Ehh maybe. They are in no-mans land and probably damaged. They would be neat trophies and good propaganda but from a tech perspective largely useless. We're not really giving Ukraine much that if captured would be a huge risk of tech duplication. Leopards are 40 year old tanks, Bradley's the same and nothing particularly special.
What this last week did is put a serious dent in the "Ukraine will win because of superior NATO tech" narrative. Reality is modern weapons are really good, and their counters, (mines, artillery, helicopter overwatch) are more than sufficient to take down previous generation hand me downs.
Pretty funny, that as soon as we see destroyed Leopards, Baerbock takes issue with calling these tanks German.
We see Russians inspecting the vehicles which most likely means they've towed some vehicles out for trophy value.
By the way huge disaster confirmed --> Leopard / Bradley / MRAP losses.
Poor Ukrainian tactics bordering on stupidity, directly assaulting strong defensive lines created by the Russians well in advance including minefields, anti tank obstacles, trench systems etc --> Ukraine's 47th brigade (elite unit trained by NATO) mauled by Russian artillery, Kornets and AT missiles fired by KA 52 Alligators.
This was the attack on Robotyne,
was quick to shit on the sources as per usual. Western MSM still don't say a word that means it didn't happen right,
?
