The hull ammo storage becomes a problem when the Leopard 2 is used in asymmetric/urban combat operations people seem to forget the fact, that the hull ammo stowage is located behind thick armor. That giant ammo stowage is a huge down side for the LEO-2.Īll else being equal these tanks were envisioned to be fighting hull down then retreating from firing position to firing position so the hull ammo stowage might not have been a practical issue for the war which the tank was designed to fight. There is also no escape hatch for the driver as used previously on the M60 (and still currently featured in various other tanks). No spall liners, hydraulics that are an explosive hazards and a relatively low level of armor protection at every place that is not the turret front. Yep Abrams is probably the most survivable NATO MBT even to this day.
