On August 6, Ukrainian forces invaded Russia’s Kursk region, capturing hundreds of miles of territory, but Ukraine is paying for the invasion by surrendering cities in the east and destroying its most precious equipment.

As Forbes analyst David Ax writes, the 21st Mechanized Brigade is taking part in the offensive in the Kursk region, which has the most advanced and best Western tanks in its arsenal – Strv 122/Leopard 2A6. These two types differ mainly in the length of the main guns. And, according to videos from social networks, one of these tanks was shot down by a drone or hit a mine during a battle near the village of Vesyoloye.

The analyst emphasizes that each Strv 122 and Leopard 2A6 is precious, as Ukraine received only 10 Strv 122 from Sweden and 21 Leopard 2A6 from Germany and Portugal, all in 2023. By the spring, about 20 of these tanks remained, all of them belonged to the 21st Mechanized Brigade, and it is unlikely to expect new deliveries: “While the Ukrainian army’s other Leopard 2 brigades – the 33rd and 155th Mechanized Brigades – operate older and more numerous Leopard 2A4 models and have received several batches of the new tanks to replace battlefield losses, the 21st Mechanized Brigade, with its newer tank models, is unlikely to receive any new vehicles.”

As Ax notes, the Swedish and German armies are struggling to maintain their own tank brigades; neither plans to part with their best tanks any more.

At the same time, the analyst notes, there is evidence that the 21st Mechanized Brigade has already lost at least one tank in the Kursk region, which burned after being hit by an explosive FPV drone.

“That Ukrainian commanders are willing to risk their last Strv 122s and Leopard 2A6s in Kursk speaks to the importance they attach to the Ukrainian invasion of the region. The invasion effort is costing the Ukrainians vulnerable cities and vital transport assets. For now, that is a price they are willing to pay,” the analyst concludes.
