The Turks already proved that standard Leopard 2s, like almost all NATO tanks that don’t have APS, are badly vulnerable to Russian Konkurs or Kornet heavy ATGM missiles.

And all tanks are vulnerable to this war’s major tank killer - artillery.

1970’s designed vehicle will fare well in the UKF, little doubt. The RF hasn’t designed anything to counter Leopard 2’s, yesiree. More unloading of obsolete inventory to be washed away with copious amounts of blood. Let’s goooo!

The Turkish Leopards, IIRC, were hit in the flanks, due to a tactical error.
That would be fatal for all tanks normally.
