 The {{PAGENAME}} was introduced in [[Update "Air Superiority"]] as a new top tier MBT for Sweden, coming with improved protection against chemical rounds and shaped charged ATGMs bolstering the survivability of the vehicle. Still having the same 120 mm L/44 gun compared to the [[Leopard 2A6]] and [[Leopard 2A7V]] with their 120 mm L/55, it would seem the {{PAGENAME}} is inferior in terms of firepower and penetration, but this is not an issue for it due to it still being competitive at top tier. Even with additional armour, the {{PAGENAME}} is still highly manoeuvrable with its additional weight and doesn't affect the speed at all. The {{PAGENAME}} still has vulnerable areas on the hull against kinetic rounds and, like its predecessors, excels in a hull-down playstyle, exposing only the well armoured and protected turret to peek out and fire at enemy units. Angling the armour of the hull with the additional armour gives it better chance to survive close combat engagements than other Leopard 2s.
