The Leopard 2A4 is a German main battle tank developed by Krauss-Maffei in the 1980s. It features a 120mm smoothbore gun, advanced composite armor, and a digital fire control system. Known for its mobility, protection, and firepower, the Leopard 2A4 has been widely exported and serves in the armed forces of several countries. This variant improved upon earlier models with enhanced automation and reliability.

So I've been away for quite some time, preparing for college really takes away a lot of time. I've originally planned for this build to have a auto targeting MG like my crusader tank but the performance cost is already so high because of the 7 road wheels (Each road wheel build costs around 100) so I decided to dump the idea. But I might post one with a mg42 that's not auto targeting. Anyways I'll try to build more in my free time, I hope you enjoy my build!!

Note: Instead of the usual thing at the front of the hull I decided to make it into ERA bricks instead (I know it's not accurate but I need to save performance costs for people who can't play on good devices like me)
