Tanque A2---No hubo penetración en la zona del casco. Se produjeron tres impactos, dos en la parte trasera derecha de la torreta y el restante en la parte frontal derecha de la misma. El único sector de interés (en cuanto a una posible contaminación radioactiva) es el impacto frontal. Aunque el esmaltado de la superficie está dañado, no hay señales de contaminación radioactiva más allá de lo normal en una planchuela de blindaje de uranio empobrecido. El equipo de control de contaminación radioactiva recomienda que el tanque sea derivado a los controles normales de mantenimiento una vez que el acabado de la superficie haya sido removido y repintado. Las lecturas normales de radiación para el uranio empobrecido en esa área son de entre 500 a 750 dpm. La lectura sobre la superficie afectada es aproximadamente de 530 dpm.Toda la evidencia apunta a que los daños fueron producidos por proyectiles convencionales de energía cinética. Los reportes orales indican que éstos fueron disparados por un T-72. Los otros puntos de impacto necesitarán reparación, pero no representan riesgo alguno de contaminación radioactiva.
