It had to happen. Neither side have been able to put together a combined operation. We’re looking at WWI tactics with huge losses.

It’s now spare parts for the rest. It happens in war.

Just saw a video on the challenger 2.

Actually a specialized tank killer, very impressive. Rifled bore for extreme accuracy and range. It can’t even shoot HE, pretty much just a tank sniper.

I would say the Russ best bet would be to hunt it with spotter drones followed by arty or lancet hits.

Tanks are essentially obsolete targets for drones and missiles................

At just $5 Million before shipping and handling... divided by 69 tons that comes to just $36 a pound. That is barely more expensive than See’s candy. What a bargain! These arms dealers need to up the price again.

Don’t worry. The Dung Beetle Pah-tay will buy him a new one.

And just like all the other NATO hardware - like German leopards, American bradlys, French Caesars, US HIMARS, British Storm Shadows, javalins, etc. a Challenger tank will soon be captured intact (or sold black market by corrupt Ukrainians) and put on display in Moscow, after their engineers tear it apart and learn what makes it tick and how to defeat it. Next up, Abrams tanks.

Sad

Slav vs. Slav.

What a waste.

Meanwhile...they keep coming, day after day

I remember the day Zelensky first got them.

Aide: Tanks, sir.
Zelensky: You’re welcome.

[struggle]

It’s a Russian Challenger 2 now

[mac_truck]

The Ukies probably lost two more when they ‘fell off the truck’ on the way to the front lines.

[minnesota_bound]

I thought russian shells bounced off the piles of money attached to the Challengers 2 tank hulls?
