Could be that maintenance and general use of western (German) equipment is more expensive, particularly for people used to Russian stuff.
Actually I heard that the Romanian army, which recieved a batch of some dozens of Gepard SPAAGs, had such a hard time and spent so much money running these that they refused a subsequent offer for a batch of Leopard2A4.
Has anyone better info on this?
