The short answer is that we purchased 100 Leopard 2 main battle tanks, the purpose being that because they were up-armoured, they had a greater survivability. These are state-of-the-art tanks. We received them at a much-reduced price from the Dutch. That was actually done by my predecessor, Minister O'Connor.
They have been very useful and very successful in protecting soldiers and doing what tanks do. A tank of that size and capability breaks up a party very quickly.
Twenty of them were sent into theatre after certain modifications. There are now 40 that have returned to Canada. There are an additional 20 that we swapped with the Germans. We bought 100; the German department of national defence actually gave us use of 20 tanks immediately so that we could get them in theatre quickly, and we are replacing those with 20 that we had purchased. There are 20 currently being upgraded in Europe to swap out and be sent into theatre. Some have been damaged quite badly, as you might expect; those will return to Canada for repair.
In terms of training, certain modifications are being made to the tanks that have already returned home. Some of these tanks will be used for very special purposes, such as road clearance. They are modified for a specific purpose.
All of that is to say that we will be in receipt of, and we will have, 100 Leopard 2 tanks in the fleet. They will be used for training purposes, primarily at Wainwright.
Would it be Wainwright?
