Rheinmetall is a German defense company. It has a long tradition of making guns and artillery pieces, such as the WW2 88 mm gun. It is primarily involved with production of artillery, including tank guns such as the Rhinemetal LTA2 105 mm of the Argentine TAM and the 120 mm smooth-bore carried by the American M1A1 main battle tank. Its best-known current product is the 120mm smoothbore tank gun developed for the Leopard 2 tank. The company is also involved in a variety of advanced metal-working and milling technologies. This has allowed it to provide special high-quality components for small arms in addition to its heavy weapon production.
