Yeah, i found it too
EMBT européenne main battle tank
Léopard 2 chassis and a Leclerc turret
6 tonnes lighter than a classic Léopard 2 = more on board weaponary and a 1 man less in crew

That was when, then. ..this is a new common product (apparently the Italiens are intrested in buying. .some)
Shouldnt come as a suprise btw
Joint ventures / consortiums, reduce the cost of production,,, if a nation went solo?

Or is this a practical way of recycling end of service tanks ?
