The Leopard is a German designed and produced main battle tank that first entered service in 1965 and was used as the main battle tank for Germany, several other European countries, Australia, Canada, Brazil and Chile. It is a fairly conventional design armed with a German-built version of the British L7 105-mm gun and known for its good cross-country speed.
The design started as a collaborative project between Germany and France in the 1950s, but the partnership ended and the final design was ordered by the Bundeswehr, production starting in 1965. In total 6485 vehicles have been built, of which 4744 battle tanks and 1741 utility vehicle and anti-aircraft variants, not including eighty prototypes and preseries vehicles. Since 1990, the Leopard 1 has gradually been relegated to secondary roles in most armies.
Sort Discription of Heng Long's 3838 Tank:1:16 Scale R/C Battle Tank
is huge! It's almost 1/2 meters in length!
With full Multi-directional driving (and it's fast!),
Turret swivel and
Barrel raise and lower,
you'd think that that would be good enough. But NOT enough for our Tank!, the absolutely fantastically wonderful thing about this tank, is that
it fires bullets with the Motor Gun system reloading system (up to to 40 shells)!, with a maximum range of
25 metres, and a capacity of 40 pellets, it powers out plastic BB's at a rate of 1p/s it even has a powerful
red warning light next to the barrel that illuminates just before it fires.
