YPG attack on a Turkish M60 (5-2-2018)

One of my blog's readers (:yomismo_ ) sent me this video showing a YPG attack on a Turkish M60 Patton. The vehicle is in a static position providing overwatch, and is probably hit by a Konkurs or Fagot AT missile. The attack was filmed in Buka, Barbul district.

M60T and Otokar Cobra under attack in Syria

Islamic State has published a video with another attack to a Turkish tank. As in previous occasions, it took place in the al-Bab area. The images show the launching of a 9K111 Fagot AT missile and how it hits the front armour of a M60T tank. The Lepard 2 next to it reverses and takes cover behind the turn.

Then an Otokar Cobra vehicle is sent. It is also hit by an AT missile. According to the information available, the M60T crew did not suffer injuries. Two passengers in the Cobra were injured. In this link the video can be seen.

Two Leopard 2 tanks attacked by AT missiles in Syria

ISIS has published another attack on Turkish Leopard 2 tanks. Both vehicles are in a position when hit by AT missiles. The sequence is shown below. The second vehicle comes worst as the ammunition explodes and causes a fire.

 

Leopard 2s have not been operating for long, but 3 have already hit by missiles. It is almost as if they were expected and ambushes were prepared.
