A German-made Leopard 2A6 main battle tank, belonging to the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU), was captured by Russian troops and transported to the base of a Guards Airborne Regiment in the Kursk region after being discovered in the Daryino area.

According to reports, the armored vehicle was hit back in the winter by an FPV drone operator from Russia’s Airborne Troops based in Tula. The impact damaged the tank’s lateral transmission systems, leaving the gearboxes locked.

To evacuate the vehicle, Russian soldiers had to remove the tank’s tracks and use rollers during the transportation process. Despite the partial damage, the Leopard 2A6 was found with most of its ammunition intact and no critical structural damage.

The Leopard 2A6 is one of the most modern tanks deployed in the conflict, and its capture represents yet another symbolic setback for Ukrainian forces.
