Leopard 2A4 in Finnish Army Arrow 24 exercise. Leopard main battle tanks are intended for destroying enemy armoured vehicles and providing armoured jaegers with direct fire support.
Leopard 2A4
The Leopard 2A4 is a German-made main battle tank designed and manufactured by the Company Krauss-Maffei Wegmann, the successor of the main battle tank Leopard 1. The version Leopard 2A4 constitutes the basis of today’s Leopard-family. The Leopard 2 is in service with Austria, Canada, Chile, Denmark, Finland, Germany, Greece, the Netherlands…
Leopard 2A6
The Finnish Army originally bought 124 2A4s from surplus German stocks in 2003. Of these, 12 were converted into bridge-laying and combat engineering tanks and 12 were disassembled for use as spares, leaving 100 operational tanks. In 2009, the Finnish Army bought 15 more German surplus Leopard 2A4s for spare parts of existing fleet, bringing the total number of Finnish Leopard 2A4 tanks to 139. On 16 January 2014, Finland agreed with the Netherlands to purchase 100 used Leopard 2A6NL tanks for approximately €200 million. In 2015, most of the Leopard 2A4s were moved into reserve, with some converted into Marksman AA vehicles and mine clearing tanks.
The Leopard 2 is a main battle tank developed by Krauss-Maffei in the 1970s for the West German Army. The tank first entered service in 1979 and succeeded the earlier Leopard 1 as the main battle tank of the German Army. It is armed with a 120 mm smoothbore cannon, and is powered by a V-12 twin-turbo diesel engine.

![Sirius Compact L20C Communications Sensor For C-ESM and EW operations [4K UHD]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/GmL4BWNFrKc/mqdefault.jpg "Sirius Compact L20C Communications Sensor For C-ESM and EW operations [4K UHD]
[4K UHD] To create a NATO Recognized Electromagnetic Picture (REMP), today’s warfighters depend on rugged, highly mobile, hard to detect and interoperable Electronic Support Measures (ESM) sensors to survive and win in a peer or near-peer conflict.
Saab’s Sirius Compact L20C passive Communications- ESM (C-ESM) sensor. Due to its low-SWaP design, Sirius Compact L20C offers rapid deployment across all Electromagnetic Warfare (EW) operations; bringing passive sensing to disputed borders or even to the front-line.
As a member of the Sirius Compact family of passive ESM sensors, L20C reflects the need for agility and will integrate smoothly with almost any vehicle (including Unmanned Ground Vehicles – UGVs) or static mast. It can be operated both while on the move and remotely. L20C can be quickly mounted and dismounted without tools.
A crew of two can comfortably carry the sensor and its accessories into the most non-permissive environments.

Sirius Compact C-ESM kit
A Sirius Compact C-ESM kit consists of a lightweight Compact Digital Antenna, a ruggedized Processing Box that will easily fit into a daypack, and a roughbook or ruggedized tablet. Power supply can be sustained using NATO standard batteries (e.g. BB-2590) or any other energy source available when supply lines are disrupted. Sirius Compact C-ESM can be mounted on an optional tripod or any other static or mobile mast system.
Sirius Compact C-ESM will detect, locate, classify and track communication signals.
Establish a NATO REMP
Conduct tactical EW Reconnaissance (RECCE) missions
Build an enemy force Electronic Order of Battle (EOB) picture using a Threat
Library or Knowledge Database (KDB)
Support Ground Based Air Defense (GBAD) and Counter Unmanned Aircraft Systems (C-UAS) missions
Support Force Protection (FP) and protection of Critical National Infrastructure (CNI) tasks
Build mobile or semi-mobile sensor networks for border protection, enhancing strategic Communications Intelligence (COMINT) assets
Setup unmanned mobile sensor networks and conduct UGV-borne RECCE missions, thus reducing exposure of troops to hostile fire
