Since the summer of 2023, Leopard 2A6 tanks have been officially introduced into the ranks of the Ukrainian Armed Forces, where they are used in combat operations in the east and northeast of the country. These vehicles are often subject to special modifications (installation of mesh and shields against drones and shaped-charge ammunition) resulting from experiences on the modern battlefield.
