Default Re: Leopard 2A4 and 2A5 inconsistency

I've been working on the Austrian OOB together with Siddhi for some time now... Austria bought its Leo2A4s from the Netherlands in the mid-1990s, however, I just discovered that guns and armor are different... can anyone confirm that at least the Netherlands' Leo2s are modelled correctly? Then it would be straightforward - I'd just have to copy&paste them, as they initially did not receive and modifications.

Ok... I made some more comparisons and found that the Leo2s in the Austrian OOB must have been taken from Germany, copied together with the main guns...
I haven't done any weapon stats modifying so far, so I'll be careful - maybe someone could explain: The weapon only represents the type of ammo used by a particular country, right?
So, if Dutch Leo2s use the WG79 version of the weapon until 12/95 with a Sabot penetration of 50, while Germans use only the WG87 with a Sabot penetration of 66 since 1/87, then this means that the Germans bought better ammo while the Dutch seemed to stick with the old rounds. Therefore, even though I will have to correct armor values (if this can be verified) to Dutch levels, as well as the CMG and AAMG to the FN Mag(which we still continue to use - no MG74 as currently modelled), but the main gun I'll have to use depends on what ammo Austria bought with the Leos - which should be possible for us to find out.
