#6 The Puma is an infantry fighting vehicle not a tank. Nice to see the reporter put some effort into doing some research for the story. |

#4 It seems to be several issues. Targeting systems failing to stay calibrated on some, suspension issues on others, engine failures on others. In a wartime environment they most likely to do ok, especially in defense. But the list of issues is to wide to ignore and points to a shit development and procurement program for it. The Germans do make some damn fine weapons. This ain't one of them.... yet. |
