Nope. None operational anyway. The Bundesheer(?) used a mixture of British and US build equipment after WWII

IIRC, I don't believe there's a design lineage from the PzKpfw V to the Leo1. There's a very clear gulf in German tank design from WWII to 1960. Leo1 was an international (Franco-German) project which fell apart and produced both the AMX-30 and Leopard 1.

PzKpfw V is the same class medium class tank, with the same design philosophy.

The German Armed Forces are called Bundeswehr.

Bundesheer is the name for the Austrian Armed Forces.

I think you were right, my ZU-23 was slightly too big. But now it is okay.

It looks moderately now. Though the angled barrels don't really work marvels in pixel style.

Also I love the Uaz, those were crazy little bastards that felt like they were steam engined or something, huge noise, bumby ride but yet they took you everywhere you wanted

Back in the good ol' days, when ever we bougth some major weapon systems from Soviets (like MiGs or the tanks), they sended couple of dozens of Uazes atop of the bargain.

WOW!... Wonderful work!...

If you want a good reference for journal article, read #23 of "truck & tanks", a French magazine. There is a splendid article on the legacy of Panzerwaffe on The Bundeswehr!
