Sweet ride and it has better gun then the M2/3 and be fuel efficent like
the king of battle tanks. Leo2A6

While i have no doubt the Leopards are excellent tanks, i find it hard to crown it king of all battle tanks when it hasn't seen combat. Statistics and perfomrmance on the range are all well and godd. But they are not the same as actual combat. Surley the only tanks which could vi for this title are the Chally, M1 and T-72.
 
As always I'm a big fan of our ASLAV 25. It's a top vehicle and it's been proving it's value over and over again in Iraq.
