Leopard 2 TROPHY order.

Mine from February 2021 ...
Ref 1/Para 4
"KMW told Janes on 23 February that it would install the systems on Leopard 2A6M3 tanks through to 2023. A KMW image of the tank after the upgrade (Will be.) designated it as the Leopard 2A7A1."

(Later in the morning added ref. What happens when you're tired? )


Mine from March 2021 ...
Ref 2/Para 1
"The 23 Trophy systems and 586 interceptors that Rafael has agreed to sell to Germany will cost $48 million."

Last Para. Just read it. this is in its "infancy" at this point.

This is an item to be TRACKED with no further action required at this time. You (and Andy both.) have enough "headaches" at this time, with no need to make a migraine headache.

Didn't know I had a medical degree did you!?! Well I did sleep at a Marriott (Not a Holiday Inn Express guy!) a couple of weeks ago.

Bottomline that's the last I heard about TROPHY for LEOPARDS.

Regards,
Pat
