  • I think the only reason seeing western tanks destroyed comes as a shock to anyone, is that until now, they've exclusively fought in a environment devoid of modern anti tank weapons, actual trained personnel and enemy air cover. We got used to seeing them fight in places like Iraq where all the other aspects utterly dominated making for a perfect situation for these tanks to fight in.

    • Chieftain to the Challenger two used two-piece ammunition which might be the case for not adding blow-out panels. It might be that the charge bins are enough to delay- a premature cook-off of the ammo thus having a higher chance of the crew bailing out in which Soviet crews do not have.

    • It was never claimed to be invincible, a fact was put forward often, that it had never been destroyed. Challengers have take MILAN rockets, RPGs, mines, you name it, it's eaten one before, the armour is excellent, but like all vehicles there are weaknesses, and it was inevitable that they would lead one day to the destruction of one. The fact is, the Leopards have been getting fucking minced, the Chally's have not, even when you account for their lesser prevalence. People like to hate on the Challenger because of the mythos around it, and it's nation of origin, but the facts are that if nothing at all, they are incredibly tough nuts to crack.

    • Part of this was also the doctrine adopted by the British army at the time, which is significantly different to modern Ukranian doctrine. The Challenger was always meant for a long range role, boasting an accurate gun, FCS and working from a hull-down position. A lot of these drawbacks you mentioned are significantly lessened once you take this into account.

      @tyrbaan7295@tyrbaan72958 ай бұрын

    • The rifled gun is less effective as an antitank gun, true, but MORE effective as self-propelled artillery (more accurate at longer range, can use squash head against masonry). It's a serious disadvantage for the purpose for which it was designed (picking off T72s on the North German plain) but is actually an advantage for trench warfare like this.

    • @@tyrbaan7295 You're right. The Challenger 2 programme was capable in the cold war doctrine for all the reasons you pointed it out. But that was the bare minimum for the time and didn't leave much room for a changing doctrine. In contrast, comparable NATO tanks of the era like Leopard 2 (designed to serve in a similar theatre) have adapted better to changing doctrines. If it hadn't been for such a tight budget, I think they could've made Challenger 2 more adaptable to different conditions. After all, the UK was part of the Korean war a few decades prior where they had to go on the offensive in combined arms operations.

    • Its not just wet storage its armoured wet storage were its protected against fragments generated by apfsds, heat or hesh not direct hits. In the video we don't know if the fire was from direct hit or from fragments. If former then how safe the crew is difficult to say if latter than if the crew followed the SOP of only opening ammo storage which is needed than they would be safe and had gotten enough time to bail out. In a friendly fire and in a cannon malfunction cases, the ammo inside armored wet bins found to be perfectly fine even when fire has swept through everything. In friendly fire case the hesh hit the turret cupola which poured hot fragments inside causing fire with ammo outside the armoured bin.

The reason a Challenger 2 has not been destroyed up until this point is because no one has been dumb enough to drive one in to a mine field to get mobility killed, then consecutively hit over and over because there are no reinforcements to come aid their detracked tank.
