Ukrainian Armed Forces showcase British Challenger 2 tank in exercise

A short video has surfaced showing the British Challenger 2 main battle tank during an exercise. We've seen similar footage before, and now we're waiting for the fighting vehicle to appear on the frontline.

Here's What We Know

The video, which lasts less than 30 seconds, shows the Challenger 2 tank driving along a dirt road. A number of soldiers are also caught in the footage. The location of the video was not specified.

Two months ago, the UK announced the transfer of 14 Challenger 2 tanks to Ukraine. The combat vehicles were delivered together with depleted uranium sub-caliber ammunition. The number of ammunition is not specified.

Along with the tanks, Ukraine also received 155 mm AS-90 self-propelled howitzers from the UK. The Ukrainian Armed Forces recently showed the British artillery unit in action at the front for the first time.
