#Whatwerethedesignersthinking when they put the radars for Trophy APS on the front, on top of the main armor. Now, I love #Leopard2, IMO it is the best tank in service today. #Germans did nothing wrong, except these radars. #εpsilon Image
The frontal 60 degree arc is said to be most suceptible for enemy hits and the #Germans placed the critical radars on the front armor. Makes no sense at all. Look at #Americans on their #M1Abrams. The radar is off to the sides. It is still exposed though. Image
The #Israeli #Merkava has its #Trophy pointed more outwards but again away from the primary frontal protection. Its the #Germans who have a pretty bad design for what is a safety critical system in combat and will only gain importance. Image
