Huh, so the vaunted leopards are already getting destroyed? I remember seeing an infographic about dealing with them (here, on grad), and it looked non-trivial. I remember being concerned.
Also, have the Brits sent challengers or am I misremembering?
Who would’ve thought Western armor is just armor too and gets wrecked by artillery shells and ATGMs all the same? Turns out Westoids are just human too

Pretty sure they sent 14 of them. At the rate they’re burning equipment we can probably expect to see some of their wrecks fairly soon too.
I’m waiting for challengers in particular, because they have been wanked as “most protective tank in the world”, allegedly able to survive multiple RPG strikes to the side.
didn’t some of them at least get blown up along with those Storm Shadow (damn these western LARP names for gear) cruise missiles? They were the source of the depleted uranium that got scattered from that I thought.
The brits sent them, but I remember them saying they’ll never actually fight in the frontlines. Something about being ‘too complicated’ or ‘too expensive’. Basically the challengers are purely for flex, they’ll be decimated in the frontlines, and the Brits know it.

West-worshippers in my country are going through 5 stages of grief right now.
Even my libs friend is annoyed by them. Like…it’s a fucking tank. It obviously can get wrecked.
