Are these divisions the same thing in each country, though? The Russians are heavy on what they perceive as force multipliers, but lack infantry & logistics, & their fielded tech is a generation behind NATO.
Britain once again relearning lessons forgotten with the end of the Cold War.

Not a single RWS among them. This looks more like a loggies company than a spearhead battalion. Is the army expecting to just run people over😂?

The same people who say "Europeans should pay their share" ignore Ukrainians who are paying with their lives.

Lee Miller was the girlfriend at the time of surrealist painter and camoufleur Roland Penrose, from whom the ‘Pen’ in PenCott camouflage is derived. Penrose would apparently slip photos of a partially nude Miller into his lecture slides on camouflage to liven things up a bit 😂

@LivFaustDieJung I don’t think the point is about the protection level itself but rather that disproportionately many Abrams and Leopards are lost because of the battleship Tirpitz effect. The Russians are spending a lot of resources specifically in hunting them instead of other vehicles
@LivFaustDieJung My fav meme on the topic, that I take out whenever someone goes "haha Abrams shit":
@covrovski The crew survives & it's likely not even a mobility kill. I gotta disagree.
@RoadHazard19 *All* tanks are equally vulnerable to top down attack. That's why it's an entire category of weapon.
@TortueMinable There is no universe where NATO can supply the whole backbone of it's strength without decades & hundreds of billions (at once not over time).
political handholding, & so long as it doesn't impair our force readiness or risk technology getting to our enemies, without limits. But given that the checkbook is not unlimited, let's stretch the dollar value as far as we possibly can. Ukraine needs tanks. Any & all tanks.
Every Abrams tanks is worth somewhere between 4-10 ATACMs or 25-60 GMLRS. Or dozens of HMMWVs. Or 10-15 MRAPs. Or 1 to 2.5 Bradleys. Those systems *were* sent at scale & with sufficient support & infrastructure. All that to say, i'm for increased funding to Ukraine, without
Never, ever, ever have I argued Ukraine shouldn't adopt them because they're too technical or Ukrainians couldn't figure them out. You have to be the biggest dipshit to think that. I just never saw them as the game changer that people who idolize specific pieces of equipment did
So what am I saying? That we shouldn't send Abrams? No. But that we shouldn't send them a) at the cost of more valuable equipment since the valuation for an Abrams tank is equal to a SHIT ton of other gear & b) if we don't have enough money on the table to send tons of them.
overly simplistic but: not getting hit. There will always be a bigger warhead, a stealthier enemy, or a wise gunner aiming for a weak spot. No matter how strong your tank's armor, a $50 AT mine made in 1971 stored in the most abysmal conditions will track every tank in exiatence
Sure better armor will stop some hits or stop them from being fatal. Better optics will give better situational awareness & targeting data. Better ammo stowage will decrease the risk of Jack in the Boxing the turret. But ultimately a tanks primary defense is, & I know this seems
Russian assaults begin getting hit, that as BMPs or BTRs get killed, so long as the tank is still there the assault continues. When the tank is knocked out the infantry begins to crumble. The actual tank used is relatively unimportant. It's the tank's existence that matters.
fire artillery to snipe outposts/LP-OPs/MG nests, fists to break holes for infantry assaults, or hell fists to break holes *in* infantry assaults. Ukraine (and Russia) have made very good use of tanks as the center of gravity around which an assault forms. You can even watch as
T-62, & even modernized T-55s (ala the Slovenian M-55S), buying them & their ammo & shipping them to Ukraine. Tank on tank engagements are EXTREMELY rare in Ukraine (& likely just modern war in general). Tanks function far more effectively as mobile pillboxes, short range direct
the continent. But failing that, if we can't provide Chally/Abrams in large quantities(Chally is a non starter, they need what they have, Abrams less so, but still insanely expensive) we need to be scraping the bottom of the barrel & the end of the earth for every available T-72,
I've been arguing all along: Ukraine needs tanks- it doesn't matter what kind they are. More is better. I still argue that adding 30 Challengers or Abrams is a poor investment. The Leopard makes way more sense as well over 100 were able to be sent and repair capability exist on
more EW and C-UAS is an acknowledgement that armor provided is just as vulnerable as the Soviet inheritance that Ukraine has & for it to have an extended lifetime where they actually get the value of it's greater capability solutions need to be found or else we're back to what
When provided in bulk alongside closer range high tech unguided systems like NLAW or even Carl Gustav these systems rapidly depleted Russian armor at a rate that otherwise would not have been possible by such a mobile force. The US and allies agreeing that Ukraine needs
Weapon is a solution by itself. If a weapon offers a significant advantage than to take advantage of that advantage you need them in bulk. The javelin is an incredibly capable at weapon but if provided in small numbers it would have done nothing to change the game. Instead
Then they can take advantage of their higher quality and capabilities when used as part of a large scale force. But taken individually they don't enhance a commander's option when you just have one or two. They just add logistical complexity. As we've touched upon before, no one
