Sometimes countries do dumb things to keep a domestic arms industry alive.
T-72s, no matter how much cool-guy stuff you bolt onto it, would be targets and little else in a full blown war. Leopard IIs are a far superior platform and use NATO ammunition - things that matter for the country most likely to be on the front line.
