Ukraine has concluded a contract with the EU country for the supply of components for the T-72 tanks

The press service of the Ukrainian concern Ukroboronprom reports that Spetstekheksport has concluded a contract with one of the European state companies for the supply of spare parts and other components tanks T-72. The contract will be implemented until 2019. However, there is no official data which European country needed components of Ukrainian production for T-72 tanks.

From the press service of Ukroboronprom:

The tender was held in accordance with the European Directive Defense Directive 2009 / 81 / EC. The conditions for participation in this tender were similar to those required from participants in public tenders in the Ukrainian Prozorro system. After Ukraine joined the GPA agreement, Spetstechnoexport became the first Ukrainian company that won the tender according to the mentioned rules.

It is noted that in the EU countries, previously included in the socialist camp, at the moment there is a need for components for Soviet-style armored vehicles. The head of Spetstekhnoexport, Pavel Barbul, notes that Ukraine has an industrial link that can meet the needs of European partners in spare parts for armored vehicles and equipment aviation.

Prior to the publication of the official report on the conclusion of the contract by “Spetstechnoexport”, it was stated that Poland needed components.

Modernized Polish tank based on T-72

The Polish Ministry of Defense reported that it intends to modernize the T-72 tanks in service, bringing them to "NATO standards."

Cool business ...

Particularly pleased with the phrase: "Ukraine has an industrial link that can satisfy the needs of European partners for spare parts for armored vehicles and aviation equipment" - is it like to remove and sell from your own, but to buy from Russia again through the fourth countries or China?

I think these are not resellers. The Czechs have all the documentation for the T-72 and more than once they have already modernized these machines in different countries.

But what about decommunization? The T-72 is Soviet Legacy!

The main NATO standard is money in the right wallet. Ukrainians are not drawn to it. And the T-72 cannot be converted into a NATO standard either with a file or with a rasp.

The meaning of your phrase is incomprehensible, what does the purse have to do with it? Or do you think dill will transfer money and get nothing for them? In my opinion, the situation is as follows - it is known that the Russian-Ukrainian defense industry does not have the technologies and components that NATO countries have access to. Now Ukraine will have access to such technologies, it can also be communication systems in real time - CIUSs, it can be electric drives for the LMS (which provides higher speed and accuracy of aiming), it can be DUBNs and Panoramic sights, laser illumination sensors, APU. Which in general can significantly increase the combat qualities of dill tanks and give them a significant advantage over the DNR / LNR armored formations and even the Russian T-72B3. If we add to this the supply of radars, large-caliber rifles, UAVs and ATGM Javelins that were not trimmed down in the technical characteristics, as before, then dill can put up an army that is quite modern and equipped with battle experienced and motivated fighters. And I think it's worth discussing.

usually everything is incomprehensible to you !!!
here is the explanation !!!

In 2014, the UK Department of Defense spent about £ 6 billion on faulty equipment, unusable equipment, and outdated software. However, the perpetrators of these expenses will not be punished - the Ministry of Defense claims that they do not spend, but, on the contrary, save taxpayer money

In 2014, the German publication Deutsche Welle reported with reference to the information of the DPA agency that companies from Germany were involved in a corruption scandal in Greece related to arms purchases. During the interrogation, the local businessman Dimitris Papahristou, who worked for the German company Krauss-Maffei Wegmann (KMW), named the prosecutor’s name six businessmen from three German companies who bribed Greek officials or knew about the corruption scam.

In 2012, the German newspaper Süddeutsche Zeitung published on its website information according to which 13 Austrian politicians and officials may have received kickbacks worth up to 70 million euros during the sale of 15 Eurofighter fighters to Austria. It is worth noting that the fighters themselves are one of the worst in terms of price and quality.

On January 1, 2014, the Indian government was forced to terminate the deal at the price of $ 753 million for the supply of 12 helicopters with the Italian corporation Finmeccanica. The amount of the agreement was 753 million dollars. Luxury helicopters were designed to transport VIP-persons, including the President and Prime Minister of India. However, it turned out that AgustaWestland (an English-Italian division of Finmeccanica) participating in the project paid bribes to high-ranking officials to receive the contract - the total amount of kickbacks was $ 67,6 million.

[drunkram]

It’s just that the Czechs, for example, have brains and they appreciate what they have, it’s at least silly to send new and quite suitable tanks for scrapping.

[Lord of the Sith]

Shalom! I also thought at first, like you, that these parts are for Ukrainian technology. But it turned out not, Ukraine will buy spare parts for tanks of Eastern European countries that are members of the EU.

[Shurik70]

Not at all. Dismantled tanks in Ukraine, their parts sold abroad.
European country? Well, there were some T-72s. Or maybe an intermediary. Such parts are many where needed.

To begin with, do you have a LIST of requested parts? I think no. Further, in the USSR, the entire USSR took part in the construction of tanks. And on the territory of the Ukrainian SSR a lot of parts, components and assemblies for the T-72 tank were produced. A lot, from small to large and especially important. For example, rangefinder sights. Since there were military districts on the territory of the same Ukrainian SSR and neighboring BSSR, and beyond the nearest border were groups of troops and ATS countries, which were armed with T-72 tanks, which meant there were tank repair enterprises. The Ukrainian SSR had Kiev and Lvov tank repair plants under T-72. So, you don’t have to be surprised at anything, except that some kind of Soviet production still remained in Ukraine

[master2]

Ukraine does not have the T-72 in service; these are purely Russian tanks. Ukrainian T-64 tanks and there are all opportunities for the production of tanks that they successfully do

Since we naturally will not sell them, there is such a cycle.

[rotmistr60]

Honestly, I do not envy this European country. Firstly, whether the contract will be fulfilled by the Ukrainian side (there is a sin behind them to throw partners). Secondly, there are doubts about the quality of spare parts (Soviet stocks have run out) that will be manufactured. But this is their headache.

[Jedi]

Perhaps this is precisely why they did not divulge who thought of doing business with dill. And then you will immediately receive the label "Suckers."

I suspect that Russian companies are also selling through E.S .. Good afternoon, Maxim

It is possible, but I would not compare the reliability of suppliers in Russia and Ukraine. The comparison is clearly not in favor of the latter.

They probably like it when they write about them in the newspapers, and for whatever reason they do not care, the main thing is that they would mention Ukraine.

Engines for tanks and so shoved through Moldova.

So it’s PT-72U - a “city tank” in Polish, regarding optics ...

In the context of urban combat, the issue of timely detection of threats is particularly acute. For this, the PT-72U tank is equipped with the ODF Optronics ODR-HV surveillance system. It consists of eight cameras with a field of view width 55 °, located on different parts of the tower. Thus, all of them provide circular observation, and the cameras' viewing areas partially overlap with each other. The video signal from the cameras is transmitted to the monitor installed on the workplace of the tank commander. On the roof of the tower, between the hatches of the commander and the gunner is a block of the ODR PTZ surveillance system. The unit can rotate in any direction and tilt in a vertical plane ranging from -10 ° to + 70 ° from the horizontal. Optics unit ODR PTZ provides 26-fold increase. The ODF Optronics ODR-HV system provides continuous monitoring of the environment and, if necessary, can be used to aim a machine gun turret.

Since the mid-90s, Ukraine has sold about 700 T-72 units and BTS engineering vehicles (based on the T-72). Some of them have been modernized. It must be assumed that Nenki has some production capacities and stocks of components. Poland, however, wants to moderate its T-72s to the RT-91 version, which they did in the 90s at home. Obviously, they turned to Ukraine with a proposal to buy some components, since the latter still had about 400 T-72 units in storage. That's just the condition of these tanks and production facilities (Lviv plant) is unknown. Although, I think that they can still disassemble the tank for spare parts))

[Ratmir_Ryazan]

It’s strange. But why would anyone in Europe have T-72 tanks, and what can Ukraine supply from components ?!
