This book from the "In the Field" series looks at the Danish Leopard 2A5DK as it appeared in the desert sands of Helmand Province, Afghanistan, from 2007 until 2014. This book complements the two existing "Trackpad" books detailing the Danish Leopard 2 - "Danish Leopards in Helmand - from the Crews Perspective", and "Danish Leopard 2A5DK and QRF". We follow "Leopard" 2 and its support vehicles arriving in theatre, in training and operations in the desert, supporting and being supported by British and U.S. forces, plus an extensive look at the beast as equipped for the desert and its mission.
The reader follows the "Leopard" 2 main battle tanks and their support vehicles into the theatre of operations in Afghanistan, sees them during training and operations in the Afghan desert, where they were supported by British and American troops or provided support for them themselves. The booklet also offers a comprehensive look at all the details of the equipment used by the Danish "Leopard" 2 in Afghanistan.
