History & Significance

Announced at Nuremberg Toy Fair in January 2025 as a new addition to Tamiya’s 1/16 RC tank line. The real Leopard 2 A7V is an upgraded variant of the Leopard 2A7 with additional hull-front armour and reinforced suspension, mounting a 120mm L/55 gun — the newest tank in the archive, extending Tamiya’s long-running full-option tank series to a current-generation NATO main battle tank.

Chassis Engineering

ABS plastic chassis/hull with die-cast suspension arms for durability and an aluminium gun barrel. Uses Tamiya’s DMD T-12 control unit, driving forward/reverse, turns/pivots, turret rotation, and gun elevation, with recoil and hull kickback effects synchronised to firing, plus volume-adjustable sound from the transmitter.
