    Doubt it's a recent MBT - they are a tad expensive and the military get touchy about them going AWOL

    Chieftan ?

    well http://www.tanksforsale.co.uk/ sell T-72s but the turret on that looks a bit too bulky to be one of those

    T-72

    From what I remember from my Airfix modeling days it looks like a Cheiftain :)

    Could be a German leopard their oldish (1970-1980s jobby) but look pritty much the same as the M1A1 (yanks and Germans had a co-op going for a while which breed the m1a1 and leopard) and Challenger

    Could be the Chieftain as well as far as i know challenger is noting but a upgraded chieftan so they would look similar
