Czech Republic finalizes acquisition of Leopard 2A8 tanks [ANALIZA]

The Czech Republic in early June last year entered the acquisition of Leopard 2A8 tanks on the list of strategical purchases. The possible contract was to cover the acquisition of a maximum of 77 vehicles (including peculiar varieties), of which the basic order was to number 61 wagons. The plan was approved by the government in Prague [at the end of June](https://defence24.pl/strong-armoured/chech-buy-over-70-newst-leopardow), which allowed the negotiation process to start, mainly concerning industrial cooperation between the parties.
