Leopard 2, Germany

[Righteous_Fire]

heres a bit of folk-lore
in the late 80s the americans were so desperate to sell the abrams tank to PA, that they offered to re-build all the small and medium bridges (over irrigation canals) one sees in pakistan's punjab province.

I've heard this in connection with Zia's death! Dr. Shahid on his program invited some Armor core guy who said the same thing! They had even brought models of M1A to Zia and that model........... not a very nice thing that one was ...

Turkiye has more than 300 Second-hand Leo-2A4 (Turkey is going to modernizate all of them with new generation "Volkan" fire control system)... Volkan-1 has been developed to modernizate Turkish Leo-1 Tanks by Aselsan...

All of those tank modernization programs will be performing as a stop-gap solution until Turkish Altay MBT's will be ready until 2014-15...

Here is some of them...

Cabatli bro .......

Bro,

All Turkish Leopard-1 and 2's are obsolete 2nd hand Tanks. We have ordered them from Germany and modernizating them in accordance with requirements of Turkish army necessity (Volkan-I & II systems) and certificated them with Turkich code names like Leo-1T. Leo-1's had been ordered a long times ago but Current 300 Leo 2A4's have been ordered as a stop-gap solution Until Our 1000 Altay MBT will pass to mass production phase.

All above pictures and video I have indroduced above is about modernization programs and systems (Volkan I&II) of Aselsan.
