Leopard 1 Main Battle Tank - Jerchel Michael
Development of the Leopard 1 can be traced back to November 1956, when the operational requirement for a new battle tank was formulated by the Federal German Armed Forces (Bundeswehr). The French later dropped out, however, and on 1 October 1963 the 'Standard' tank was officially named 'Leopard', an appropriate choice considering Germany's wartime pedigree with the formidable Tiger and Panther. Originally a Franco-German project, the tank under design was named the 'Standard-Panzer'.
This book traces the development and service record of the Leopard 1, detailing its control systems, modifications and variants.
