Hi Juan
I served in a Tank Brigade equipped with Leopard 2.
The guns of the tanks are 105mm caliber as you can see from the shells the crewmen are handling with (my first assignememt was a regiment with tanks with 105mm guns). The Leo 2's 120mm ammunition is much bulkier as these shells in the movie are as You can see on the picture below.
The tanks shown in the movie are some Canadian Leopard 1 versions.
However, I got an idea now what I possibly can do with my old Leo 1 kits.
Kindly Yours
