  1. love the survivability.

    give these good lads a MEXAS/PSO armor package against ATGM’s!

  2. German Panzers in a Ukrainian forest we’re going back to 1942.

  4. Everytime I see our Leos in UA it’s just unreal. German tanks fighting Russians (this time for the good guys)…Would not have gambled a penny on that five years ago. Now this beasts and their brave crews fight for all Europe. Godspeed my friends.

  5. I dont get why we germans not just send the same amount of Leo2s that we send in 2023 again in 2024. It was “only” 16 or 24 Leo 2A6 we send in 2023. There should be another 24 working ones able to be send. If we get the damaged ones back from Ukraine and repair/upgrade them, the german army would not even be left with a amount to low for our needs.

    Edit: For better readability

  7. Poland has been dealing with this situation for the last 20 years. Apparently Bumar factory is able to unofficially make a lot of small parts for their Leo 2 A4s

  8. This is exactly why Leopard is one of the best tanks in the world. Not only the firepower but also the armor, crew design and layout that allows the crew to survive and fight another die unlike the orcs who are promoted to cosmonauts.

  9. Unlike the Soviet tanks, the German Leopards are not equipped with an innovative turret ejection system.

  10. It did its job. If they had somehow managed to snag a russian tank and used it instead, then they likely would be dead right now.

  11. It took a 120mm shell to the *rear* of the tank, and just kept going (well, limping, but still).

    No injuries.

    That’s just phenomenal.

  13. It took a direkt hit into the rear and was still able to bring it‘s crew to safety. You cannot ask for more from the engineering standpoint. I hope someone important is aware of the problems with repairs and is able to change this asap. But here I am a little bit pessimistic, a lot of parties and bureaucracy is involved and KMW is unfortunately not known for their speediness in any of their projects.

  14. good to know that despite of every issue the german military has, we can still produce great tanks
