British Challenger 2 tanks have been spotted on the Ukrainian front line for the first time - as Russian helicopter attacks reportedly force Kyiv to pause their counter-offensive after at least 20 Western tanks and IFVs were destroyed. 

A squadron of 14 Challenger 2 tanks, which have a 120mm rifled gun and a 7.62mm machine gun, were gifted by Britain earlier this year as the West continue to show their unwavering support to Ukraine in their fight against Vladimir Putin's invasion. 

The £5m Challenger 2 is designed to attack other tanks and have far greater ranges and accuracy than the Kremlin's equivalent.

  2. use of depleted uranium should be a war crime. It will poison the country side, where people will have to live. It will slowly kill the land.

  3. Just FYI, 20+ vehicles lost is nothing. Let’s not make a big deal out of it.

  5. Well, to understand anything and the reasons for it, look always at the outcome

    If you want to understand a system or a war, look at what it achieves

    Putin.. doubled his wealth
    The warmongers in the US.. they are doing fine

    Everyone else.. well.. if you follow such "leaders" (read_ demons), you will receive demonic outcomes, ie. death, despair, misery

    Rid yourself of these demonic "leaders" and you shall be free
