Ukraine is WINNING the Tank War AGAIN

For the first time since the Gulf War, Western and Russian tanks are finally facing off in Ukraine, with Western tanks proving to have a decisive edge. In this video, we’ll dive deep into why tanks like the Leopard and Abrams are outlasting their Russian rivals like the T-72 and T-90. What makes Western tanks so unstoppable in modern warfare? Stick around as we break it down and explore the key factors tipping the balance in Ukraine’s favor.

1:27 - And Ukraine is about to receive almost 50 more Abrams from Australia. They’re older, but similar to what Ukraine’s working with now.

When it comes to the Olympic Turret Toss Championships....the T-72 seem to be winning the competitions, both for maximum height...and for maximum distance from the remains of the tank.

If we’re talking tank on tank, Western tanks will win. I saw it during Desert Storm. If we’re talking about modern warfare in Ukraine, both tanks suffer, due to drones. Though crew survival in Western tanks is exceptional compared to Russian tanks.

1:17 18 of 91 leopard tanks would be a19.7% loss and 4 Abrams tanks destroyed out of 25 would be a 16% loss not the 45% and 36% loss rate you state.

Australia has recently announced it is sending 49 end-of-duty M1A1 Abrams to Ukraine. Still serviceable, only driven on Sundays. It is expected they will be used mainly for parts.

Slight issue with this kind of comparison video... The war in Ukraine hasn't seen very many tank on tank battles at all. Apart from that T80 that got spanked by a couple of Bradleys.
They've not been using the western tanks to directly take on the Russian Armour. Challengers for example have been mainly used to snipe at artillery units or other targets of opportunity.
There's too many minefields, numerous layers of defensive lines and artillery threats for the tanks to really shine. Plus the Ukrainians havent really been able to use combined arms warfare because of the lack of air superiority.
It's all very well making a video showing direct comparisons of tanks and who would win. But in this war, tank on tank warfare just isn't happening.

Russia has been losing a dozen tanks per day on average for the entire war so even if the number is slightly lower now, they are still losing over 300 tanks per month..so being able to refurbish 100 older tanks per month, means they are still losing them three times as fast as they can replace are running out of old tanks to to mention secondary sanctions are cutting off chines parts and lowering the number of tanks russia can refurbish per month....probably much less than 100 per month now....

As a former "intelligence " officer, it was a forgone conclusion Russian armor would not compete nor compare to western armor.

Australia sending 50 Abrams to Ukraine...adding to their stockpile of QUALITY pootin must be pulling his hair out now that he is sending T-54 and

[ycplum]

It is debatable which tanks are winning, but I can tell you which tank crews are winning, more specifically, which tank crews are surviving.

[darthtac]

A autoloader can't operate the radio, take over for another crewmember so they can get some rest, cannot provide another set of hands for running repairs and most important a autoloader can't brew the coffee and make lunch.

[davidcole]

It wouldn't surprise me if Russia started pulling the T-34's out of the museums and sending them to Ukraine.

[cabbievonbump]

Considering that Iraq had many Soviet-era tanks in their arsenal during Desert Storn shot to pieces, why didn't Russia take those wrecked tanks and learned from them? I know that in spite of the low losses in tanks and AFVs that the US loss, we still took those looses and tried to figure out ways to improve the survivability of the Abrams and Bradleys.

[Gonefishing]

You forgot to mention the ultra secret special explosive armor on T- 90 Hey where are my egg cartons?!!!?😳

[petervincent]

focused on the Abrams, what about the Challenger 2? Longer kill range and better armor than the Abrams and only one loss.

[frozendefender]

Tanks effective range is not dictated by the maximum elevation of the gun. Effective range tells how far it's useful and atleast somewhat accurate, Abrams 120mm cannon has theoretical maximum range of over 20km, but hitting anything that far is near impossible.

Effective range is determined by properties of the gun, ammo, firecontrol systems and optics, maximum/minimum elevation has nothing to do with it. minimum elevation does come in to play when finding hull down firing positions.

[BrouDog]

Damn you’re pumping videos out like there’s no tomorrow, or a disturbance in global peace 😂

[rolyantrauts]

The use of tanks in Ukraine has changed drasatically where the IFV has preference and the Leo1 due to its 40 ton and 60 rounds of 105mm than some of the later gen 3 tanks.
The Abrams, Leo2, Challenger2 have problems with ground pressure and available terrain causing them to be used in predictable choke points.
With newer man portable missile systems, missiles in general and the massive effect drones are having, tanks on both sides are not fairing well.

Your content seems to be at odds with all the stats and tactics the Ukraine seem to be using... Millitary experts?

[StephenElwess]

Besides MORE tanks (c'mon, they can do better than 31 Abhrams) I'm wondering why the west isn't giving small lethal attack/multimission helos to the Ukraine army. Something like couple of squadrons of MH-6 with night vision optics that can do night attacks, that can carry and deploy and control high end combat drones right up to the front, and which can help out friendly positions with rocket attacks.

3:10 Raising gun by 60° and lowering by 20° are some insane gun acrobatics 😂 Actually it's +20°/-10°
