are you sure it wasn´t the 2A1 which was introduced 83 ? I´m asking because the fourth batch build by MAK and Krauss-Maffei between Dec 85 - March 78 were the first 2A4s (370 vehicles). All vehicles build before 85 were 2A1s and 2A3s and were later retrofitted to 2A4 standards.

At least for that I can trust the little info I have.
The main batch of Dutch Leo2 (445, of which 278 from Krauss-Maffei and 167 from MaK) has been delivered between 1982 and 1986.
They were termed Leopard 1 NL, am I right? I am not sure of any mention of a 2Ax version.
Anyway, they were Leopard 2A1 with some minor differences, like domestic AAMG (Mag58), smokepots, radio and pilot's vision blocks.
I have no info about when or how they were brought to A4 standard.
Anyway the first batch of German A4 in 1985 had only better FC with digital calculator, only later came better armor (batch 6, 1988-1989)
