Elias-Welt

In NEWS by RalphZwilling / Februar 2, 2025 / 0 Comments

Tank-Masters.de not only produces high-quality photographs and publications of military vehicles, but has also set itself the goal of giving something back to people in our society who are not as well off as we are.

This week we had the opportunity to hand over a donation to little Elias in Scherneck near Coburg. Elias suffered an oxygen deficiency at birth and has been struggling with severe, irreversible life-long deficits ever since. We are using the donation to help train an assistance dog for him.

You can find Elias‘ story on his Facebook https://www.facebook.com/Elias.Welt.Verein/?locale=de_DE and on the website www.elias-welt.com

We would be delighted if you would follow our example and support little Elias in his daily struggle. Every little donation helps!

Gestern durften wir dem Roll-Out des ersten neuen Kampfpanzers Leopard 2A7A1 mit dem abstandsaktiven Schutzsystem Trophy auf dem Werksgelände von KNDS in München beiwohnen.

Der Kampfpanzer Leopard 2A7A1 wird ein Kapitel unserer neuen Bildbandserie „Fahrzeuge der Bundeswehr seit 2005“, in dem wir dieses Fahrzeug im Detail besprechen werden. Im Rahmen der Bildbandserie werden wir in den kommenden Jahren nach und nach die Fahrzeuge beschreiben, die im Jahr 2005 bei der Bundeswehr im Einsatz waren und seitdem beschafft wurden.

Weitere Details zu dieser Bildbandserie werden wir Anfang kommenden Jahres bekanntgeben.

Yesterday we had the pleasure of attending the roll-out of the first new Leopard 2A7A1 main battle tank with the Trophy active protection system at the KNDS factory site in Munich.

The Leopard 2A7A1 main battle tank will be a chapter in our new book series “Vehicles of the Bundeswehr since 2005”, in which we will present this vehicle in detail. Over the coming years, we will gradually describe the vehicles that were in service with the Bundeswehr in 2005 and have been procured since then.

We will announce further details on this book series at the beginning of next year.
