A Western defence source confirmed to the BBC the footage shows a Challenger 2 tank and that all crew survived.

Tank did it's job, then.

The fact that Ukraine doesn't lose experienced tank crews when they lose a tank is a huge strategic advantage. Not to mention that stories about survivability will encourage other crews to push the offensive even harder.

As long as crews keep living, we will keep sending more tanks

Fuck Russia and its clown LeADERShIp... They fucked around, it is time for Russia to find out

Steel not flesh; front-line equipment did its job and, if the crew survived, did its job well.
