Russians Captured a Leopard 2A6. What Can They Learn From It ??

After getting so close to capturing one, over and over again, Russians actually managed to capture one Leopard 2 tank, more than a year after they'd been delivered to Ukraine, and not just any Leopard 2, but the Leopard 2A6, one of the most advanced Main Battle Tanks out there.

Outro: "face away" - svard
The probable reason why the Russian guy mistook the tank for Leopard 2A5 is because the markings inside the hull of Leopard 2A6 tanks still retain Leopard 2A5 labels after the 2A6 upgrade. I was not aware of this, but a friend of mine, Tobias, who used to serve on a Leopard 2A6 in Bundeswehr, pointed this out to me. Picture of the label inside a random Leopard 2A6: imgur.com/a/O25Eu9I
Thank you for all the interesting details you point out in your videos and comments. There are always a lot of things I overlooked or never thought about even though I'm into military hardware for a long time now.
Hey dummy, Ukraine got leopard 2A4. They are not getting new tanks 😂😂😂
The Russians captured an engineering mine clearing vehicle M1150 ABV based on the Abrams,near Berdychi. The video of this is at night. The rear of the vehicle is burned but the front and middle section appear to be in good condition.
How do you tell it apart from Stridsvagn 122? The on that is improved by Sweds?
I dont think they will learn that much from this tank and i wouldn't be surprised if we see some Russian propaganda.

Being a German Bundeswehr Veteran of the 23rd Gebirgsjägerbrigade with a whole Family of German Veterans including Eastern Front WW2, i find it hilarious that there are People who thought that if you send any Western Tanks to Ukraine that none of them would be captured and studied. The same Thing happened in all the Wars. The Soviet Russians captured Tiger Tanks, Panzer 3s, Stugs etc. thats just part of War. And we Germans captured all the Soviet Russian Tanks as well and studied them. It's weird to especially see so many Western Journalists be so surprised by this happening. This is just whats gonna happen either way and every Military knows this will happen. Just like Russians are aware Ukraine will capture their Technology. Prost & Cheers from Berchtesgaden in the Bavarian Alps
War zu erwarten ja, nur ist halt die Frage wieviel sie von einem veralteten Panzer lernen wollen was sie nicht eh schon wissen. Soviel ich weiß sind das alles Leoparden die ursprünglich stand A5 waren und daher auch veraltete armorpackages haben. Viel interessanter wäre es doch zu wissen welche neuen Erkenntnisse die NATO aus den modernen T-90Ms ziehen kann.
I believe this is the best NATO tank

Thank you for your comment, some common sense and truthful information is hard to find on this platforme.
not to mention mbts are extremly obsolete in this new drone warfare. the t90 with the top cage are probably better in overall usability edit: pls guys im sorry, tanks are NOT obsolete
"There are things they can't manufacture, because their factories are tooled differently." Wow, just for once, someone who gives a statement like this CORRECTLY! Damn, that's RARE! Tooling can always be changed though, so if they see something they do like, they might make it part of the nextgen upgrade for their own vehicles. "There is nothing in that machine that they don't know." Overall, no. But there's probably some details here and there that they do not have the exact measures and composition of previously. So, it's unlikely to provide anything truly useful, but it does have some minor parts that could be interesting to Russia, like the easy maintenance setup, as the Leo2 engineers spent a LOT of effort on those, and it might be a viable improvement to Russian tanks, depending on if it fits their logistics chain of course. Making an improvement that speeds up maintenance by 25%, but also forces you to replace thousands of toolsets in your logicistics chain, is really NOT an improvement.

So they may not actually have meant that it drove over a mine. If they said it got hit by a "mine" it could mean a lot of things in reality since this is sort of a catch all term.

@@afaf9292 ну это похоже на неправильный перевод слова миномёт. и правда...
if the Germans were actually afraid of the tank getting captured, they wouldn't have allowed anyone to send them to Ukraine as with arms sales you need an export licence from the original seller (Germany in this case) for re-exporting/transferring them to another country.
i mean if you put anything into service for an armed force its already figured to be "capturable" to some variance
It still has the same DTech Armor that the leo2a7 has, if nothing else they know the exact rha they need to penetrate.
It’s a value proposition. You can be afraid to have something captured and you can send it anyway. It just depends depends how much there is to gain from sending it or to lose from not sending it. There certainly is tech that nations would rather not let out of their own jurisdiction. That’s why there Export models of vehicles and equipment, and exporting in general is not just a question of money. Realistically Europe doesn’t have the quantity of tanks to pick and choose what they send.
Germany sent Leopard 2A6, so no re-export or licence involved. Conclusion remains the same: they looked at the pros and cons and decided to go ahead.

Most War Thunder 'leaks' turn out to be unclassified documents anyone can access with an Internet connection. I think only one was a genuine leak, the Leclerc traverse speed if I remember correctly.

If you watch Spookston he had a video from a while ago on a Cold War US tank, I think it was either the M41 or M60.

@@alikaraahmet5050 I thought Russia's real army was still held in reserve in case of a conflict with NATO, and that only the lower tier stuff was in Ukraine. If that was the case, why would there have been dozens of tanks and hundreds of armored vehicles at the 2022 parade, when in 2023 there was literally one (1) T-34 as the only tracked vehicle in the parade. Are the rest of the normally dozen T-34s on the borders? Russia is not building 20-25 tanks a week. They might, on a really, really good week, restore that many old tanks from mothballs. If they were really building that many new you wouldn't see anything but T-90Ms and T-80BVMs on the front line these days, instead of seeing VDV units using T-54s for assaults. If they had that production capability, they would be putting it into artillery shells and cruise missiles, both of which they are severely constrained in (aside from the NK artillery shells they got).

Yes - the propellants and the projectiles will be of great value. The armor must be studied by the material science group.
Oly if they can actually reverse engineer the polymer (thats always troublesome, its kind alike unmixing chocolatemilk)
OMG there will be no parade with captured hardware on 9. May. There is already a display of captured hardware in Moscow on Poklonnaya Gora.
It is a very vulnerable tank, that's why they abandoned it, by the way, they faced a real army and not sheep herders, that's why it looks like many tanks.
Low-sensitive inert explosives in shells are not used in Russian tanks, since they are many times more expensive than conventional explosives, they are worse in cumulative shells, and the bulk of the shells in Russian tanks come from warehouses from Soviet times, when inert shells were not produced. In any case, the shells in Soviet tanks are open without metallic casings (just like the automatic loader itself is not protected by armor, at least from the crew), and simply the ignition of gunpowder is inevitable and also destroys the tank irrevocably. The use of low-sensitive explosives in shells is expensive, reduces the effectiveness of explosives by one and a half times, reduces the armor penetration of shaped charges, which is not high anyway, and will not provide sufficient protection without other measures - increasing armor, maintaining armor protection for the ammunition from the crew, separating powder charges from explosives , creating knockout panels to allow the gunpowder flame to escape or throwing a burning container of gunpowder out of the tank. Inert explosives have been known for a long time, they are weaker, and they do not protect against damage from cumulative jets or other very harsh shaking - but can only withstand a small fire or impact from fragments - which is not now the main means of destruction - from cumulative jets
Gaijin gonna add an upgraded T90m
Far too complicated for a mere Russian
The the Rheinmetall 120 mm L/55 smoothbore gun is a good catch
Abrams tanks were also captured and now they're in Moscow on display.
Sholtz left his underpants in the tank and wants it back.
*Scholz...at least get his name right^^
ukraine capture t-90 m russian people still calm russian capture leopard-2 germany people triggered
@@scpgaming-452 i dont think we are triggered either, no. Tanks that get used will be lost and potentially captured. this is the case for any and all vehicles
@@scpgaming-452Ukraine use Russian tanks anyways , but Russia don't use Leopards . That's the point dude , this is why people get excited.
*panties
considering how many (and which) countries have bought these, i doubt there is much russia doesn't know about these yet, except maybe some of the specialized components. I also doubt the russians will be able to conjure up the industrial capabilities to reproduce the electronic components, optics etc., as they lack the german high tech industry. just because you know what something is made of, doesn't mean you have the means to reproduce it. this is a trophy taken, and the innards a bargaining chip with the chinese.
And what exactly can't be replicated?
По факту тут и без копирования "высокой немецкой технологичности " наша армия жгëт всю эту технику. Как бы пользы от этой немецкой оптики мы не видим😂😂😂😂 Значит получается мы должны прятать от Запада свои секреты.
@@iansysoev9462the optics, fire control systems, electronics, engine, most likely the gear box can't be copied.
@@Blackreaper95microelectronics - yes, but Russia has its own. Everything else you mentioned - can be replicated
@@iansysoev9462 definitely not the optics
Thanks for your video
You say there is no damage resembling a mine, but in the clip at 2:21, the left track is indeed knocked off, maybe from the rpg or whatever. But it still remains the track was knocked off. You can clearly see the track ends before the first road wheel.
Russians Captured a Leopard 2A6: What Can I Learn From It ?? Turkey: Hi there !!
What do you mean i dont understand how its related to Turkey. Please explain , thanks
@@ozymandiastr8554 it isnt, the 2a6 was never sold to turkey, turkeys most modern leo is the 2a4
@@ozymandiastr8554 Turkey lost a few Leopards 2 in Syria, Russia received at least one of them just slightly older.
@@ozymandiastr8554 turkey lost some leopards in syria, and russia took advantage of it by also them being present in syria
@@buddy1155 Slightly is a bit of an understatement... 2A4 is from the 80s, 2A6 is 2017
i just dont understand why a lot of people thinks that russians are living in the stone age.
Because they loot toilets and washing machines as status symbols.
Good point. Russians have limitations due to their industrial base, and history of relatively cheap and replaceable, and simple. That doesn't mean they are stupid (except maybe the management).
@@ODST6262Their military production is larger than nato combined, the only problem they really have is budget but with the steady and fast rise of brics that probably won’t be a problem in a few years
Russian are poorer then the average European
Let them say whatever, this is the exact reason why Russia is beating Ukraine on the battlefield. Muhh superior western tech.
That SCDB propellant would probably be very interesting for the Russians and their relatively vulnerable ammo storage in their own tanks - if they can figure out a way to mass-produce it. But as with anything in Russia, that's a pretty big 'if'.
Most important things won't even be ammo, armor or whatever. It's the really complicated stuff. Engine. Transmission. South Korea is one of the leading countries in the automotive industry and has only recently developed engine and transmission to replace the German RENK and MTU combo in the K2 Black Panther. Tank transmissions are more complicated than one would think. And even though the Leopard 2 transmission is ancient compared to something like the HSWL 256, it's still miles ahead of anything Russia can mass produce. Remember the latest T-90 still can't turn the tracks in opposite directions like western tanks. It's one track stop the other moves, but not both in opposite directions.
They will learn that its just as useless as all the other leopards that were destroyed before it
Bro they could get the same info on the wt forums. Waste of time
when it comes to mines there are many types of anti tanks ,some of then can be exploded by the vibration of the tank not necessary destroying the chains it might hit the belly of the tank and these type can kill the driver ,some of them can follow the heat and can jump from the ground and stick to the exhaust some of then can follow the radio signal, some of them can be detonated from far away ....etc
Rebuilding an enemy tank without spare parts is difficult to do. Hell, it's hard to do it for tanks that have been out of service for over 40 years, let alone trying to rebuild old WW2 tanks. Rebuilding some of those took years. Replacing a random bolt from an engine assembly is very difficult if you have to reverse engineer the bolts size, thread, and hardness.
It looks like we will soon have a review of the Abrams M1, which, according to leaked documents, had a Dm63a1 upd: M1150 has already been taken from Stepovoye (Although not soon, because the leopard 2a6 was taken only after the front end was pushed back 3.5 km (but strv 122 was pulled out of the gray zone🤔))
this music...😌
they dont have spare parts in the meaning they dont have means to produce them, but they do have other leopard wrecks. probably lot of parts are interchangeable between a5 and a6 so it is a posibility that they may be able to actually fix it up.
Considering the damage on the interiour… doupt it, that tank is heavily damaged and the russians simply do not have the tools nor the experience needed to fix it, hell even a western tank depot with the tools and trained repair crews would find this hard to fix, not saying its impossible but at best the ruskies can get the thing driving under its own power but that is about as far as I see that thing getting working and even that is a long shot seeing as the tank was hit in the engine and lord only knows what is broken or burnt to cinders in there
Welp, time to wait till WT update and add some juicy info about this tank
если автора послушать так выходит что подорожник надо приложить и все танк снова на ходу🤣
Hopfully the russian goverment will relase offical documentation about what they learned on the gijian forums so leo in WT can be %100 accurate 🙏
I don´t think Russia will copy the propellant. The reason is that its quite a bit more expensive to produce, and Russia does use more ammo in general making that to costly. It would not surprise me if Russia already had the ability to produce those propellant, but lacked the capacity.
Hi RedEffect. Could you make a video about the T-64 and T-80UD in Russian service before this war and in it. In general it seems that these tanks were removed from service because of parts supply issues, because the factory of these tanks is in Ukraine. But I have read that the LPR and DPR had at the maximum around 400 T-64's, in addition there were videos of T-64's being removed from fields and put on trains, in Russia. About the T-80UD, as far as I know, the tank wasn't confirmed to be present on the front line on the Russian side, but there were claims that they were removing them storage. In addition there is a video, in which was claimed and showed that T-80UD's specifically, were being moved by train. I wasn't able to find more information about them.
They’ll find that it’s missing putinium
If I'm not mistaken, T-90M got captured by ukra in the early phase of war, yes? What do they do to the tank?
They probably gave it to nato but knowing the corruption in the ukr military some general might have scrapped it and sold the good high value parts to collectors and warlords
3 have already been captured + 10 T-90A and 1 T-90AK
@RedEffectChannel Is it worth to go full time infantry in CAF instead of reserve
interesting for russians: optic gear and the performance of vision and time needed to see an acquire diffrent targets at diffrent ranges stabelisers maybe the ammo yes the engine ? possible
nothing they will say their own tanks are better😂
Omg Russia now has a tank that won’t completely evaporate its crew when hit 🤣🤣
Tukish 2a4 : Y-ye-yeah ha-haha 😅
Very Briefed And Summarized Ideas : Notice that the gun barrel has damage or holes that may indicate that it was hit by shrapnel, usually when the tanks driving inside land mines field it turn the main gun backwards so that it is not affected by the pressure ,shrapnel produced by the continues mines explosion, and I do not know why the Russians want to distort how the tank was damaged into a story that the mobility of the tank was killed by a mine and then its destruction occurred using FPV, in the end: 1- for the Russians to say that they used primitive shoulder launcher to damage a tank in the caliber of the Leopard A5/A6, which led to its abandonment, and its removal from the Ukrainian battle order, is considered a great achievement that exceeds in value the killing of the mobility using mines and then destroying it using loitering ammunition. In the end, the Russian soldiers’ chances while using unguided RPGs to knockout a main battle tank are considered average, especially with the topographical complexities and under the pressure of engagement... 2- In both stories, the tank was disabled using the same HEAT ammunition, so what is the point from attributing the disabling of the tank to land mines instead of first shoot kill especially when using the same ammo's... Let's get to the heart of the matter : what will the Russians benefit from the leopard A6: 1- the overall designing, as the larger size translates into higher protection possiblity and a friendly useing environment for tank crew, the sperate ammunition storage, and the effectiveness of the blowout panel... 2- the fire management system, especially the ballistic computer, while the multi-channel sighting device were catastrophically damaged... 3- the engine which is a weak point in the Soviet and then Russian tanks and engine industries, not only it is possible to reverse engineer the engine and then make the necessary engineering improvements, upgrading and developments to it before launching mass production, especially since Russian diesel powered tanks are using engines whose designs date back to WW2, but the engine of the nasty germans tank is generally characterized by its: easy to perform field maintenance on, lift and replace during, with the electronic inspection and diagnosis feature, without the need to dismantle the engine and examine it mechanically... 4-the efficiency, reliability and the durability of the electrical stabilizing system is one of the most important components in the tank for an advanced modern fire management system, especially for a turret in the size and weight of the leopard tank, but I disagree with you on the part of the cost or price of the Russian electrical stabilizing system (unless its components and devices are cheaper) in the end the system used on the leopard will not be cheaper than its Russian counterpart, and this partly explains the difference in the price of the state of art Russian t90ms, compared to the price of the second hand and obsolete Leopard 2a4, One of the reasons for the differences in prices of the tanks is due to the costs of the components, and here is what can be considered the quantity and quality of the accessories the tank equipped with... 5- the Weapons systems are divided into: A- the rheinmetall 120mm L55, which is superior to the Russian 120 mm 2a46 L48 gun in terms of durability or the number of shells fired before it needs to be replaced, and provides performance data superior to its Russian counterpart... B- the coaxial 20 mm rapid-fire gun, this caliber can either be adopted as coaxial machine gun on board the t14 Armata, or replace the auxiliary 12.7mm with a 20mm caliber, or add it alongside the 12.7mm to increase and diversify the auxiliary firepower, especially with the utilization of unmanned turret, distributing the tank crew inside the hull and expansion the usage of artificial intelligence applications... 6- the munitions, and propellent, especially the AFPSDs and the mp-high explosive-tracer dm11 munitions withIHE (Insensitive High Explosive) warhead with a programmable fuse and ballistic cap, which provide better overall performance regarding the penetration and programmable destruction capabilities than its Russian counterparts and have a maximum range equal to or higher than the Russian one, but perhaps the maximum range is related to the elevation of the tank gun barrel, even when a less power propellant charge is used...
20 year old German tech. For Russians like a toilette in the house.........
