Just further confirmation of what I already reported on Russia bringing in the
T-62M/MV tanks in the battle for Ukraine. In
para 2 they provide a
more conservative list of Russian tanks lost thus far to the date of the articles release.

I'm kind've surprised that this wasn't already posted by a handful of
our regulars out here, so I've held off (Though it's in my tracking file.) long enough. I believe two things are driving this tank acquisition and modernization program for Greece. One is obvious the Ukrainian War and the next maybe not so much but, in
my opinion almost as important, Turkeys
ALTAY program getting back on track that'll swing the MBT advantage more to their side.
What I found interesting is their desire to bring the LEOPARD 1A5 up to the
LEOPARD 1A5+/A6 standard. As you might recall I threw the possibility of this for the Ukraine if they ever get those tanks from Germany (
LEOPARD 2A5.) Again, the
LEOPARD 1A5+/A6 is armed with the
120mm/L44 and would also be equipped with
modern add-on armor applications.
