Now the land troops, landing troops or the Navy have to decide how to use them. The experience of Marines with French BBM AMX-10RC can help form tactics. They write in the publication. Despite the differences between machines, they have two common features: Leopard 1A5 will be less vulnerable to debris that has a significant impact on the AMX-10RC, because instead of wheels it has a goose. They are less vulnerable to such effects of hostile attacks.
Therefore, Leopard 1A5 should be used what they learned to do with French cars. Expand far from the front edge so that they avoid the most powerful blows of the enemy, as well as to beat the occupier 105 mm guns from a couple of kilometers. The authors also give an example of the Denmark Army. In 1994, during the UN Operation in Bosnia, the Serbian T-55 was concerned with the fire of the UN peacekeeping forces.
Then the Danish Leopard erupted to the T-55 at night because they had better optics, which allowed to destroy three machines and ammunition. The command ordered to leave the surgery to dawn because they knew how vulnerable to the tanks armor. Heavy machines could continue to complete the task, but in 1994 it became clear that it was not a tank, but a mobile gun - a heavy fire without strong protection.
