According to the military, losses in equipment really take place, but most armored vehicles continue to actively participate in hostilities. The Swedish Tank Stridsvagn 122 is an improved version of the German Leopard 2 A5. Increased mobility enables him to act effectively in the Ukrainian terrain even with additional massive armor protection, said TSN journalist Andriy Tsaplienko. "There is no best in the world but for a specific task. It's a night hunter. He has a powerful night sight.
They are programmed to see an enemy before he sees you and make the first shot before the opponent does ",-the commander of the tank battalion of the 21st OMB" German "shared. Unlike Russian tanks, for which it is necessary to warm the barrel with the first projectile, foreign tanks are ready for battle at once. Therefore, the result of the collision with the T-72 is usually determined in advance.
That is why Russian tankers avoid collisions with Swedish tanks, especially with Leopard 2 of the sixth series, which has an even more powerful and accurate gun. Stridsvagn 122 power in one and a half thousand horsepower twice as long as T-64. Quick replacement of caterpillar is a matter of a few minutes thanks to a special lining. It is important for Leopard designers that the crew survives. Tsaplienko said that in the tank everything is focused on the survival of the crew.
Everything is located in such a way as to minimize mistakes in battle. In addition, the ammunition is arranged so as to reduce the risk of detonation and tower. "There is a lot of space here to sit, and to evacuate quickly. And I can do it in a bulletproof vest, which is definitely impossible to do in Russian or, again, in Soviet tanks," Tsaplienko explained. One of the Swedish tanks was damaged during shelling. He has failed, but the crew survived.
