Thats the Norwegian Leopard 2A8NO
Thats the Leopard 2A7A1, which had its roll-out last year.
This is the actual 2A8 (Pre-Series) for the Bundeswehr;

A nice tldr
APU allows the vehicle to run without the engine, the leopard does not have this ability.
Thx for helping with the confusion.
in addition to @I_MiikaL_I post above;
and according to online sources (and iirc some other), the 2A7A1 and 2A8 now have a 20kW APU.

Could be added after the next few updates with something like the Strv 123 and the Abrams SEP v3 with trophy; and the upgraded ZTZ99 for china with their hard kill APS. When the Type 10 gets its modernization it could be added too, hopefully with fixed armor, it would get a defensive 30mm and an APS. Italy can have the C2 Ariete. France won’t get anything until the MGCS is fully in service.

Thx i couldnt find anything on this. I only saw prototype images and never full production.
Are newer Leo2A8s capable of firing ammunition with variable fuse? Like time fuse or proximity fuse? Would be nice to the thing be capable of taking down hellis.
Still doesnt exist
France has the XLR, leclerc evolutiom and the embt series as possible additions
I mean the 2a7V already has time fuze DM11.
I think PSO as well?
Dont quite remember.
If you mean automatic programmimg trough irst lock thats another matter
I meant rather this
Thats 2 very different things xD.
2a8 did get new sights etc. But csnt tell if thw specific one is implememted
Eh, it is just that my wording was wrong.
Had it IRST, it would be more efficient with time fuse that you need to update yourself otherwise
But this was a Prototype Expo Camo, never used by the german army
They are scheduled to deliver next year, which will be after the new few major updates. ‘A few’ is 3 btw so it will be around the Christmas update for next year I don’t count the spring and summer updates because they usually hold any real value to other updates, as in nothing ‘majorly game changing was added’
U are forgetting that actually modelling the tank needs time as well dont you?
They wont start modelling it on a possibility it will look similar to the 2a8s.
Since stuff always could change.
You need to stay a tad bit more realstic
If it delivers in 2026, it’s estimated around early summer where I read from, which leaves plenty of time to change a few numbers and modify the gun model on the 122A…
You sound really negative about this, do you have a hate for Sweden or something? The entire point on my comment was just to state the 2A8 won’t be added until there are counterparts in every tree.
It depends if gajin wants to add strv123a or strv123b.
Strv123a we still werent sure if the gun is the only change or if they get upgraded with throphy as well and so on.
Gajin most likely wants to add the Strv123B over the A.
Amd dont expecr getting both soonish after another. Its likely one or the other
No, i just am against adding non existing tanks thats it
And there is plenty of nations that can add new tanks.
USA has sepv3. And the new one in develipment
Or the abrams X.
France has multiple tanks i already named.
China u named yourself.
Russia has tanks left
UK has gone good bit further with their chally 3.
The simple fact is we dont need to wait for sweden.
Sweden still has the best overall mbt line up in the game. They by far are not a priority in thw first place
Currently the A is just getting electronics computers and the longer gun.
