This Leopard is a 1A1A1 (1-V); it is displayed with a mannequin in the commander’s cupola.
The marking “12E” indicates A-eskadron (squadron), 2e peloton (platoon), and E (platoon sergeant’s) tank respectively. Originally Dutch Leopards were Leopard 1A1 Baulos (batch) 4; 1-V (verbeterd, improved) was a version with extra armour and some specific Dutch modifications. This example came from Zwijndrecht and is in excellent condition. (Source: L. Delsing).
