Portuguese Army Leopard 2A6

I came across a video shared by the Facebook page Brigada Mecanizada, portuguese for Mechanized Brigade, where the Portuguese Army shows their Leopard 2A6. Currently Portugal has 37 tanks, all bought in 2008 from the Netherlands Army, currently the Portuguese Army is studying the possibility of buying another 18 units. These were acquired to start replacing 96 M60A3 that are still in use by Portugal.

Unfortunately there isn’t any subtitles available, but they explain each crew member job and skill set, how they use the tank, characteristics and what is the maximum capabilities of the tank.

Enjoy.
