Leopard 1A5 / C2 (2 in1)

Between 1986 and 1992, the Leopard 1 received a combat upgrade that included an improved fire control system.
Vehicles converted accordingly were designated Leopard 1A5.

From 1996, the 114 Leopard C1 tanks in service were to be converted to the Leopard 1A5 standard, which was designated Leopard C2.
The turrets of surplus German Leopard 1A5s were installed in the existing hulls.
The Leopard 1A5 turrets were then mounted on the C1 hulls.
A total of 66 vehicles were converted.
 The first upgraded C2s were put into service in November 1999.
