Does Canada use the MG-3 Machine gun on the leopard?

The deal is done once and for all, as for the 2A6 damage oversees by IEDs, they're being sent back to KMW in Germany for repairs and use in Canada for training purpose only, depending which damage extend they suffered.

For the plows and rollers, when we rented those tanks at first, we've been told by the manufacturer that the 2A6 was not design to handle this, but if you look at some pictures of the 2A6 PSO, you’ll see a blade mounted in front. The CDN has conducted some trials on the C-2 tanks with an extended mine plow to clear A6 tracks and that's what they're looking at right now.

The fact is that the amount of money allowed to buy those tanks including modifications is insufficient, so they had to make it with, including keeping the C-2 in service oversees witch by the way are still doing a great job.
