Produced since 1979 and in service with the German armed forces, the Leopard 2 battle tank is the successor to the Leopard 1. It is manufactured in different variants and stages of development at Krauss-Maffei-Wegmann, the latest variant being the Leopard 2A7. The Leopard 2A1 on which the Schuco model is based was built between 1982 and 1984 (750 were made), weighed 60 tons and, driven by a 1,500 PS 12-cylinder diesel engine, reached a top speed of about 70 km/h .

Schuco is going to produce a miniature model of this Leopard 2A1 to a scale of 1:87. Military models come with a metal body and chassis. As is expected of Schuco models, a number of key features have been reproduced exactly with the greatest attention to detail.

Warning! Not suitable for children under 14 years.
