Leopard 1 is a second generation main battle tank that was designed and produced in West Germany. Leopard 1 has a lot of disadvantages and can be used to protect the border with Belarus, where the threat of attack is currently minimal. Military-political observer of the Information Resistance group Alexander Kovalenko spoke about this on the FREEDOM TV channel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cLeopard 1 are \u201ccardboard\u201d tanks, useless armor that can be penetrated right through by an RPG-7 hand-held anti-tank grenade launcher, which can be penetrated even by a 30 mm automatic cannon. I don\u2019t understand at all the principle of sending us these tanks, if in a number of indicators they are even worse than the T-62 and even the T-54 and T-55 are a serious threat for them. These tanks can be considered to cover the Northern bridgehead – this is the border with Belarus. But in general, we can now state that the threat from the territory of Belarus is minimal,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The expert noted that the only advantage of this tank is the 105-caliber cannon, but in modern warfare this advantage does not play a significant role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cThe only advantage of the Leopard 1 is their gun, their barrel. A good 105 mm caliber rifled barrel. For tanks, this is a sniper gun, which is a threat to modern T-72 and T-80 tanks and Russian armored personnel carriers (APCs), especially when entering vulnerable areas. But in modern warfare, a tank battle, a tank duel, is a rarity. And in most cases, tanks become victims as a result of an explosion on an anti-tank mine and if they fall victim to kamikaze drones or anti-tank missile systems. And all these means are a serious threat to Leopard 1,\u201d he explained.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
