Field-Ready Replica of the Leopard 2 A7V

For serious RC modellers, the Tamiya Leopard 2 A7V combines careful scale fidelity with practical build quality. This 1/16 scale replica is more than a display piece; it recreates the look and mechanical cues of a well-known main battle tank while remaining approachable for hands-on hobbyists.

Reflecting German Design Details

The real Leopard 2 A7V is noted for its modern protective upgrades and mobility. Tamiya mirrors those cues in the model, from square-style headlights to extra plating details, so the visual lines of the kit match the source vehicle with precision.

Smooth Mobility and Rugged Running Gear

This scale model uses an all-wheel independent torsion bar suspension with die-cast suspension arms to handle varied surfaces. The pre-assembled tracks with rubber pads maintain traction, while the aluminium gun barrel and ABS chassis balance durability with scale appearance.

Control Suite and Immersive Effects

Powered by the DMD T-12 control unit, the model gives fine control over turret rotation, gun elevation and drive functions. The unit ties engine tones to vehicle speed and includes dedicated sound and light effects for main gun and machine gun fire to heighten realism.

The Tamiya Leopard 2 A7V is well suited to hobbyists who value scale accuracy and mechanical detail; collectors and club drivers alike will find its features both educational and engaging.

The kit captures many external details such as updated headlights and extra armour plating and reproduces the overall silhouette and fittings seen on the actual Leopard 2 A7V.
The DMD T-12 offers precise steering of tracks, turret rotation and gun elevation, plus speed-synced engine sound and separate firing sound effects for extra realism.
Assembly requires patience and some modelling skill but the kit is approachable; beginners who take their time can achieve strong results, especially with basic modelling tools and paints.
You will need a 4-channel radio, a 7.2V battery and compatible charger, plus modelling paints if you want to finish the kit in authentic colours.
