Post subject: Leopard 2A7

Here a youtube film about a KMW Leopard 2A7.

The strange thing is it has a Netherlands army registration number KU-84-87. (sn 22162). It is not an old A4 modified to A7. It was noted as A6 before.

I did hear nothing about updating a NLD Leopard to A7 standard? Anyone?

If it is a KMW company demonstration model, at least remove the former r/n.

Regards,
Lesley

I have seen an Iveco VTML at an stand of the Belgium army during Wings & Wheels at Ursel And I would get claustrofobic inside that vehicle Also I'm wondering how the road performance will be after putting some Fiat 500 tires at an Iveco VTML Michel _________________ I'm Not Crazy, I'm Just Not You
