One Ukraine Leopard tank wins battle against two Russian tanks and forces enemy to retreat

A Ukrainian Leopard tank won a battle with two Russian tanks in the south. Drone footage captured the rare shooting match near Robotyne, in June. It shows a German-made Leopard firing its main gun at the Russian tanks. Despite shooting almost 3km, the Leopard manages to score one direct hit. The Russian tank is damaged but not destroyed, and retreats from battle. A second Russian tank follows it off the battlefield, fearing another hit. Though Russia and Ukraine both have large tank armies, direct clashes are rare. The vehicles are so valuable to both sides that they rarely engage one-another. Instead they are mostly used to support infantry attacks and as artillery. Seeing a Western-supplied tank take on the Russians is ever more extraordinary.

better optics and more precise main weapon

The music made this feel like it was happening in 2006

German tanks are the best tanks in the world 🇩🇪🇩🇪

Once a Leopard is aiming at you, there is a >95% chance you'll die

Too bad they had a Dm11 He shell loaded. In case of a dm53 or dm63 apfsds, both those tanks would have ended up as total write offs.

German technology. Whatever they make it is of high quality

[howardlewis]

Tut tut, the Ukraine tank Commander used HE instead of APFSDS-T (anti tank). Else that would have been a very dead tank.

If that leopard had a sabo or heat round loaded when it hit that Russian tank instead of a high explosive round that russian tank woulda certainly been kia

[laraloper]

Two? A German guy once said "one of ours is worth ten's of yours".

[bardownsky_bros]

Its not about the tank. Its about the crew

[fins]

Fancy all that happening at a rock concert.

[astacx]

the t72 just said "3km? hell nah"

[Sombody]

"The vehicles are SO VALUABLE to both sides..."
* *[looks at Russia throwing countless waves of mobilized suicide convoys to certain doom]* *
Yeah, about that...

[avegromek]

Turret didn't fly away and left the solar system? You sure those are russian tanks?

[KirilPavlovic]

Why you are hypocrites, there is video of Russian t-72 against 5 ukro armoured vehicles and tanks and he wins, why you did not post it

[SrbijaRusijaOrthodox]

Who can confirm that the video is authentic, of course the BBC 😂

[hyperspecter]

After ww2 first time german and russian weapons colide with each other💀

[ViktorKilo]

😂😂 of course? Like against mines?😂😂😂 hafensänger

[ladislavtomasevic]

There were lots of similar situations in WWII, we all know how it finished

[thomaslier]

So einfach wie die Leopard 2 von den Russen auszuschalten sind taugen die zu garnichts...
