      The expensive glass canons were designed for precision strike, while the cheap mass produced ones were designed for war of attrition.
      Both sides, today and in WW2, use this mixed approach. For example Nazi Germany continue producing Panzer IV and Bf-109 pretty much till the end of the war, alongside newer Panzer V/VI (Tiger and Panther) and FW-190, Me-262, etc.
      Ofc the Axis powers were unable to compete against the Allies in term of production capacity. But it doesn't mean they neglect the production of "cheap & good enough" equipment.
      Nobody criticize Stalin for wasting resources in developing and producing expensive IS-2, or questioning Roosevelt/Truman for the efficacy of the Manhattan project (within the scope of WW2).
      Manhattan project, an expensive undertaking that in the end only produced several bombs, which didn't really alter the war in any significant way (i.e. firebombing and carpet bombing would yield similar result).

    It is the West which is to blame for what happened to Leopard-2. The Western media portrayed Leopard 2 as an unstoppable juggernaut. In reality, it is just a tank which shoots quick, good and accurate but can be damaged and destroyed by the enemy powerful anti tank weapons.
    The Ukis and the West are under psychological shock not because the tank losses but the shattering of the aura of invincibility woven around Leapard 2.
    I am sure very soon this tank will be back on the front line.

    M1 Abrams: 71 short tons
    Challenger 2: 71 short tons
    Leopard 2A6: 62.3 short tons
    T-72B3M: 49.6 short tons
    T-90M: 49.5 short tons
    similar sized, Russian tanks have 580mm tracks, the Western tanks have 635mm (25 inch) tracks. approx. ~27% better weight/track size ratio.
    There is a good reason Russians knowing these conditions use such size.

    How many tanks has Russia lost in this war? Answer according to Oryx is 2082. Ukraine has lost 550 ( of those they had at the beginning of the war ) and captured 545 Russian tanks which means they have more now than they had at the beginning of the war. "The West" has, in addition , delivered 471 tanks to Ukraine ( including leopard 1s and Leopard2s ). The Ukraine now has approximately the same number of tanks in Ukraine as Russia ...Why would anyone think that Western supplied tanks would be invulnerable?...About 20% of all military equipment sent to the battlefield in the early days of the (counter) offensive by Ukraine was damaged or destroyed.... the Ukrainians have since changed their tactics and hardware losses are lower now down to 10%. 34 Bradleys are estimated to have been lost. Oryx reports 24 Ukrainian tanks ( ten of which were Leopards) were lost in June 2023. In July?????? The problem for Ukraine is they lack aerial dominance.... they really need the F16 s they've been begging for. They also need systems to destroy the very effective Russian helicopters. The UK is sending
    some systems to help with this... but, as usual , it is not enough.

    So basically what I am getting from the video, 1) Tanks need air support to defend against aircraft and helicopters. To engage ground forces that have anti-tank missiles. Or 2) use missiles that are just as or more accurate but with a much longer range. Which means out of range of enemy aircraft, anti-tank missiles, and certainly mines. The best way to deal with a defensive position is fly over it.

    The video didn't even address drones. Damn! And Russia has finally made a good strategic decision - incentivizing destroying western made equipment. Russia will probably do the same for any KIA of soldiers or equipment, because money talks. Regardless, if the soldier doing so even lives long enough to get paid.

    Could be the reason why many AFV "experts" and "pundits" have been wary of both Leo 2 and M1 Abrabams since their innception, the position of ammunition stowage in the turret makes these vehicle significantly vulnerable to in particular tandem missile and even tandem warhead RPGs strikes -although the West derided the ex Soviet style T-64, T-80, T-72, and T-90 for its propensity to "frying pan" its turret, it seems now likely that Leo2 and possibly M1A2 when (if) it finally arrives on the Ukrainian stepp, has a propensity in their own right to catestrophically explode -despite the oft aclaimed "blow off panel system" significantly blow off / blow out systems didn't work in naval weapons when trialed back in the late 1940 early 1950s with similar 115mm, (4.5 inch) 120 mm (4.7 inch) and 127 mm (5inch) weapon loadouts -so why would it be markedly different now? That M1A2 is still applauded for it's fighting prowess in Iraq GW 1 & 2 when it effectively didn't face an effective opposition with effective 1st world weapons, just a bunch of dare one say T*wel Heads with RPG 7, 16 and BM 40 is not what is being faced in Ukraine today. It will also be significant if the Challenger 2, all 14 of them, fairs any better -but as many say "Ah doubt it".

    Well, the Germans can make great products,, but sometimes do have the issue of "over-engineering", thus making maintenance, a problem. Quite often German tolerances are slow little, that it takes German tools to work on them. You'd think the Germans would have included those tools along with the tanks, but I bet they didn't, and the whole thing/situation got overlooked.

  • @miketurner3964
    @miketurner3964 Рік тому +1

    I would suggest that in every war there’s an engineer who hangs their hook on a “Game changing” wonder weapon and the Generals lock in thinking they can save men and material.
    War was, and will be, a numbers
    game.
    The Russian Cold War tanks are serving the same purpose as the Sherman and T series variants used against the German tanks in WW2. As cheap as the crews, and easily repaired or replaced.
    The most concerning point however, is the vast majority of comments on this piece echo my observations to varying degrees, which then opens up difficult questions for NATO as to their reading of history and the use of armour and the cost(s) of prosecuting a
    conventional war.
    A cheap drone with a shaped charge does exactly the same job as tank or helicopter, with the operators being able to act with an increase in their survivability and preservation of their battle experience and their tactical capabilities.
    Given all of the above, in Ukraine a fast moving open country assault was, and still is no place for armour unless of course you have air superiority and more tanks than your opponent.
    Which unfortunately, and for the present at least, tactically and historically puts Russia in the box seat because they are, for the most part defending.
    The silence from NATO and the sabre rattling from Russia now (possibly) demonstrates that it has dawned on them that like every other conflict that they have tried to support, it will most likely end up with an uncomfortable peace through negotiation, or all out war in Europe.

  • @TonyM540
    @TonyM540 Рік тому +3

    Tank technology has not kept pace with drone technology as of yet. This is a natural development of weaponry versus armour. In time, better tanks will be developed that are better able to survive aerial attack. Drones are limited to the weight they can carry and bigger drones are easier to spot and shoot down. We are witnessing a drone versus anti drone arms race. Tactical adaptability to the relatively new threat on the battlefield is key. Air superiority is not a new concept…..but still relevant and vital. Whichever side wins this arms race….wins the war.
