Living armored history: 40 years of Leopard

Sure! Just please provide the text that you would like me to translate.

Krauss-Maffei Wegmann (KMW) celebrates 40 years of Leopard 2. In the fall of 1979, the Bundeswehr introduced the first system that uniquely combines the combat value criteria of firepower, mobility, protection, and manageability. International guests from the military and industry participated in the celebration and discussed the future of the Leopard 2 in a panel discussion titled "A European Tank Fleet: First Step Towards a European Army?"That's how it all more or less started. The Leopard 2 A4 rushes through the field. This version is in service with the Austrian Armed Forces.

The latest Leopard 2 A7 version in the camouflage colors of Germany. These are currently being delivered to the German and Danish armies.Even in the desert, the steel "big cat" feels right at home. Here in Qatar, one of the 35 units in a stylish desert camo.In the north, the good old "LEO" is highly esteemed. On the left with a Swedish camouflage and in the middle with Danish colors. In the back right, the special paint job from the cover image, a kind of night camo... (not meant to be taken seriously).The Leopard 2 is quite colorful, at least when you look at the different camouflage paints.A group photo is always a must: the anniversary collection. You can click on the image for a larger view.
