According to him, the British refuse to supply new vehicles to replace damaged ones, since they have already transferred 14 units to the Armed Forces of Ukraine and, perhaps, they themselves need such equipment.
Hinkle added that the removal of Western weapons by Russian gunners was “very bad marketing” not only for British tanks, but also for German Leopards and other NATO military equipment.
“The destruction of these armored vehicles is excellent advertising for Russian weapons,” he concluded.
Recall that the soldiers of the Russian Armed Forces have already managed to destroy at least two Challenger 2 tanks in the Zaporozhye region. As the leader of the “We stand together with Russia” movement, Vladimir Rogov, clarified, one of the vehicles was hit with a single shot by a Kornet anti-tank missile system.
Meanwhile, British Chief of Staff Patrick Sanders said he experienced strong emotions upon learning of the destruction of British equipment in the special operations zone.
