To contain the "probable aggressor": Poland will deploy ATGM FGM-148F Javelin in the east of the country

26

Anti-tank missile systems FGM-148F Javelin, received by the Polish army, will be deployed in the east of the country. The corresponding decision was taken by the Ministry of National Defense of the republic, said the head of the Polish military department Mariusz Blaszczak.

The decision to place American anti-tank systems in the east of the country is connected, first of all, with the containment of the "probable aggressor", the Polish Ministry of Defense said. ATGM FGM-148F Javelin will use the troops of the territorial defense stationed on the "eastern flank of the defense."



According to the minister, demonstration exercises on the use of Javelin anti-tank systems by the territorial defense forces were held at the Kiev training ground near Torun and were recognized as successful.

Poland's purchase of American ATGMs became known last spring, when Warsaw approached Washington with a request for the supply of 180 Javelin anti-tank guided missiles and 79 launchers. In addition, Poland requested the supply of basic training simulators (BST), missile simulations (Missile Simulation Rounds), battery cooling units (BCU), tools, modified maintenance accessories. The agreement also includes training for ATGM operators, technical support, delivery of complexes, etc.

The delivery of the complexes should take place before the end of this year. The Pentagon has already said that this delivery is in the interests of the foreign policy and national security of the United States and will increase the level of combat capability of a NATO partner in Eastern Europe.

        180 javelins, I believe they calculated that it was 180 destroyed tanks ... But what to do when the 181st tank enters Warsaw, they don't know yet.

      And in the east Belarus and Ukraine, in the north Kaliningrad. So Belarus is the "probable aggressor"? Or will Russia move tanks to Poland through Belarus and Ukraine? In my opinion, at one time, they clearly explained to the West that in the event of a military conflict, a missile strike would be launched against decision-making centers (including Warsaw). Will Javelin's help after that?
      Listen to Eastern Europe and wonder. All not only puffing "restrain" Russia, but also dig trenches, build dugouts ready to defend "democracy" with their chest, but ... behind the back of the United States.

What is there in Europe, in the galaxy! Your wiped atoms and petushary from the National Battalions have already left for you. Before it's too late, correct the comment and repent! Otherwise, it’s good!

          Why suddenly?
          Global Firepower (GFP) has published a ranking of the strongest armies in Europe for 2020
          At the end of 2020, the top 10 most powerful armies in Europe are as follows: Russia is in first place with an indicator of 0,0796. France and Great Britain are on the second and third lines with ratings of 0.1681 and 0.1997. Turkey ranks fourth. The army of this country scored 0.2118. Italy holds the fifth place with a score of 0,2139. Germany is in sixth place with a rating of 0,2529. The list is closed by Spain with 0,3274, Poland with 0,4202, Ukraine with 0,4413 and Switzerland with 0,5027.

              In fact, YES, but people made at least some effort. Or to say that the Polish army is the third in Europe, what to declare the Armed Forces of Ukraine the strongest on the planet

      The power of the Polish army had already shown itself in all its glory in 1939 ... But then it was also one of the strongest armies in Europe ...

      Did the missiles expect that they would not have time to fire the third shot? Or does Pan ataman have a dumb penny?

      It is not permissible for the occupied to have a strong army, otherwise they will start thinking with their own heads.
