This is the first Challenger 2 to have been destroyed by enemy fire since the tank's first deployment in 1998. The hatches are also open, suggesting the crew was able to escape. By comparison, Russia has lost over 2,082 tanks of all varieties as of 5th July 2023: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-07-05/shift-in-balance-of-arms-in-ukraine-underscored-by-fresh-data
