Team : Schwalbenheim Republic # Leopard 2A4 140MM Role : Main Battle Tank ## Addons | Addon | Cost | | ------------------ | ------------ | | Pz 87-140 Comp add | 1,000 points | ## [General information](/md/rv/vehicles/leopard-2a4-140mm.md#general-information) Description : The **Leopard 2A4 140MM** is a Main Battle Tank based on the [Leopard 2A4](/md/rv/vehicles/leopard-2a4.md) chassis but armed with a **140mm RUAG L/47** cannon and an autoloader, reducing the crew to three (driver, gunner, commander). The 140 mm calibre was trialled in the 1990s as a potential next-generation tank gun; in-game it represents a hypothetical heavy-gun Leopard. The vehicle weighs 57 tonnes and is tracked. The **MTU MB 873 Ka-501** (1,500 hp) gives 26.3 hp/t and 72 km/h. The 140 mm gun fires APFSDS, HEAT-MP, and VT rounds with a 7 s reload from a 15-round bustle. Fire control includes laser rangefinder, FCS with lead, and Gen 1 green thermals at 12x. A coaxial **7.62mm MG3** and smoke grenades round out the fit; the turret is stabilised. This Vehicle features two addons: **2A4N Conversion** and **Pz 87-140 Comp add**. The 2A4N costs 250 points and provides a light utility buff by adding extra smoke grenade launchers and an armored MG3 mount for the commander. The Pz 87-140 Comp add costs 1,000 points and focuses on heavy turret protection; it integrates additional composite armor modules that provide an extra 250 mm of KE and 400 mm of CE protection. The 2A4N Conversion and Pz 87-140 Comp addons cannot be used together.
