The Raketenjagdpanzer Jaguar 2 was a German tank destroyer equipped with anti-tank guided missiles. From 1983 to 1985, 162 Jaguar 2s were built for the Bundeswehr using obsolete Kanonenjagdpanzers by replacing the 90mm gun with a manually reloaded launcher for TOW 1 missiles and more armour. As of 1989 the TOW missiles were replaced with TOW 2s.
