Build the Leopard 2A6
The Leopard 2A6 is a German main battle tank and an upgraded member of the Leopard 2 family. Its distinctive long-barrelled 120mm main gun and modern armoured configuration make it an excellent subject for contemporary military modelling.
Impressive 1/16 Scale
At 1/16 scale, the Leopard 2A6 is considerably larger than the traditional 1/35 scale military kit. The larger format provides more room for construction detail, painting, weathering and display finishing.
Highly Detailed Construction
This Trumpeter kit contains more than 1,300 parts across 38 sprues. The upper and lower hulls use multi-slide moulding, while individual track links and additional metal and photo-etched components add further detail to the finished model.
Modern Military Modelling
Unlike WWII armour subjects, the Leopard 2A6 provides modellers with the opportunity to build a modern German main battle tank. Its contemporary design makes it an excellent addition to collections focused on NATO, Bundeswehr and modern armoured vehicles.
Perfect for Display & Dioramas
The finished Leopard 2A6 can be displayed as a standalone centrepiece or incorporated into a modern military diorama. Pair it with military figures, modern vehicles, roads, terrain and accessories to create a detailed contemporary armoured scene.
Painting & Weathering
The large 1/16 scale provides plenty of scope for advanced finishing techniques including colour modulation, washes, dry brushing, chipping, pigments and realistic weathering. Modellers can create a clean Bundeswehr display vehicle or a heavily weathered operational appearance.
