Ukraine troops cheer on Leopard tank as it blasts Russian trenches near Robotyne

A Ukrainian Leopard tank blasted Russian trenches during a battle in the south. First-person footage revealed a fierce firefight near the town of Robotyne. The video was captured by soldiers of Ukraine’s 47th ‘Magura’ Brigade. It begins with Ukrainian troops running into a trench for cover. As bullets crackle around them and artillery shells explode in the distance. Then a Leopard tank comes into view, with its gun pointed at a nearby tree-line. Gunfire erupts, indicating there are Russian troops hidden in the trees. The tank then opens fire with its cannon, to cheers from the Ukrainians. It fires into the trees multiple times, hoping to weaken the Russian defences. The battle took place to the south of Robotyne, where Ukraine is advancing. Troops have broken Russia’s first line of defence and are attacking the second. Minefields which slowed the initial attack are less dense in this area.

leopards are the emotional support animals for ukrainian troops

[bobwoods]

The Leopard in it's natural habitat. 🤠👍

[DrumToTheBassWoop]

Doing what tanks where invented for, close infantry support.

That Leopard tank showing up quieted down the incoming gun fire. Must be a welcome sight for the Ukraine troops.

I drove a M-48 tank in vietnam highlands. 750 air cooled diesel. 30 MPH down hill, but had a very handy 90mm main gun. The only thing to hold real-estate with. 10th calvery.

Just imagine the german engineers who built that peace of Equipment if they knew it would be blasting russian defences in ukraine today. It cant get more panzerish than that 😮

A more genuine cheer than most you might find in a day.

1:28 : the surprisingly un-intimidating sound of a very near miss from a bullet

[Hogsrule]

Infantry and Armor go together like Peas and

[gutstompenrocker]

There is a Bradley about 100 yards behind the Leopard providing cover fire.

do you see how agile it is, what a machine

[cloudstrife]

That leopard is happy, doing the job he was created for; slaying orcs

Amazing work of the Leo crew. I'm sure they learned a lot in Germany, but the really advantage of high firepower while moving around the battlefield, is something you only learn with years of training or on the battlefield. It's a different tactic from Russian made tanks that are more static on the battlefield.

The gunfire are so intense, but the soldiers seem completely adapted to it ..

[ViinnySMT]

Ukraines summer counteroffensive was a complete disaster... 70k casualties and hundreds of AFV's destroyed for a merely 40 square kilometers, no objectives were succesfull...

Thanks Ukraine for standing up to Russian aggression and defending Europe, I hope you get all the weapons and support you need to successfully defeat the orcs. Slava Ukraine.
