Poland and Russia react to the proposal of the head of the Polish Ministry of Defense to place Abrams tanks in the Smolensk Gate

71

Russia and Poland are commenting on the statement of Polish Defense Minister Mariusz Blaszczak about "strengthening the eastern flank of NATO." According to the head of the Polish defense department, the country intends to increase its own defense potential, including through the acquisition of American tanks... Recall that earlier Poland decided to purchase Abrams tanks from the United States of America.

Talking about the prospects for this acquisition, the Polish minister allowed himself to express the following words:



There is a proposal to place Abrams tanks in the Smolensk Gate. If such a deployment takes place, then it will be carried out on the plain, which means that our infrastructure, roads and bridges will not suffer from heavy American tanks.

It should be noted that the Smolensk Gate refers to the flat terrain on the border of Poland with Russia and Belarus.

Blaszczak's statement was commented on in Poland itself. Representatives of opposition parties note that ministers from the ruling Law and Justice party "are constantly engaged in adding fuel to the fire, which they themselves kindle." The head of the Polish Ministry of Defense was also criticized by ordinary Poles for his proposal to place tanks in the Smolensk direction, pointing out that "the minister apparently wanted to please the American administration."

In Russia, experts, assessing the words of Mariusz Blaszczak, note that it is difficult to imagine what emotions the Polish authorities would have if the Russian Defense Minister allowed himself to announce the deployment of Russian T-90 or T-14 "Armata" tanks on the "Warsaw direction" ...

It is also indicated that the Smolensk direction does not give rest to the Polish authorities.

      Why ?! It seems to me that a tactical nuclear charge, 150 Kt, would be very nice to be placed in the center of Warsaw, on the pedestal of the monument, instead of Pilsudski. For half an hour to admire, but did not have time to escape.

                        I do not overestimate abrashka. Moreover, I think this choice is stupid. The car is excellent but in our theater of operations there is little that can. But 250 tanks is power. And if their goal is RB, then the force is extremely significant. Therefore, there will be no underestimation. Why all this to the Poles, I have no idea. For admiring their own significance, apparently.

      Well, I wrote about this situation, in the forehead of his RPG-7, even modern grenades cannot be taken ... most likely they were substituted by the sides. I repeat - Abrams is a self-propelled gun with a turret. The sides of the tower and the sides themselves make their way with a bang with everything possible. I recall the T-72 from the Terrible (1 assault), pierced from above into the turret and hull 7! RPG. EMNIP The commander was killed, the jet hit him (but this is not certain), the driver was concussed. The tank was patched up and he fought further.

      The frontal of the Abrams right now, in my opinion, is the strongest, due to the use of depleted uranium 235. In fact, what's the difference, either the tank flies at the speed of a projectile and or a projectile towards it according to general relativity. Therefore, the armor itself essentially reproduces the effect of ablative cutting, thereby destroying the scrap flying into it, although I find it difficult to say against the cumulative jet ... all the same, it is liquid and due to its speed (in fact, it is practically equal to the speed of propagation of the shock wave in the explosive, and there it can be up to 10 km / s) exerts tremendous pressure and, in fact, plastic deformations occur. The jet essentially pushes the metal with this pressure and how uranium works at the same time - I have not seen information in the public domain recourse

    Something no one paid attention to the fact that this hussar wants to place tanks ON THE PLAIN, so that they do not spoil bridges and roads. Rather, why he so desired it. The answer is simple. He does not intend to take them with him when he retreats. And he understands well what will happen to them in the event ... Apparently, while studying at the academies, he learned the experience of the ancient commanders who ferried their army across the river to the enemy's bank. So that their warriors do not have the temptation to shake off the massacre.
