In May 2017 it was decided to give the Bundeswehr Leopard 2 tank an upgrade in the form of the Leopard 2 A7V; building upon the A7 variant, the A7V has additional hull front armour to increase its survivability, with new running gear to compensate for the extra weight. Its L/55 120mm gun is a carryover from the A6. 104 existing tanks are to be upgraded to A7V spec, and units began receiving them in September 2021.
