Some say that tanks are obsolete in modern battlefield. One example is a recent total destruction of Leopard tanks in Ukraine by Russian Lancet drones. On the other hand, it may be just because Leopards were not prepared for such a kind of weapon, and tank designs will adapt for the use of drones. I hope tanks will survive of course :) What do you think?

Western procurement has to factor in the profit motive for armaments production

Even for an esthetics, Soviet solutions, where only necessary parts are present, looks much more elegant, at least for me.
