Description
The Leopard 1 Main Battle Tank family of vehicles became the first fully-German developed series of armoured combat vehicles to be built since the end of the Second World War. Using the German-built version of the British L7 105mm gun, the Leopard focused on firepower and, with its impressive cross-country performance, it was unmatched by most other tank designs of the era.
Michael Shackleton and Mike Cecil consider the design, development, anatomy, and operational service of the Leopard 1 in Afghanistan, Bosnia and Croatia, Kosovo, and Somalia.
