List of destroyed leopard 2s of the AFU from the beginning of the offensive to now. Image
the first Leopard 2 destroyed was a leopard 2A4 that was hit by artillery at the beginning of the offensive in a raid near Novopokrovka, subsequently it was seen that the crew (or a part of it) managed to get out of the vehicle alive.

the second leopard 2A4 with documented loss was destroyed by a Lancet in the South of Mala Tokmachka, it seems that the drone hit the ammunition of the hull, which resulted in the turret being thrown away, fortunately the vehicle seemed to be abandoned.

I could not find much information about the second destroyed leopard 2A6 that was recorded, all we know is that it probably caught fire after hitting another vehicle and soon after was abandoned and destroyed by the Russians.
the last leopard on the list was destroyed on 07/27/2023 according to sources it was near robotyne, the vehicle was abandoned after running over an anti-tank mine and subsequently destroyed.
