Rheinmetall Defence |Leopard 2PL Main Battle Tank & Buffalo Armoured Recovery Vehicle 3| 1080p |

In 2002 Germany donated to Poland a a total of 128 Leopard 2A4 tanks from the German Army stocks. In 2013 German MoD signed a contract with Poland to sell another 14 Leopard 2A4 tanks, plus 105 newer Leopard 2A5 tanks, and Bergepanzer 2 armored recovery vehicles from the army stocks. In 2015 the Polish MoD selected Rheinmetall of Germany as a favorite bidder to upgrade the older Leopard 2A4 tanks. An upgraded version was developed by Rheinmetall in cooperation with a number of Polish companies. It is called the Leopard 2PL. The demonstrator was first publicly revealed in 2016.
Currently Polish Army also operates eleven tank battalions. Two of them re equipped with the Leopard 2A5 tanks. Another two are equipped with Leopard 2A4 tanks, that are to be upgraded to Leopard 2PL standard. Also there are four battalions equipped with PT-91 Twardy tanks and three battalions equipped with older T-72M1 tanks. Polish Army operates a total of 233 PT-91 tanks and 120 T-72M1 tanks. Another 470 T-72M1 tanks are in storage.
The Leopard 2PL upgrade is broadly similar to the Rheinmetall Revolution MBT. It has got improved armor protection, improved gun, iomproved sights and some other systems. However despite all improvements the Polish Leopard 2PL is not as capable as the upgraded Leopard 2A7 upgraded by Krauss-Maffei Wegmann, which entered service with the German Army in 2014. The Leopard 2PL looses to Leopard 2A7 in the key areas of protection, firepower, accuracy, and onboard electronic systems.

The Bergepanzer 3 Buffel (Buffalo) armored recovery vehicle was developed by Rheinmetall. It is based on the Leopard 2 chassis and is fitted with powerful recovery system. With introduction of the Leopard 2 main battle tank in 1979 it appeared that the previous Bergepanzer 2A2, based on the Leopard 1 MBT chassis, was not powerful enough to support the new main battle tank. A development program for a new armored recovery vehicle was launched. The first prototypes of the Bergepanzer 3 were completed in 1988. Deliveries of the new ARV commenced in the early 90s.
The Buffel ARV is currently in service with Germany, Canada, Greece, the Netherlands, Singapore, Spain, Sweden and Switzerland. Components of the Buffel, like the crane, dozer blade are installed on the South Korean K1 ARV, French Leclerc DNG armored recovery vehicles.
The Bergepanzer 3 is fitted with a crane, winch and front-mounted dozer. The main mission of the Buffel is recovery of damaged, overturned and swamped main battle tanks and other tracked vehicles. It also provides maintenance service or tows them to maintenance units. Other tasks of the Buffel include general dozing and obstacle removal.
The Buffel has a large crane installed on the rotary platform, which is capable of lifting 30 000 kg. The crane can be traversed 270 degrees. It has an electronic momentum limiter, which prevents overloading. It is capable of lifting the turret of most main battle tanks. It is also used to lift powerpacks of the MBTs, or for other load-lifting works. If repairs are required to a vehicle's suspension, the crane raises the front of back of the vehicle to allow access to the damaged system. When not required the crane lays along the right side of the hull.
