash the blood spatters off? You don't want caked Palestinian blood to render its systems inoperative, do you?
The best tank at the moment (and the most expensive) is the Leopardo 2E, but the only new generation tanks that proves their combat eficiency was the M1 Abrams and the Merkava IV
the Leopardo 2E is the most advanced tank over the world, and is the spanish version of the Leopard 2A6. The Leopard 2 and the Challenger never fight vs other tanks, not like the Abrams.
Now we have the Leopard 2SG operating in the tropical jungles in Singapore. Something really different from the European temperate, or desert conditions the Leopard is used too. A new milestone.
Great Video! The mixture of this fascinating, epic song combined with the strength and symbolic untouchably of a modern MBT gives me the power and courage to make things which are difficult to deal with.
Hey PV. Wait til you get to live there! German food, german wine...it does not get any better. Ask any CDN Forces soldier who got to serve in Deutchland. And yeah, if you want it built right, have a German build it.
@Mister Privacy because turkey use an old leopard 2 (2a4) in street battles. the leo 2a4 dont have a protection to anti tank missiles. first the leo 2a6. (sry for my bad english)
siemensohm That's the point. The Leopard "is based" on the Tiger and Panther - even the name (designation). Also from 1943 is the ME-262 - great plane. Germany today (with better access to raw materials and know-how) gets 70 years later (almost to the day) not even a drone out.
Thomas M. Goldstein based on the Tiger and Panther? I think not! Read a book about the Leopard-MBT and u understand more as now. Bildung tut wohl manchen Leuten echt weh. *facepalm*
Ser. Hudson Aber natürlich, der Leopard 2 ist in seiner Gesamtentwicklung vom Himmel gefallen. Du hast Recht und ich meine Ruhe vor derartigen Bildungsgranaten.
I'm British and a Challenger 2 lover but my god the Leopard 2 is quite simply EPIC. I think it edges all the other MBT's out there including the challenger!
I'd like to point out that on paper the Abrams, and the Leo 2 are very evenly matched. They have similar armor, the same horse power, and the same gun. They both spawned from the MBT 70 program which was a joint US/German effort to produce a common main battle tank. The program didn't meet expectations, but the US, and Germany went on to make very similar tanks. They're both superb. I personally like the Leo 2 more though.
Oh man when I watch this video I want to be a tank commander although I hate war. This tank is world's best. I come from austria and I can tell you that it is not the best country for to live if you are into weapons. In austria many people hate guns and espacially the austrian army. Nice greetings from austria, greets chris.
Less than hour ago, i were walking outside... i did hear powerfull diesel train sound on nearby tracks. In blink of an eye my muscles were jammed for second or so in my mind i saw my self in pothole in the darkness hearing lp2 crawling in the woods! gives my chills still after 6 years when i left army. When will this end? i were panzer jaeger and not afraid of tanks... but i will not forget that simulated war camp. Huh! i can still feel that ground shaking in my bones!!!
Looks like the German manufacturer and the French developing company of the Leclerc are fusing and will develop a Leopard 3. Can't wait to see what that will bring.
prolamer7 and switch the gearbox so that itll have 2 forward gears and 7 reverse. What I find painfull is that they put the headquarters of the company in the netherlands. Whats wrong with that? Well we sold most of our tanks because of budget cuts and people who think tanks have no use anymore. We do keep 1 in a museum and about 15 in a joint program with Germany. But its not enough. We used to have 1000 tanks during the cold war and 440 or so leopard 2's for some time :(
Barbarossa Errare dont know if the French tank was good or bad. Never dealt with it. I do have some experience with the Leopard and, with the latest updates, it's a fantasic machine. Something I would very much trust in combat. Can't say the same for quite a few other machines.
The sloped armour of a tank isn't meant to deflect shells anymore. Modern anti-tank rounds are either APFSDS or shaped charges. APFSDS are deformed and destroyed when hitting sloped armour and shaped charges do detonate on sloped armour but due to the angle, the LOS thickness is stronger than that of a normal armour. Plus, these sloped armourplates are also spaced to increase protection against shaped charges.
@ScansRevelator Iwas in contact for many years with a swedish tenk technican who was trained in Germany. He was part of the swedish tank trails were they put the Leo2 vs M1 and Leclerc ...he was so nice to gave me some officel swedish defence force publications about the test results of the tank trails. There they published numbers like consuption during the whole test trails, reliablity ranking, shooting scoores etc. Leo2 and M1 are perfromance twins with little + and -
@01SnowRider At 2:30 is a Canadian tank - the Dansk dident use the kind of sun umbrellas. Canada has diffent versions of the Leo - some where upgrade some are in the upgrading process at the time of the video. Today all where upgraded, exept the mine protection, because Canada pulls their tanks out. BTW, also no tanks was lost only lightly damaged by IED´s.
Die stählerne Faust des Deutschen Heeres! Wieder mal ein geiles Video! Kannst du vielleicht mal was über den Puma oder die Panzergrenadiertruppe machen? MfG
@bumschak12 The Danish also used Leo 2 in Afganistan. But they use A5 and the ones in the video were A6 so can only be Canadian. To bad few tanks are used there. They are a lot more precise then air support (less collateral damage), directly available and can give protection to the troops. Onl ythe most heavey IEDs do damage + you can add mine rollers/plow. When you have tracks you don't have to use roads but can go off-road so less chance of hitting IEDs.
Good point Rick2010100 having the ability to select the required level of armor protection is an excellent capability...as is the ability to upgrade and replace an older armor package with a new more effective one.
To my German friends, on behalf of all Canadians we would like to thank you for the best tank in the world the Leo 2a6m that we were using in Afghanistan as the video shows. Awesome piece of kit, when the enemy see's or hear them coming the run like a friggng chicken.

I am a Russian person, but I can say that the leopard is beautiful, the Germans always knew how to do the technique, guys keep it up
now you can enjoy them on the battle field...
Honest question. How are you feeling now?
@@LegoMaul hope he is still feeling something
Most people in Russia live a quiet life in the cold, if you wanna blame anyone, blame tv propaganda.
great video! last year I was a commander on a leopard 2 i Helmand Afghanistan... she saved my life a couple of times :-)
Oh that is so true, Canada uses the Leo's as well and they are an awesome piece of kit.

in Chile haben wir den Leopard 2A4 und A5. Einfach fabelhaft!
You guys need to upgrade! 2A4 is 90's tech and protection!
Just slap some good 2A6 or 2A7V tech on the old 2A4 chassis.
Německá tanková škola opět v plné síle!!!!Jen tak dál!Leopard 2-Best tank:)
A LEOPARD 2 a világ leggyönyörűbb,legméltóságteljesebb,legmegbízhatóbb,legerősebb harckocsija.Mindig is elbűvölt.Egyszerűen félelmetesen fantasztikus!!!!!!!!!!
The German technology and perfection of producing this kind of machines makes me sometimes jealous as a Dutchy^^
Please don't even start...
By the way do you know how you can sale your own government, cause we don't need them.
+xXxradius90xXx Maybe the taliban wants them
Hey come on! We have a joint tank batallion training together in Germany and we are building the Boxer together.

i think it's the best tank at this moment
Merkeva 4 with Trophy APS, combat proven now in Gaza. Any MBT without an APS is nothing more than a target.
777fuzzypeach But more importantly, does the Merkava 4 also have a sprinkler system of sorts to wash the blood spatters off? You don't want caked Palestinian blood to render its systems inoperative, do you?

TheDuckKiller everyLoL Mate you forgot 2 tanks, Leo2 and Challenger.....
the Leopardo 2E is the most advanced tank over the world, and is the spanish version of the Leopard 2A6. The Leopard 2 and the Challenger never fight vs other tanks, not like the Abrams.
Our Leopard 2E (spanish version) are a engineering marvel, thanks Germany for this incredible design!
Awesome Video! Leopard 2 4ever!!!
ich liebe den Leopard 2 Panzer, ist mein Baby im Dienst. Leopard 2 I LOVE YOU FOR EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!
Easily the most epic video on youtube
god bless you german! your tank are awesome
from a canadian;)
Eins der besten Leo Videos die ich bislang gesehen habe ! Respekt !!
Mehr davon
Mfg
Now we have the Leopard 2SG operating in the tropical jungles in Singapore. Something really different from the European temperate, or desert conditions the Leopard is used too.
A new milestone.
3:08 So epic!
I may be proud of our Leclerc but I must admit the Leopard 2 is truly a sexy beast.
Slava Ukraini! Danke Deutschland!
Best Video i have ever seen.
Tank you!!!!!
"62 tonnes of German steel" THAT'S HOW I LIKE IT!!
Great Video! The mixture of this fascinating, epic song combined with the strength and symbolic untouchably of a modern MBT gives me the power and courage to make things which are difficult to deal with.
The "made in Germany" seal is harder than every frenchtank :D
Beeindruckendes video hast du das gemacht Pegasus, passt alles richtig schön zusammen, respekt von Videomacher zu Videomacher.
LA CLASSE !!!!!
THE BEST !!!!
German cars.
German weapons.
German design.
German knowhow.
German engineer.
Are amazing.
Hey PV. Wait til you get to live there!
German food, german wine...it does not get any better.
Ask any CDN Forces soldier who got to serve in Deutchland.
And yeah, if you want it built right, have a German build it.
Stormtrooper at the end! xD
BEST TANK VIDEO EVER!
Drop a like if you think the leopard is the best tank in the world.
@Mister Privacy because turkey use an old leopard 2 (2a4) in street battles. the leo 2a4 dont have a protection to anti tank missiles. first the leo 2a6. (sry for my bad english)
Love the look of the Leo in its winter camo.
German Technology, The Best!!!
Yes, but that there is such a drone project... we do not talk about this *lol*
Thomas M. Goldstein lol, but the drone was bought in the US ^^
siemensohm
That's the point. The Leopard "is based" on the Tiger and Panther - even the name (designation). Also from 1943 is the ME-262 - great plane. Germany today (with better access to raw materials and know-how) gets 70 years later (almost to the day) not even a drone out.

Thanks for the update!
Best leopard 2 videotrailer what i see
Its a great tank i can tell yeah
what is the name of the song at 2:22 ?
great video
Last year I was a gunner on a leopard 2 in the norwegian army, holy shit what an awsome year!
I'd like to point out that on paper the Abrams, and the Leo 2 are very evenly matched. They have similar armor, the same horse power, and the same gun.

Geniales Video! Göttliches Großgerät^^
Titans of justice is an understatement ...
The song in the beginning is code of honor by two steps from hell
schön das du das so siehst^^
I'm also German and it's everytime amazing to see such highend technologie ...
sau geiles video + musik top!!!
GOAT tank...
no other MBT can equal this monster on battlefield. A tank without a single flaw
das ist wirklich mal ein verdammt super video...respekt..
und wie schnittig der leo doch ist....... :-)
Oh man when I watch this video I want to be a tank commander although I hate war. This tank is world's best.
I come from austria and I can tell you that it is not the best country for to live if you are into weapons. In austria many people hate guns and espacially the austrian army.
Nice greetings from austria, greets chris.
Lima, Ohio I am familiar with that town, I came down from Toronto to do some work at the Ford Engine Plant there.

such a beautiful tank.
das video is spitze. Vorallen die letzten sek. mit den sturmtruppen helm-typ is genial^^
thank u, it was epic :D
Simply the BEST from GERMANY !!!
The Canadians were the first country to use the Leopard 2 in operation and we loved it.
Looks like the German manufacturer and the French developing company of the Leclerc are fusing and will develop a Leopard 3. Can't wait to see what that will bring.
+Lennart If French will be working on it there will be White flag weapon for sure .-DDD

+Lennart It is another deal of the french to extract german know how, because otherwise they would always lack behind in engineering.
+Lennart a big mistake from the Germans. What a pitty. Our Leopard and French, o my dear.The French leclerc was a shit tank.

@bestgoalie95 The Battlefield 2 expansion pack Euro Forces even contains the Leopard 2 :)
i love the music.
@MefCRO Rommel would be proud, the modern German Tiger !!!!
And this is why Canadians use these beast with a passion. Canadians love German armor.
I like the fact that we took these German master pieces and made them even better with improved armor Leopard 2 hell version
Die stählerne Faust des Deutschen Heeres!
Wieder mal ein geiles Video!
Kannst du vielleicht mal was über den Puma oder die Panzergrenadiertruppe machen?
MfG
I will not argue with that. I don't want them to show how good their tanks are AGAIN
....After 70 years this german guys still make some of the best weapon systems in the world.....
Beautiful. I have such war modell sticked with glue and painted, it is from modell collectors series, scale 1:35 . So beatiful and peace making unit.
Verdammt, sind das geile Aufnahmen! Wo zum Teufel hast Du die nur aufgetrieben?! Besonders EPIC isses bei 1:55.
THE best , coming soon in Brasil 🇧🇷

@Ironfawks the name of the song is Code Of Honor from Two Steps To Hell :) epiccc drums!
the LEOpards are just badass, while im a big fan of our Abrams too, i think we're due for a next gen mbt
Most of these videos are Canadian! Represent!
