The Dutch Leopard 2A4NL Opleidings- en Trainingscommando (short in-game name: Leopard 2 (OTCo)) is a modernized variant of the German Leopard 2A4, adapted to meet the needs of the Royal Netherlands Army. Featuring the excellent 120 mm Rh120 L/44 smoothbore cannon from the base model, the Leopard 2 (OTCo) can fire a HEATFS shell and excellent APFSDS shells. It also has a balanced amount of armor at the front of the turret and hull, providing decent protection. Like all Leopard 2 variants, the Leopard 2 (OTCo) is distinguished by excellent mobility and a respectable top speed of 68 km/h.
The Leopard 2 (OTCo) is coming to the game as a new premium tank for France’s ground forces tree. It features some customization differences, including a camouflage net that can be toggled on or off, and decal markings at the front and back of the hull.
That’s it for this one! This tank is coming to the game in the Leviathans major update, but pre-orders for it have started today, featuring unique pre-order bonuses, Golden Eagles, Premium Account time and of course the Leopard 2 (OTCo) itself!
Please note that this vehicle’s characteristics may be changed before it is added to the game.
“LES”, translated to English is literally just “Lesson” or “Training” should not have stickers. As you can see with this Leo pic you showed, that’s not a LES since it doesn’t show the sticker and it has the cupola.
Here are some other Dutch “LES” vehicles and all of them have their turrets removed for training purpose (iirc LES is only for driver training, hence they don’t have a turret)
The ones I provide are also from the OTCo school. They indeed did not carry the LES decal when not using the driver cabin in that case, but the decal seen on the starboard modflap of the Leopard 2 LES vehicle you showed here, unless on older ones:
Like what? Not being a Leopard 2 premium? Would be incredible.
Hopefully we get a Greek Leopard 2 for USA, a captured Leopard 2 for USSR, Canadian Leopard 2 for Britain, Indonesian Leopard 2 for China, Thai Leopard 2 for Japan.
I don’t know how Gaijin has managed to brainwash you but you can quite literally have both a unique premium vehicle and and TT vehicle at once, look at the F-14A IRIAF for example (a perfectly executed event vehicle).
You don’t need to chose between bad and good, this is just an agenda Gaijin has been pushing forward as a poor excuse to introduce C&P.
yea, it has the same decal on the right mudflap. But Gaijin still can’t call it “LES” since only the drivertraining tanks keep that decal and don’t carry their turret.
So if it doesn’t carry the “LES” badge (which is only used for drivertraining) and has a turret, then it isn’t a “LES”.
They could better call this the “Leopard 2A4NL RTS” then
Quite surprised that there’s going to be a 43 MECHBRIG decal especially /9when the tank is french and not german), when in 2016, 17th of March the 43rd MECHBRIG has become a part of the 1st Panzer Division. Die 1. Panzerdivision Bundeswehr and the 414 Tank batallion is now subordinate to the 43rd MECHBRIG
Therefore my question arises is the decal going to be universal, or limited to french usage like the Dutch airforce insignia?
Due to the close relations with germany and the netherlands 43rd Mechbrig and 414 Pantserbatallion I’d be a tad bit disappointed if it wasn’t.
