Leopard 2SG Main Battle Tank

Leopard 2SG Combat Prowess
Despite the Leopard 2SG’s massive weight, it can travel at a maximum of 72km/h on road and up to 60km/h in cross-country terrain. Terrain is secondary as the Leopard 2SG is able to safely cover a large amount of distance with the shortest time possible, making it one of the fastest among its class.

The Stabilised Control System operated 120mm, L44 smoothbore gun has a fire control system that improves the accuracy of the tank. Even while at its maximum speed, the Leopard 2SG is able to maintain an accuracy rate and firepower as though it was standing still.
