Leopard 1


This tank was intended to replace the M 47; American tanks in the Bundeswehr's arsenal. The first proposals for the design of a new tank, which was to successfully fight with the T 54, were formulated in 1956. In 1957, they were ďale further refined, and in the same year the development program began with the help of France. In 1958, Italy also joined the programme. The first prototypes were built in 1961. The winning design was the result of a duel between two German teams led by Porsche (Vienna) and Ruhrstahl. France dropped out of the program due to government budget problems. The first production machines left the production line in 1965. In the same year, the tank was introduced into the German army. The tank was introduced to the army in the same year.
