A line of Leopard 1 main battle tanks from 12. Panzer-Regiment in 1965.

The Kampfpanzer Leopard 1 is a main battle tank designed and produced in Germany that first entered service in March 1964. Developed in an era when HEAT warheads were thought to make conventional heavy armour of limited value, the Leopard focused on firepower in the form of the German-built version of the British L7 105-mm gun, and improved cross-country performance that was unmatched by other designs of the era.

It has since been replaced by the Leopard 2 main battle tank.
