I’d kind of assume that Russia has already had access to Leopard 2s via one route or another – they’re widely-available, though as the article states, there might be something specific to this configuration that might be new.
Well, it was bound to happen at some point.
Many features probably have been investigated by Russia already anyway, since Turkey wrecked a bunch of their Leos in Syria a couple of years ago. But of course, having an intact one gives a lot more options.
Well, smoking accidents can happen everywhere.
Also, funny to see in the article that
hinterland
made it into English as well.
