Leopard 2 crew of the Armed Forces of Ukraine

Combat units of the Armed Forces of Ukraine operate different types of tanks. Until recently, most of them were tanks of Soviet design (T-64, T-72, T-80 and their modifications). Starting in 2023, Western-made combat vehicles began to enter the tank forces of Ukraine. One of these most modern models are Leopard 2 tanks of various modifications. The crew of this tank has four men – tank commander, driver, gunner and loader. Mechanics-drivers note the excellent maneuverability and speed of the Leopard 2 tanks, and the gunners – very good optics that allow you to see targets at a distance of 4-5 kilometers. Much depends on the level of training of crews, their coherence and ability to act as a single mechanism, so tankers are constantly improving their skills, undergoing training and analyzing the acquired combat experience.
