but that wont work for 2 reasons:
1. Ukrainian army now lacks skilled manpower to operate these mostly foreign tanks (talk less of the logistics of maintaining and using them effectively on the war front)..
2 Suicide munitions like Lancets, Shahed 136s, Zala drones etc AND high tech ATGMs will destroy so many of these tanks...and obv after this batch of tanks, NATO wont be able probably to supply high tech tanks for at least a year or so., and we havent even gotten to the lack of military preparedness all these supplies can cause for NATO IF a new conflict comes up..remember, China's military is well armed, well supported, well funded, and well rested, with lots of ammo.
THis will probably prevent NATO from fighting anther stupid imperialist war in the near future.
MIND YOU, Russia hasnt even fired any cheap Iranian precision ballistic missiles...Ukraine gonna die a good death this time....as NATO ups the toys for Ukraine, Russia will probably up the toys it uses too...Russian humanity until Ukraine shows insanity.
boom, and Ukraine lacks that...Ukrainian supply lines are obviously depleted and dysfunctional...wait for Bakhmut to be encircled..obviously Ukraine's military wil be way more depressed about losing Bakhmut than losing Soledar, which its apparently still denying? LOOOL
It will take Ukrainian "tankers" several weeks of training to master the Leopards, which has already started in Poland according to reports. So it might be that Scholz is using disinformation to placate the right-wing elements in Germany and will approve the transfer soon. Let's hope so. And USA will not provide the Abrams. While the Abrams is unquestionably the best tank on earth? , it is also extremely complex. Expensive to operate, and goes through fuel at a rate of 3 gallons, per mile. It requires a sizeable logistics commitment. Not to mention many components, i.e the armour like U.K. challenger tanks , are classified.
