Hi Guy's & Gal's, can anyone tell me what the tank in the above picture is? At first glance I was thinking it was a Leopard, but the front of the turret is throwing me off. Not being an armour modeler I'd really like someone's help, please. Thanks in advance.

It looks like a Leopard II.

Yeah, I think I've worked out that she's a Leopard 2 A4 variant. Seeing how I've got a Leopard 2 A6 variant from Tamiya I think I'll change my dio idea. Thanks for the help Olly, appreciate it.

This is how I will portray my Leopard instead, hiding amongst the trees.

Its an German Bundeswehr Leopard 2A6 from the 2nd company of 393 Tank Battalion. You can see it on the left front mudguard (right on the picture).
