somthing i have just noticed is how good challengers suspension is . Seeing all the T80's and T72's in ukraine bobbing back and forth is such contrast to this thing gliding across the terrain at full tilt . And that leopard reversing speed was insane .
I am wondering about how Britain thinks that the 227 Challenger 2's total or the 148 they plan to upgrade and pretend it is a new tank challenger 3 is going to project any kind of power in support of NATO. We have cut the British Army (think smaller but better they said) 86,000 Army personnel after repeated reductions since the end of the cold war standing army of 152,000 when we were not really expected to stop the Warsaw pact but attempt to slow them down till the reserves and territorial Armies of all NATO members could get equipped from standing stockpiles in Europe to replace our dead. Sorry went a bit off topic there. We had a good army with barely enough numbers or adequate equipment for the threat of the time now we think that improving cyber warfare and changing our formation structure will be a good replacement for the 70,000 troop we are missing. The British army of 2022 is not able to fight a war in Europe against the likes of Russia we are geared towards the types of conflicts we have been involved in for the last 30 years. Which is typical really preparing a strategy to fight the wars of the past has always been a losing idea. Did no one do any kind of threat assessment in order to work out how our Armed forces need to be equipped and trained to combat them?? We have only had since 2014 to work it out.
@ Xilaith Ownage seems you didn't do your research. Boots on the ground is needed but high tech equipment wins wars and costs money. Look at Ukraine, their army is growing but without the equipment it cannot push back russia. Ask yourself, what is more expensive to train? a guy with a gun or pilots.
We’re a naval power, always have been. Large ground forces aren’t a threat to the UK or its oversees territories-that’s what the navy is for. We’ll always have tanks, but, just look what Ukraine can do with a handful of British and other western tech. It’s not 1940 anymore. Only the Russians think it is.
Just a thought in regards of cam and concealment especially with the desert coloured and designed jackel etc is to have a purpose made temperate camouflage jacket and waterproof hood that can be taken off the shelf. Would like to think something is being thought of.
Light vehicles aren't made to compete whit MBTs they have there own purpose in reconnaissance and raiding capabilities, if anything you can't outgun Russia land forces, so more money should be invested in unconventional methods and in the air force and navy where Britain can make up for its small manpower.

Hello, I am from Peru, yes, and I will not publish again on military channels, this should be put on the agenda of possible purchases for the Peruvian armed forces, the challenger 2 tank is the best candidate for the Peruvian Army and Peruvian armed forces, the price per unit is 5 or 7 million dollars its cost is around there, the English tank is cheap, good armor, has great technology and is considered one of the best tanks in the world hopefully Peru can buy these tanks and name one of the English Challenger 2 tanks William Guillermo Miller and Francisco Bolognesi for the Peruvian Army. Peru used British fighter-bombers in an armed conflict in combat Canberra and we also had Hawk Hunter fighter-bombers Greetings from Lima,Perú
Russia has already lost over 1,400 tanks in Ukraine . . . UK has only ~220 tanks in total and plans to upgrade only ~140 of them. The only good news is the role of tanks is questionable on the modern battlefield in a genuine peer-level conflict. [and no, combined arms don't help much . . . Javelin can destroy a tank from 2km away]
Yeah, the role of tanks is questionable... as soon as 1 side stops using them in Ukraine they will probably start winning. Wait till they see the advantages of a Toyota Tacoma. Thank you for the expert analysis.
Unless the UK is intending to do aggressive large scale conventional warfare on its own, you should perhaps include the other 13,000 tanks that NATO has

Not going to happen. The UK has made accommodating and feeding hundreds of thousands of illegal immigrants a priority. Never have our enemies been so warmly welcomed and so well cared for.
I am no way an expert but Seeing the Russian tanks being destroyed by Ukrainian missiles seems to identify the weakness of tanks in modern war fair surly we should be investing in modern technology
