The Leopard 2NG (Next Generation) is the Turkish upgrade to the ex-German Leopard 2A4 supervised by Aselsan that includes the application of more armour (AMAP), upgraded optics and a new fire control system on the work since 1995 and to be delivered by late 2011. The package will be set on all of the 298 Leopard 2 main battle tanks of the Turkish Army. According to the Turkish news sources, Finland is interested in getting the Turkish upgrade package to modernize their fleet of Leopard 2A4s.
With this upgrade solution, ASELSAN replaces all of the electronic, electro-optic, electro-mechanical and electro-hydraulic systems of the Leopard 2A4 MBTs with newly developed state of the art systems. This leads to increased performance and reduced Life Cycle Cost to incomparable levels with respect to any Main Battle Tank.
