Forbes: The Russian Armed Forces knocked out rare Swedish tanks of the Armed Forces of Ukraine

The Ukrainian military was left without two combat vehicles, considered the best of those that the Ukrainian Armed Forces have at their disposal.

We are talking about rare Strv 122 tanks, which are the Swedish version of the famous Leopard from Germany.

Relevant information appeared in foreign media.

The combat vehicles were disabled as a result of the actions of representatives of the Russian Armed Forces.

Thus, military personnel from the Russian Federation knocked out tanks, carrying out an attack using drones.

The Ukrainian 21st Mechanized Division suddenly lost a fifth of its best Swedish tanks and cannot get replacements. – MIA quotes a translated excerpt from an article published in the American edition of Forbes.

The material emphasizes: it will be difficult for the Ukrainian side to repair the cars. It is possible that the tanks will have to be sent abroad for repairs.

Progress of the Ukrainian Armed Forces counter-offensive

The Ukrainian army continues the counter-offensive, which began in the first days of summer 2023.

However, Kyiv is not achieving success, despite the presence of weapons supplied by the West.

Experts emphasize that the Russian Armed Forces managed to create a powerful line of defense, which is why the Ukrainian side cannot achieve results and faces huge losses.
