General information

The OF-40 Mk.2A was a further upgrade of the OF-40 which included things such as a low light level television camera (LLLTV) and a stabilized gun. Many consider the OF-40 Italy's first attempt at making an main battle tank post-WW2. The OF-40 was made after experience gained from the OTO Melara Leone project, it being a modified Leopard I.

Introduced in Update 1.85 "Supersonic", the playstyle of the OF-40 Mk.2A is very similar to that of the OF-40, although now the player has access to a stabilized 105 mm cannon, something which allows them to fire on the move with more accuracy. Like the OF-40, the Mk.2A does have slightly better armour when compared to the Leopard I, but even with this upgrade it has the exact same weakspots present on the OF-40. Mobility-wise, the tank does not disappoint, it's still able to keep up with the majority of tanks at the battle rating. The OF-40 Mk.2A is armed with a 105 mm cannon which is able to fire APFSDS, HEAT, and HESH munitions. The laser rangefinder from the OF-40 is kept. It does get access to night vision devices but still does not get access to thermals. Overall, this tank can be quite effective when the player can work around its weaknesses and make the most of its strengths.
