During the 1960s, global powers started using second-generation MBTs. But as soon as the first M60s, Leopards and T-62s rolled off the factory floor, engineers of the world started working on improved tanks for the next decade. The first prototypes were ready by the early 1970s. It was around the same time when the name of the design was determined as Leopard 2.
