Operators of FPV drones of the Russian Armed Forces knocked out at least three Leopard tanks of the Ukrainian Armed Forces within three days

Number tanks Leopard of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, shot down by FPV-drones RF Armed Forces, reached at least three over the past three days. Drone operators track tanks both in open areas and when they try to shoot from forest plantations, the trees of which have almost completely lost their leaves by the end of October.

Tanks delivered from Germany, as the practice of the Russian Armed Forces have shown, burn when they hit different parts of the armored vehicle. Often we are talking about damage to the engine compartment, which can also lead to detonation of the ammunition.

Most tanks supplied to Ukraine from abroad lack active protection systems. But, in fairness, even if they are present, having already been installed at Ukrainian enterprises, they can do little to help crews against FPV drones.

The Ukrainian Armed Forces openly reflect on this matter when communicating with Western reporters, saying that it becomes extremely problematic to assemble even 3-4 tanks in a small area of ​​terrain for an attack, since the armored group is “quickly tracked by the Russians, after which the arrivals begin.”

Earlier, one of the Ukrainian servicemen, during a radio exchange with colleagues, wondered why white crosses should be painted on Leopard tanks, if on the battlefield it is already clear that they belong to the Ukrainian Armed Forces.

Good news, well done guys, a multi-million dollar Leopard was destroyed with a cheap drone.

[Saburov_Alexander53]

Why paint white crosses on Leopard tanks if it is already clear on the battlefield that they belong to the Ukrainian Armed Forces.
Strange question from the guy. This is for the convenience of aiming for our soldiers... you align the crosshairs of your sight with the cross on the tank and... it’s very convenient!

[Aken]

You also need to learn to draw crosses in certain places.
If it flies into the tower, the crew is screwed. If it flies into the engine, they may have time to escape.
So let them take care of their health in advance.

In the game "World of Tanks" there are decals with penetration zones! The player who uses such a chip sees where to shoot in the enemy tank in order to set the engine on fire, explode the ammunition, crit the crew, etc. Why are ukroleopards worse?

[Aken]

If the ATGM or drone were homing, this option would be useful. But judging by the operator’s video of the launch, such precision is simply unattainable.

[Trapp1st]

Good news, well done guys, a multi-million dollar Leopard was destroyed with a cheap drone.

Allow me a fly in the ointment, if you believe sources like Ultimate American (yes, I understand, but our data does not) over the past 7 days, the command of the Russian Armed Forces lost 127 tanks there alone.

[Aken]

If the data is from Okrug, you need to divide by 10.

[French messenger]

not by 10 - a fair amount of equipment was lost near Avdeevka. and there are quite a few people, unfortunately.
but we are not on the defensive, so the losses have increased significantly.

[Bulgarian]

Ours are your Ukrainians. And if you are from Russia, then why are you writing this? But what am I talking about? And it’s clear where you’re coming from.

[rotmistr60]

The number of Leopard tanks of the Ukrainian armed forces shot down by FPV drones of the Russian Armed Forces has reached at least three over the past three days.

What is confirmed by means of control (for those who constantly require evidence). These are not the first and certainly not the last, so Ukrainian dreams of another “wonderwaffe” were dashed by the first destroyed Leopards, and then the Challengers. The same awaits the Abrams.

[Argon]

I’m very nervously waiting for videos of Abrams on fire! Preferably all delivered.

[Old Operator]

Yes, and preferably in Lviv.

[Saburov_Alexander53]

It is strange that in the absence of the simplest protection from above, the Ukrainian Armed Forces do not make visors over the Leopards. Israel had enough of one Merkava “killed” by the Hamas forces, a drone with a “carrot”, and they immediately began to cover not only the turret, but the entire projection of the tank with visors.
It’s clear that if our T-90, according to the tank commander’s story, was hit by as many as 9 shells and drones from different sides and it survived on the battlefield, which indicates good standard protection without a pile of visors... but here... It’s not a pity, let it be are burning.

[Ross xnumx]

This is good news. This is exactly what a SVO should be like. So that the Nazi bastard could never feel safe.
Good luck and success to our guys!

Operators of FPV drones of the Russian Armed Forces knocked out at least three Leopard tanks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine

As one of the ancients said: “What brought joy to God and joy to the army!”
Well done operators! Beat these fascist roosters harder!
They were afraid to approach the tanks!

[coinsam]

What's interesting here is the degree of damage caused. Has at least one of the tanks been lost?

[rotmistr60]

Has at least one of the tanks been lost?

And you watch videos on the Internet and see how the tank’s ammunition detonates and you will understand whether it has gone “irrevocable” or not.

[Alexander 3]

So I think that if the ammunition detonates, this tank needs to be melted down and remade.

[igorbrsv]

Tracks can be reused

and the tank body on needles

[Crimean partisan 1974]

From abroad, Ukrainian tanks are deprived of active protection systems.

...so the idea was already to drive them around Moscow and Yalta, breaking all the lines of defense of the Russian Federation...and for this active protection is not needed...active protection is good against single attacks in buildings...but in meat assaults it is useless. ..yes, just like Leo-2 itself

[Pankrat25]

What do you mean why? To make it easier to aim!

[Oleg Apushkin]

Good news, defenders of success and soldierly ingenuity in military affairs.

[LeutnantTom]

Well done and keep going. So the Leopard tank is just a myth, just like the Tiger. funny german war propaganda.
what a shame for Rheinmetall. what German idiot came up with the idea to send German tanks against Russia again 80 YEARS after the 3rd World War. Scholz, Baerbock, Habeck, Flag Zimmerman, von der Leyen and others, stupid politicians.

Yes, the Tiger - at one time he really was a problem when he met with ours, but this one is not so much .. which cannot but rejoice

Quote from LeutnantTom

and even with “Russian by blood” crews... the “impossible is possible” really turns out... 50 years ago, if you said that, you would have been written off as a fool...

[rocket757]

"Regular" combat process, slightly stimulated by an increased bonus.
In general, this is not the place for them!

[Boycott]

The story develops in a spiral, once the main enemy of tanks was helicopters, now they have been replaced by drones. But the tendency to hit from above continues. I hope our bright minds in the defense industry have already found an antidote.

[Artyom Savin]

Did the ammunition explode or are they finishing it off with artillery? Hit ≠ destroyed, if not, they will drag it away and fix it.

[Velya]

The video of objective control (unfortunately, is not always available, but it is available on these tanks) shows that the Leopards are burned out

[Velya]

Yes, BEAVERs (those FPV operators) work just great.
And yes, the news is slightly incorrect - 3 “cats” in TWO days, not three.

[KCA]

First Person View is a general name, FPV can be done and Orion, but usually these are small copters that carry a grenade weighing 200 grams, or a shot from an RPG, a dozen simple anti-personnel grenades, well, it’s not at all critical for a tank, the attachment will cut off, but the tank will remain on the move and with a living crew

[GGV]

[quote][/quote]is this article level or am I missing something? What is “active protection”? I know, they call it dynamic protection, but it’s somewhat inactive. Educate your comrades

[ZovSailor]

Well done patriots of Russia.
Nemchura quickly forgot what the Nazis promised after 1941-1945. at the Nuremberg trials in 1946, and then at the Potsdam Conference
Stalin's words about generosity - Hitlers come and go, but peoples remain, so Russians have to remember whether such generous forgiveness is needed now
winner to the fascists and Nazis unleashed in the world?
What do your colleagues think? The Banderonazis respond to a humane attitude towards prisoners with cruelty, generating a response, and the geyropa with the arrogant Saxons and Syoma support
such actions of fascists all over the world.
The Yankees instructed the Banderreich not to release the Abryams after the burning Leopards and Challengers;
and who is in the subject,
What are the MO prices for a broken Abryam?
