Russia lost 2 ARVs to Ukrainian FPV drones trying to recover a abandoned Leopard II tank

1. Primary target will now be the Leo II. Take care, they will not get it.

   Also it is already finished, the blow out panels of the turret are gone and the engine compartment was on fire.

   Also the crew compartment is already burnt out, so the Leo II is already a complete loss, but it can not be seen/identified easily due to the several layers of armor. On the left site of the turret, it can be seen (as the outer armor layers are blown away, that it is oxidized so the turret and crew compartment is done.

2. Nice bait!
   The cherry on top would be, if Ukraine could recover the Leo to their side and after some R&R put it back into the fight.

3. They need to drop a JDAM on that tank, can’t allow the Russians to get their hands on that.

4. Disable the one on the outside, so the one in the middle isn’t going anywhere while waiting for your next drone to arrive.

5. Do the Russians not realize that the L2 is bait?! 

6. It’s like watching a cat toy with a mouse.

7. Liking this. To the Russians, the Leo is such a valuable propaganda piece that they are willing to risk significant assets to recover it… Make them bleed for it! Good work, it’s only a tank. Chances are, the crew got away from the Leo, to fight another day.

8. We’re all gonna die in a third world war to a fucking amazon drone aren’t we?

9. Not gonna lie hurts a little seeing a 2a6 like that.

10. Reason why Ruzzians stick to stealing washing machines. Then again Ruzzians seem not to know to stay in their lane.

11. LOW BATTERY!!!!! LOW BATTERY!!!!!!

12. Bad Ruzzians! Stealing a Tank that don’t belong to you!
    That’s what the r/FarmersStealingTanks are here for! 😀

13. Sheesh, Leopard tanks are pretty deadly, even with no crew and a busted drive train it is still killing ORCs’

14. The pinacle of stupidity.
    Some dumb commander sent people to recover “NATO tank” to brag about it on TV, and it cost them 2 rather rare recovery vehicles.
