John Cockerill, one of Belgium's leading turret manufacturers , exhibits an upgraded Leopard 1A5BE main battle tank (MBT) of the former Belgian Army with a Cockerill 3105 turret at the Eurosatory 2022 exhibition in Paris.
John Cockerill saw a great opportunity where several countries still operate this classic German-made tank that first entered service in 1965.
The largest Leopard 1 operators currently are Greece (with 501 Leopard 1A5GR and 19 Leopard 1A4GR), Turkey (170 Leopard 1A1 and 227 Leopard 1A3), Brazil (with 128 Leopard 1BE and 250 Leopard 1A5) and Chile ( with 120 Leopard 1V units).
In addition to offering fire control upgrades , John Cockerill made sure that his turret could be integrated directly into the Leopard 1 tank chassis .
