-Report to German High Command-

The proposal to develop new camouflage types for the Leopard 4 series have been initially incorporated with the Leopard 4A4, currently with several new color schemes.


 * 1) This is the standard model design, with an increase of armor in the turret to 500mm, and at an extra angle, with the turret moved back to compensate for the length of the front. The 140mm railgun is slightly lengthened as well, and to compensate for the extra weight, the tank itself has been made wider, with wider tracks, and side armor being increased to 270mm, and a coaxial MG5 is placed.




 * 1) With the first design is for Desert Warfare, similar to the Leopard 3 series, it has air conditioning units, and this time a larger, water tank with a cooling system to provide the crew with water during travel across the desert, and a small fan is placed behind the shield of the detachable MG5. There is also a built in filtration system to prevent debris should the holder be punctured. The scheme is a solid tan color.




 * 1) The second design is for asymmetrical warfare in urban combat, using three different colors, and a large bulldozer blade that can be raised and lowered to clear debris in the road, and also act as a set of spaced armor to the hull.




 * 1) A final model is for Arctic, and Winter warfare. With several regions being close to the arctic circle, the color scheme has been made to allow the tank to blend into the snow covered regions, and heating systems have been installed inside the tank, though despite several requests from multiple tank crews, a "Hot chocolate machine" will not be installed due to the lack of space within the tank.



These standard designs will most likely be used by future tank variants to allow a better survivability rate on the battlefield, and due to the request that the model be sent into service, the new APS system will be post phoned to about the Leopard 4A6.
