EuroTrophy has been awarded a major contract by KNDS Deutschland for the delivery of a total of 123 Trophy Active Protection Systems for the German Army’s latest Leopard 2 A8 MBT fleet.


Alongside the APS systems, the contract also includes an initial spare parts packages and services to successfully integrate it in the technical, operational, and logistic chain of the German Army.


This marks the second major award for EuroTrophy within the last 12 months, after the Norwegian Army’s selection for Trophy as its APS for the Leopard 2 A8.

“We are honored and grateful for this award, as it clearly demonstrates the high confidence our customer KNDS has in our combat proven Active Protection System. With this step, Trophy has become an integral part of the Leopard 2 A8 standard configuration,” said Dan Kalfus, Managing Director of EuroTrophy.


“This contract award marks a major milestone and achievement in our joint effort to supply world class technology to our European customers. We are convinced that Trophy will be the first choice for many other NATO and European users, which want to equip their MBT and IFV fleets with an Europe-made active protection system,” added Dr. Thomas Kauffmann, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of EuroTrophy.
