          As for the suspension - then Leo torsion, Chelen 2 hydropneumatic.

            Yes, I wrote it wrong crying , the Germans developed a hydropneumatic suspension for Leopard, but it turned out that it turns out to be more expensive than the calculated budget and settled on torsion bars, I read in a Swedish article that the British took this development on Challenger 2, I don’t argue how much this corresponds to reality. Why did you call Leopard and not Boar? Do you have such a picture?

              Yes, I wrote it wrong

              Between 1972 and 1974, the year 16 hulls and 17 towers of the Leopard 2 were built. Ten prototypes equipped 105-millimeter rifled gun, and the rest - 120-millimeter smooth-bore guns of the company Rheinmetall. Two cars used hydropneumatic suspension. However, in the end, designers preferred an improved torsion bar.That's where it is.

      Genes take their toll ... in profile and rushing Tigrine inheritance, especially the silhouette of the body. I'm afraid tradition has nothing to do with it. MG on the tower, still the skull of the "Dead Head" on the black takes a tanker ... frost on the skin, genetic memory cannot be turned off

          I just wanted to note modestly that the Jews are trying their technique in battle. e.g. battle near Sultan Yaakub 1982 Lebanon

          Israeli tanks and infantry fought 91 and 76 Syrian tanks. div and with 58 fur. div

          that is, the battle was tank. for Israel, the losses were high (in exile). the tanks were tested in battle, conclusions were drawn, experience gained.
          .

          and when did the Germans have the last tank battle?

          tanks do they do but check how? in the dash?

            The Germans had their last combat experience for a long time, because everyone knows that they have the best equipment and a powerful army, and no one is climbing. Here you will have the same successes, too, everything will lag behind Israel.

                I think the success of Germany is well known. If you are interested in the military aspect, then in two world wars they proved that no country can cope with them alone, and even with defeat they inflicted much more damage to the opponents than they themselves. I don’t know about you, but after that I don’t want to face them again.
                As for German technology, it is enough to look around on the street to understand what's what.

                      Well, the fact was that the Germans, with the codes of their allies, put up more soldiers against us than we opposed them.
                      According to the losses, even taking into account the defeats 41-42, we came out about one to one (without taking into account the atrocities against the civilian population and prisoners of war). They beat us at the beginning, we beat them afterwards, and they started to beat them when their coalitions were great in terms of human resources. That’s all.
                      Naturally, no one belittles the fighting ability of the Wehrmacht, like trampling all the strongest armies of Europe on the continent, but about the fact that they inflicted much greater losses on us than we did to them. If we treated them in the same way that they would not have left us Germans.

This is in Europe and only before the attack on the USSR. The industry of these states worked for Germany. The armaments of these statehood went to the Wehrmacht (Lufwaffe and Kriegsmarine).

                        Thank you for the Hungarians for reminding us, but the blue division was voluntary, Spain did not fight with anyone.
                        The fact that the Germans defeated the enemies in parts is a merit of the German diplomats and strategists. No one held the French hand in 1939 or the hand of the USSR in 1940. Smart people start a war when it is profitable for them, and there is nothing to be ashamed of.

                        No one denies that there was little use from them, but much less sense from Germany's allies. Suffice it to recall the "successes" of Italy and their "invaluable help" to the Germans, who constantly rescued them in Africa, in Greece, then in Italy itself. And it was still the most powerful ally. I don't want to talk about Romanians and Bulgarians at all.
                        Conclusion: when we say that Germany attacked the USSR together with the allies, we must not forget about the allies of the USSR, which were much stronger than the allies of Germany.

For them, there are those millions of Soviet wars who died defending their homeland only because in relation to the Germans , they died "impermissibly" a lot.

                        I’m tired of already writing on this topic and generally writing today :))). Are you not able to count the troops yourself before you start responding?
                        Let's go like this:
                        we called under arms about 34 million. The active army sent about 24 million, this is when you consider the war with Japan.
                        The Germans put under arms from 21 to 24 million soldiers according to various sources (pedagogy speaks of over 21 million).
                        Further, Romania - over a million, Hungary - over a million, Finland - I do not remember the constant average number of their army - 550-600 thousand.
                        What about volunteers? There are 60 thousand more Poles in our captivity (taken in the ranks of the Germans) than the Italians, I doubt it very much. that the Poles surrendered to us more readily than the Italians. Czechs took even more, about 70 thousand, 150 thousand Austrians. even more than 20 thousand Yugoslavs. I hope you understand. what did we not capture all?
                        Even the insignificant hundred thousandth Luxembourg gave the Germans 10 thousand soldiers, over one and a half thousand of which were captured by us ....
                        Can you imagine. what number is being recruited? the same Dutch. The Danes and Norwegians died more in a fight with us. than at the hands of the Germans during the capture with us and for the entire period of occupation, yes they were more willing to fight against us. than against Hitler ... In general, consider for yourself, this is interesting. All material is publicly available. In the process of counting you will learn a lot. I am not kidding.
                        And about the losses, about one to one is obtained. if you do not take into account the prisoners of war who died in captivity.
                        Only in December 41 - early January, only the Germans lost 120 thousand soldiers in battles with the Soviet troops (we are 140), this is more than they lost during the capture of almost all of Europe in almost two years of the war. And this is 41 years old. Draw conclusions. And consider yourself there are a lot of sources, to calculate and justify in the comments, it is impossible in principle.

                    The Soviet Union was able to stop the Germans because of the strategic mistakes of the Germans. They were inevitable on such a vast territory (Bismarck spoke about this at the time).

Give you a table from which you you can find out how many Soviet and allied tanks and planes were on one German tank or plane (and then they immediately recall the qualitative superiority of the Germans (forgetting that before that everywhere they tried to find the Is-2 "cooler", etc.?))
                    Imagine now that the Germans destroyed the oil fields of Baku and its coastal territories ... 90% of the "best" tanks and planes of the Second World War could not budge ...

                    There are no invincible troops, but there are troops that are stronger or weaker than each other. The two wars were lost not by German troops, but by the German economy.
                    At the expense of catastrophic results, one should not forget that the Germans rebuilt their country, for which they are worthy of respect, and some still do not remember only the war, since they do not see other successes.

                  I think the success of Germany is well known. If you are interested in the military aspect, then in two world wars they proved that no country can cope with them alone, and even with defeat they inflicted much more damage to the opponents than they themselves. I don’t know about you, but after that I don’t want to face them again.
                  As for German technology, it is enough to look around on the street to understand what's what.


                  You +. I agree with you. For example, in the Second World War until the end of 44 there was not a single major battle, from which the Germans came out with greater losses (total losses (do not remind me of Crete)) than the enemy.

              Under the Balaton, the convoy, in the head of which went the battery of my grandfather (4 regiments +2 DShK in exchange for two more previously lost), ran into German self-propelled guns. They entered the battle from the wheels, both sides opened fire point blank. Grandfather had to get up to the gun, because part of the military ran and the Germans shot them all from machine guns. Strangely enough, the machine gunners did not run and beat the Germans until they were transferred by tanks.
              The battery went down all the way to the last person (grandfather got two holes) but burned 3 assault guns. Reading the award sheet, realizing what is hidden behind the standard lines, is creepy. So. that I have Lake Balaton causes a variety of associations.

              Just one fact. Almost 40% of the total number of permits for the export of weapons to Israel from Germany in 2007 were parts for tanks, armored combat vehicles and SUVs with special armor protection.
              . In 1986, one of the engineers at the AEG factory in Wedel (not far from Hamburg) managed to solve a very difficult problem: to ensure the invariance of the tank gun’s guidance, regardless of the terrain. He designed a device for stabilizing the tank turret, named in the LTDS technical documentation. From now on, when driving at maximum speed and on rough or impassable terrain, there was a 100% guarantee that the barrel was aimed exactly at the target, and this ensured its unconditional defeat. In the language of military experts, this method of combat use is referred to as: selective shooting from a tank at full speed. From that moment on, the Leopard-2 became one of the world leaders in its weapons class. However, the inventor went further. He began to carry out another important order - to adapt LTDS for Merkava-3 - a tank, the work on the construction of which was carried out in Israel. Today, after more than 20 years, military experts state that The Vedel development proved to be excellent, being used on the Merkava-3 and Merkava-4 tanks, though it doesn’t bear the “maiden name” of LTDS, but the “surname of the husband” Geadrive, but this does not affect the effectiveness of the application.
              In 1990, the Bundeswehr inherited the assets of the army of the former GDR, and in 1991 intended to deliver to the Israelis tanks from this property. The Federal Intelligence Agency (Bundesnachrichtendienst, BND) was supposed to ensure exports bypassing parliamentary control bodies. Incidentally, this supply, which was launched in order to exchange information, became known to the public.
              In October 1991, the delivery of weapons to Israel was announced at the port of Hamburg, which was reputed to be the main carrier of agricultural and forestry equipment. The fact of the dispatch was discovered by the coast guard, after which the cargo - tanks disguised as agricultural vehicles - was arrested. Everything would be in order if the water police had been warned, but for some reason they did not think about it. And in this case, the participation of the special services of the Federal Republic of Germany and Israel, which were obliged to be coordinators of supplies, was proved. In the course of further investigation, it turned out that before the indicated action there were 12 more similar and also related to the transfer of weapons. Of course, without coordination with the Federal Security Council. The ending of Hamburg history is interesting: in spite of everything, the tanks were delivered to Israel. The Germans remained true to the word.
              The fate of the 120-mm smoothbore gun on the Leopard-2 tank was notably remarkable. In a rather complicated serpentine way, she found the way from the shops of the manufacturer Rheinmetall to the army units of Israel. Its intermediate routes are known exclusively from classified documents. Another fact related to Merkava is also important: the armor protecting it is created using IDB-Deisenroth technology, other components are delivered from Renk AG in Augsburg, the engines are developed by MTU and assembled from separate parts of the American licensee, and they are sent to Israel from overseas

                In Friedensforum 4/2006, with reference to Die Welt, another project was announced, approved by the Federal Security Council (Bundessicherheitsrat) in June of that year. He provided transfer to Israel to test the Dingo-2 armored fighting vehicle (The Soviet counterpart is a BMP, but with a 5-centimeter armored bottom, a well-protected driver’s cabin, and a speed of 90-100 km / h over rough terrain). Testing was necessary in connection with the plans of Israel to acquire 103 such vehicles. They are especially suitable for use in armed conflicts with militants and to fight rebels, the newspaper notes. While Berlin was shying away from supplies, a Dingo-2 production license was obtained by the US company Textron, which also received an export permit. At the same time, the Israelis notified the manufacturers that they had their own effective weapons, which they intend to install in Dingo-2. Be that as it may, the Friedensforum sums up, quite obviously, "That in a few years, Dingo labeled" Made in Israel "will appear on the roads of the Middle East." The Federal Security Council allowed the delivery to Israel of this type of armored vehicles, although in quantities of not 103, but 150 units, from which we can conclude that the test was successful and German technology once again met expectations.
                One example of component exports to Israel is MTU engines for Merkava-4. In April 2002 alone, 400 MTU 883 V-12 diesel engines were delivered with a contract value of $ 265 million (about 650 thousand for 1 unit).
                Engines for Israeli tanks are supplied through the American company General Dynamics Land Systems, which is licensed to manufacture these engines. Under the name GD 883, the MTU diesel engine is installed in the American M1A2 Abrams tank in the export version (315 units for Saudi Arabia and 218 units for Kuwait). As Military Technology, 6/2000 points out, even in the previous model of the tank - the 3 Merkava-1989 - two German components were present: the RK 304 automatic transmission manufactured by Renk AG and the stabilization system indicated at the beginning of the article on the Geadrive tower of the Extel Systems Wedel tower .

                I kept saying ... Jews (Ashkenazi) are nowhere without Germans ... All the same, you can't fool the gene memory with all sorts of matriarchy ... if you conduct research, it turns out that they are a subclass of Germans ... until 1900 the percentage of "Aryan" they had more than 50% blood. Almost every nation that was spawned by the Germanic (see Germanic branch of peoples) absorbed some kind of "parent" quality (for example, the Swedes (Sveiskie Germans are an old Russian name) ... their technique is not much behind from the German) ... and only one qualities remained primordial ... the ability to fight.

                    In fact, the Germans have been losing their old positions in the economy in the last 40-50 years. If by 1913 Germany surpassed England and France together (that is, approximately twice as much as each separately), and in 1939 it occupied 13,3% of the world economy (without Austria and the Czech Republic, because with them it was 15% ), now Germany has about 5% of world GDP, and England or France exceeds the percentages by 20-25 separately, although as early as 1965 the economies of these two countries together were approximately equal to the economies of divided Germany.
                    And I would not look for the reason in the fools, but in the notorious multiculturalism, since economic growth based on cheap and imported labor does not lead to good.

            When Hezbollah had the Chrysanthemum missile launcher, the Merkava was somehow quickly blown off the battlefield. In Iraq, the T-55 and Type-59 successfully fought against the Abrams. Even from large-caliber machine guns, Abrams turned into a tank destroyer with a non-rotating turret (due to an external additional power plant). On the resource, I already gave comments about sales, a lot depends on marketing and simple lobbying. Remember at least the sale of French Leclerc. So stupid, not stupid, I can't say. It is known from history that positive modernization is obtained only after combat use.

              It’s still necessary to get into Abrams’s power plant, and if you take into account that the tanks don’t drive alone, then the tanks’s task will be completed anyway, and then the damaged unit will be repaired and returned to service.
              Compare sales (as far as I know, the only importer is the Emirates) Leclerc with Leopard export is not entirely correct. Leopard was bought mainly by Europeans, some of them even abandoned their own tanks in his favor.
              No one denies that combat experience is indispensable, but of modern tanks, few have this experience, and the experience is very dubious. The same Abrams or Challenger in Iraq were no more at risk than other Leopards or Leclerci in the exercises.

          T-90 is a deep modernization of the T-72. Do not quibble.

            If the T-72 and T-90 are one tank, why bother people? Really for PR? After all, it so happens that other countries make new tanks, but Russia does not.
            And why is the Merkava war in Palestine considered, but the Leopard in Afghanistan not?

                What is the modification of the Merkava? This is 1982. Modern Merkavas have not changed much since then.

                  So for reference - Israel (for the umpteenth time) fought with Lebanon in the 2000s - by the way, the Lebanese did a good job of merkava there.

                    If my memory doesn’t change me (and this was recently during my lifetime, in contrast to 1982), Israel fought not with Lebanon, but with Hezbollah, but in this case, the comrades of the opponents say that the Leopard’s experience in Afghanistan does not count, To this, I settled only on the war between the regular armies.

                      It is useless to argue with you. One thing for you, and you another. Volkswagen Golf 1 and Golf 5 are also completely different cars, but Golf 5 grew out of the old generation of golfs. This can also be called a deep modernization. Same thing with tanks. And the T90 grew precisely from the T72. If you want to argue for the sake of the process itself, I'm sorry, this is not for me. hi

                        In fact, the Leopard 1 is one tank. The Leopard 2 is another tank, the prototype of which was not the Leopard 1 but a joint project of the MVT-70. If you do not understand the tanks, what are you performing?

                        The difference is very small. For example, T-80BV and T-80 have more rights to give T-80 the index T-84 / 86.

Judging by your nickname, I thought that cars were closer to you. laughing You are right with Leopard, the platform and the truth is different, but in general, in the world tank building, it is not so rare to give new numbers to modernized tanks.

I actually don't care how the numbers are assigned. I am interested in something else: is it possible to record the experience of the T-72 on the T-90? Personally, I doubt it.

I don’t know how armored vehicles are tested, but I think that from the test results you can determine which tank is preferable.

Kuma, piercing armor in Leo, in the BO does not stumble on propellant charges as in the T-72, and this, in fact, and not the BK, leads to the combustion of the crew. The Leo2 / Abrams layout tanks protect the crew from destruction better than the T-72/90, this is proven for the last 20 years, if you take the shelling from RPGs and ATGMs.

                  Yes, we can say mutually exclusive! But where the BC is under the ass of the crew, of course not. It was for this that the BC with the BO was taken out, precisely so that in the event of a hit, the crew could continue the battle, drive the car away and, if this is not possible, leave the car. And in the T-72, when the armor breaks through and the propellant charge ignites, there is no chance. I even brought the layout of the ammunition and propellant charges! Where is it hard ?! And why did they burn hundreds of T-72s then? What did the towers of hundreds of T-72s tear off? And where is at least one similar photo from Abrams? The only Abrams, like 2 in history, whose turret was blown off, are those blown up by huge land mines, such as 3 152mm shells coiled together and a bunch of TNT. Leo2 is successfully used by Danes and Canadians in Afghanistan! It turns out that the Taliban and Al Qaeda have forgotten how to fight in Afghanistan? But there, unlike Syria and the Taliban, there are much more opportunities and professionalism. They were also subjected to powerful land mines and shelling from RPGs and ATGMs. The commander of the Canadian armored forces said so - no other tank has such protection. He also said that the Taliban, after unsuccessful attempts to destroy Leo and responses from the same Leo, no longer even try to burn them with RPGs and ATGMs. After a successful application in Afghanistan, Canada bought another batch of Leo2 and upgraded the rest to the level of Leo2A5M, moreover, orders generally increased from other countries. Especially the mine protection of Leo2 is at the highest level, like all Klauss-Maffai products. It is not necessary to keep the customers of Klauss Muffai products for idiots and it is enough to see how many countries, despite the presence of their developments, have chosen Leo2. Even if Leo2 does not have such a rich experience as Abrams, this does not mean that one can say, "and we do not know how it will be in combat conditions." They are tested by their mother do not grieve, they are fired at, burned, subjected to all kinds of violence, that is, they are doing more and more that would have happened to them in real combat conditions and the successful use in Afghanistan is proof of this.

                      Those in the hull, to the left of the driver, are still isolated from the crew by armor, and not with the crew! Just there is serious armor, in order to get them, you need to be able to break through 2 walls, in both directions, it's like punching a tank through! And those in the rear of the turret are isolated from the crew by knockout panels, so if there is an explosion when hit, it will go outside. In addition, blowing up the BC is completely rare, rather, when hit, as in that video with RPG29 and Abrams, it will simply turn the back of the tower and that's it. I can throw off the famous video of shelling in the rear of the T-72 turret from the RPG29, it is there that you can see perfectly well that the propellant charge caught fire in a moment. This is all some kind of meaningless and endless argument. I know that if you give Russian engineers the same European mechanical engineering, the infrastructure of a high-tech industry, responsible people in the Ministry of Defense, a working prosecutor's office that would cut down on any nepotism, then in Russia cars, tanks and everything else would be made at the highest level. And now the level is not worthy of such a country as Russia. Take the same Ob640 and its further development "Burlak" .. The chassis from the T-80, indisputably better and softer, would have bought the transmission in Ukraine, the Sosna-U .., AZ and BK sights were taken to the rear of the tower. It would be a better tank than today's T-90/72, this Burlak could replace the towers on the T-90/72/80 heap. But UVZ has a strong lobby in the Ministry of Defense, money is being mastered, but nothing new, which has already happened in the USSR, is not being done.

                        Where does the serious armor come from?

                        And those in the stern of the tower are isolated from the crew by kick panels, so if there is a blast when hit,

                        But what a large and easily hit target, high above the ground, it’s straight and asks for the sight.

                        I already wrote that the protection of the stern of the tower of Abrams is several times better than that of the Leopard 2
                        And the video of the burning BC Abrams is also on YouTube.

                        I can throw off the famous video of shelling in the rear of the T-72 tower with RPG29

                        It’s better to skip the video as the Leopard 2 can withstand such a hit. And not in the ass of the tower. The video is more detailed, you’ll find it interesting.

                        German tank Leopard 2A4 Revolution. “Revolution” - this is how the name of the German MBT Revolution (Main battle tank revolution) program, designed to improve the performance of the Leopard 2 tank, is immodestly translated into Russian. For the first time, the Germans spoke about the development of measures to improve existing equipment at the Eurosatory- 2010, and soon showed the Leopard 2A4 demonstration tank, converted in accordance with the program.

                  And what is this Saddam agitation about, which could and could come in handy for destroying A1M1 come in handy for trying to destroy A1M2 SEP v.2? I myself took a grenade launcher course, learned to destroy tanks. So they told me right away that the chances, if you don’t get the first time, are not high to survive, since even a tank of the T55 level will pinpoint where you shot. On this shot and run to the side, to one of the other two, hidden along the radius of grenade launchers .. And even if a modern tank is equipped with 360g cameras + 360g periscope, it’s so easy not to burn, you don’t even have time to aim. Maybe you have not heard, but in the West they learn from mistakes and the pace of modernization is high. At the moment, 1200 SEP v.2 in service with the United States, the Bundeswehr is equipped with the A7 + and, unlike the zombie’s broadcasts, not only on TV. But in Russia, in the event of a war, conscripted crews on tanks from T-62/55 to T-90, of various configurations, without and with DZ will again be sent. What was sent to Georgia again? And how many laudatory gears were about the T-90 super tanks? About the fast pace of rearmament with them, etc.? And where were they?

                      They will equip as needed. If competitors have nothing serious yet, then where to rush? Even Leo3 with a 140mm cannon and AZ is already in principle in the regiment and waiting in the wings .. But when they saw that a potential tank manufacturer, for potential opponents, nothing has changed seriously for the last 20-30 years, so they decided not to procrastinate. And active battalions, n. in Afghanistan, they put on their Leo2A5M "hips" from the A7 + on the hull and on the turret in order to protect the crew from the RPG7, the mine protection is also being finalized, after the death of the mechanic from the Danes on the land mine in the A5.
