L2 A4 in Afrin. (nevermind the title and stupid PKK terrorist). The explosion is beyond any T-series.
Any penetration from front, side, above or beneath can be fatal.
To my knowledge, yes for A6 and A7.
this is how exposed the crew is.
Any mediocre munition will penetrate and lead to a massive explosion.
L2 is as big of an overhyped piece of trash as the t-series. Of course, we knew it after its performance in actual combat during Turkiye’s intervention...
L2 also has a 2nd ammo storage in the front of the hull, which will also send the crew super cruising.
Turkiye suffered such an event during their operation on Afrin.
There is a video of a Ukrainian tank setting a record for turret tossing. However, uncertain if it is a L2 or some t-series. ruskies claim it is a L2, but then again they are known liars. That being said, L2 has similar flaws as the t-series with the ammunition being exposed.
The offensive is quickly becoming a disaster for Ukraine. Making the same mistakes russia made.
Ukraine lost 10% of their Bradley's in this scene. Unsustainable
I am not really concerned about Bavar 373 but rather they vast array of highly mobile medium altitude SAM systems. Hard to take them out and be certain that an area is cleared for more vulnerable platforms.
And how would you deliver them against Iran/Israel. Turkiye would not be able to establish complete air superiority against either country. Iran's air defence will be a problem and no chance you could fly in a c-130 to drop the bomb.
This is stupid from start to end.
Really seems like Demir was demoted. He is now the chairman of a steel producing conglomerate. What a step backwards for a man who did his job well for so many years. Quite sad
This is the issue. Most navies when purchasing new platforms will seek to have weapon and sensor commonality with their existing platforms. This gives a significant unfair competitive advantage to countries which have been in the business for a long time.
Turkiye needs to somehow break the...
Iran cannot afford a major conflict with Afghanistan. They now that if they commit significant resources to the Afghan border, Israel will have a golden opportunity to strike them. Afghanistan knows this as well, thus, the government is being very aggressive with the Iranians.
