Photos taken in the front area appeared on the network, showing the Ukrainian Challenger 2 tank.
Up to this point, no one had seen Challengers in combat. The appearance of such modernized equipment may mean that the armed forces of Ukraine have provided additional protection to such tanks, after unmanned kamikaze aircraft easily disabled Leopard 2 tanks, foreign agencies write.
Profile charge grids are known to serve to reduce the threat of cumulative charges such as anti-tank grenades or rockets.
At the same time, experts point to the fact that the first days of the counteroffensive of the Armed Forces of Ukraine did not teach them anything.
“Drones are only one factor in the loss of Western tanks. A large part of the tanks were destroyed precisely by mines. And, judging by the photo, minesweepers were never mounted on British tanks. It is very likely that in the coming days we will see the first tanks of this type blown up by mines,” notes the analyst.
According to reports, these tanks are already operating in the area of the Rabotino settlement.
