Spotted Leopard In Syria

 Here is a leopard tank with burn spots in Syria from some years back.

Of course as you can see burning Leopard tanks is nothing new, they burned before but it is the Abrams tank that has been destroyed in greatest numbers across the entire Middle East and in the Arab world, with dozens US military admitted losses of Abrams tanks which likely means hundreds destroyed in actuality.

It must be stated, again, that there is nothing wrong with western tanks. 

Some self-styled military experts continue to claim , rather in the face of available evidence, that there is nothing wrong with with Western tanks; that maybe so but then again as our guest expert General Sokolowski (Retd) says there is nothing particularly right with them either. 

On balance, they are obviously inferior to the old Soviet era Russian tanks and especially to newer Russian designs.

General Sokolowski says he could elaborate on that last statement of his but doing so will serve to make someone wiser and making people wiser for free is one thing General Sokolowski is trying to avoid in his daily life and especially in his professional career as an expert on military matters.

For as they say...

How terrible is wisdom when it brings no profit to the wise

Also, our expert general Sokolowski says would like to point out that one should remember that old Soviet- and current Russian antitank weaponry has been designed specifically to target, and to be most effective against, NATO armor assets, including American British and German tanks and that’s what it’s now doing and that’s what it does best.

And as you have been seeing it is pretty effective. Where a t-64 tank might take three hits to kill, only one is enough to kill, for example, the giant British rust bucket that is the Challenger 2, with the Challenger being harder to miss too.
