    1. That Article is missing critical informations and has wrong informations. (that isn’t the fault of euromaidenpress, but the fault of the original german text that was translated and specially the military attaché that was talking)

      It should be mentioned that both PZH2000 and Leopard are pushed way beyond what they are made for.
      The Ukraine pushes the PZH2000 as an example to over 250% of its limits (this heavy usage is obv not ukraine fault). The barrels used by the PZH2000 are made for around 4500 shots, some of these barrels saw up to 20000 Shots.

      The Leopard I having weak armor is intended since these Tank comes from a time when Mobility was rated over protection cause of HEAT Shells penetrating armor.

      The Price for an IRIS-T SLM is around 550k~€.
      Compared to an Aster-15 (1.8~m€) Aster-30 (2~m€), MIM-104 between 1-6m$ depending on the version.
      The IRIS-T is one of the cheapest and most efficient air to air/ground to air missiles you can get.
