djox ::UK no longer able to manufacture large-calibre gun barrels, BAE Systems admits
Citat:The Challenger 2 MBT is armed with a 120mm L30 rifled tank gun which was made at ROF Nottingham which closed some years ago.
The UK may need to cannibalise stored Challenger tanks and AS90 howitzers to source replacement barrels for platforms sent to Ukraine as no manufacturing capability currently exists.

Da ne ulazimo sad u geopoliticka pozicioniranja, a ni u "perspektivnost" ozljebljenih tenkovskih topova ali nevjerovatno je da jedna UK odustaje od ovakvih segmenata proizvodnje + municije. Odnosno da je relativno odavno odustala.

Nisam 100% siguran , ali mislim da su ovo Challangeri 2 od "Royal Skots" puka koji je ucestvovao i u misiji u Bosni 1997 i u zaljevskom ratu 2003 , i mislim da je prva verzija iz 1991 a ne druga iz 1994.

Citat:Ukrainian air assault forces finally have deployed their most powerful unit.
82nd Air Assault Brigade with Marder and Stryker IFVs and Challenger 2 tanks rolled into action around Robotyne, in southern Ukraine’s Zaporizhzhia Oblast in the last few days.
The 82nd Brigade and its sister air-assault unit, the 46th Brigade, were some of the last major units that the Ukrainian general staff was holding in reserve.
