  I think it has a unique armour system to, with plates that can be quickly replaced when damaged.

  No joke I think only one of our challenger 2 has been destroyed in combat, Correct me if I’m wrong but it took 3 anti tank missiles and 14 Rpg rockets and was back in service after 12 hours of repair. >
  
  One blue on blue in Basra.
  Challenger 2 is always called outdated by Russians. 4th Gen tank that was upgraded in 2008 and 2014. Ironic for the guys driving 1960s and 1970s tanks into battle.
  Like The Chieftan and Mark Hertling said. It has the optics and thermals etc to be the first one to get off a shot. It's armour is more than capable of taking multiple 125mm shots and fighting on at 100% capability. The Russian armour will not be afforded the same luxury from it's 120mm.
  This assumes a well trained crew. Challenger 2 will clap Russian armour senseless.
  It's main issue will be amassed artillery and lack of air superiority.
  Oh and it has a Rifle cannon with HESH for fucking up entrenched troops from afar. Russian armour due to losses has being used as makeshift howitzers which they struggle with. The Challenger 2 has it as part of its design.
