Canadian Leopard
The Leopard main battle tank was developed by Germany in the 1960s. Canada purchased 127 Leopard tanks in 1979, the bulk of which were stationed in West Germany until Canada withdrew from Europe. The tank has a fully stabilized 105mm gun capable of firing while the vehicle is moving. The Leopard also has a 7.62mm C-6 MG mounted co-axially, a C-6 on the turret roof for anti-aircraft defence, and smoke dischargers. The tank has a crew of four (crew commander, loader, gunner, driver) and is capable of submerged fording, with preparation.
