Typically, German iron is high performance and high maintenance.
I can understand why they might not want their tanks operating without their technicians.
Excellent article:

Panzers or Tigers? They can’t send them because they need diesel from Russia. Germany is the worst gang of perpetual losers. They’re the Washington Generals of world domination.
Que Ozzy and RR. We're going off the rails on a crazy train!
GM several years ago designed a tank for export Called the Stingray. Restart the production line and sell the Jkes,.or.the Russians, as many as they want to buy.
Pay no attention to the fact that Ukraine is dependent upon other nations to supply them with weapons and ammo. Pay no attention to the fact that nations can't agree to arm them as they should. Because none of that matters they have cheerleaders around the globe, so they must be the winners. How could a nation with that much verbal and visual displays of support ever possibly fail?
So, by golly by gum they will get er done, because Russia is weak, and their soldiers will turn tail to run & desert the military conflict, because even Russian citizens hate their country & her leader. In fact, any day now he will either die or be overthrown. I know this, because the cheerleaders told me so, oh by jingo.
“Germany vs. Russia, Round 3?” Probably more like, “EU vs. Russia.” Or, “NWO vs. Russia.”
The maximum upside is that the Leopards work well in Ukrainian hand and they push the Russians back before the tanks are destroyed. In that case the Germans have strengthened another troublesome west Slavic state between themselves and the Russians.
The maximum downside is that the tanks are destroyed by Russian anti-tank missiles, artillery, drones, aircraft, etc. before they have any significant effect. In that case the German army is rendered completely questionable as an effective force and required a complete rearmament and reorganization.
A pretty paltry upside and an appalling downside.
Sending Leopards is not worth the risk.
Good
Soros/Biden will let ukes die until the last US taxpayer dollar is spent.
it’s time for a ceasefire.
Will Z high heels beggar start paying us back?
