Netherlands to aquire 46 Leopard 2A8 MBTs IRL.
lol BeNeLux sub tree in future.
Unless Gaijin considers KNDS prototypes, the French tree’d become similar to Italian tree, in that the sub tree end of line vehicle is more advance than the main tree one.
Some sources for those interested:
That could be possible, but will depend on what the french will buy for their ground forces. There are plenty MBT projects possible for France yeah.
At least I’m looking forward to the EBRC jaguar.
Would be interesting if France gets the next top tier leopard.
I can’t imagine many french players will be happy about that, when they won’t even get their most modern Leclerc variant.

Yeah buts its not about what they want, its what gaijin can flip and reuse asset wise. If more nations can get it then its even more likely to happen.
Yeah, all ‘major’ EBRC jaguar users are already in the french tech tree, really not that attractive for gaijin compared to a BIG export vehicle like the leopard.
It could go the route of the boxer and patria and be a event vehicle then left as only that for a few years before another nation gets a version of said vehicle.
is it just gonna be a loan by germany , like with the current leopard 2a6MA3 , or is it to legitimately buy them this time
They are going to buy them legitimately and they will go in the Dutch Regiment Huzaren Prinses Catherina-Amalia (part of 43rd Mechanized Brigade).
The new Fully Dutch crewed Leopard 2A8’s will be an additional battalion next to the Dutch-german Leopard 2A6MA3’s (that, as far as planned, will continue to be operated and leased like they are now). This Fully Dutch battalion will have to be ready in 5 years, so it’s going fast.
hu… neat
T-72 with strange turret armor.
Not armor, just roof up building make of camouflage
I thought it was going to be 52? Or are those remaining 6 to be training tanks?

just so you know, you can edit the text in the first details tag, in the quotation marks, to have the title of the spoiler box something else.
