Poland is going to transfer PT-91 tanks to Ukraine in addition to Leopard 2

Besides tanks German-made Leopard, the Polish authorities are ready to transfer to Ukraine and Polish-made PT-91 tanks in the amount of 60 pieces. This was stated by Prime Minister of Poland Mateusz Morawiecki.

According to the head of the Polish government, the supply of modern tanks is very important for Ukraine. After all, Russia, Morawiecki noted, may have up to 15 tanks at its disposal, and Ukraine should be able to counter them with a large number of its own armored vehicles.



Morawiecki also recalled that Poland was the first country to supply 250 tanks to Ukraine. Now Warsaw is preparing to transfer 14 Leopard 2 tanks and 60 upgraded PT-91 tanks.

The Polish prime minister noted the need for "perseverance and openness" of the West in terms of supporting Ukraine. Otherwise, Kyiv may lose in this conflict. Therefore, Warsaw is not only engaged in the transfer of its weapons, but also constantly puts pressure on other countries so that they also supply military equipment to Ukraine.

Recall that the PT-91 Twardy is a Polish main battle tank, which was based on the license of the Soviet T-72M1 tank. Serial production of the RT-91 began in 1995 and continued until 2002. During this time, 232 tanks were produced. While the tanks continue to be in service with the Polish Army, but given the amount transferred to Ukraine, Warsaw does not greatly value these combat vehicles. Apparently, the Polish authorities are counting on the Abrams tanks, which have already been ordered for the Polish army in the United States.

    I think before the end of the year the Poles will give all Leo and all RT. Given their agreement on the supply of Abrams and K-2, they plan to have only two models of tanks. One division on Abrams and 4 on K-2.

        Yes, that's exactly what they plan to do. The complete disposal of Russian equipment should be, as you write, Abrams / K-2 tanks and Borsuk / K-21 armored personnel carriers. Everything they have will go to Ukraine, T-72, PT-92, BMP-1, Mig29 and all the rest

      No. Under the contract, by the end of 23, they will have 2 K2 battalions and a training center. Also, 2 battalions should bring Abrams.

      In total, they will "free themselves" - 100-120 tanks. That's just the first 2 battalions are already being allocated. Another 2 battalions will be allocated in the summer-autumn. Further, only a temporary reduction in our own fleet (that is, if the situation is urgently required).

      Warsaw's interest in the rearmament of its own army and the growth of influence within the EU and outside it.

      No need to ascribe to the Poles a petty desire to return Lviv. Their ambitions are much wider.
      There is the Russian world, but there is also the Polish world.

      The Poles already have a special legal status in Ukraine. And they regard the capture of any settlement by our troops as aggression against them personally.

      In general, there is a lot in common between the worldview of Poles and Russians.
      Those. on the one hand, Ukraine has been a separate country for several decades, and on the other hand, what the hell? This is generally historically our land!

      Well, imagine if the national republics of the Russian Federation fall off and the Russians become a mono-ethnic state? And so for a hundred years they will chew among themselves historical injustice, missed opportunities, mistakes ...

      Twardy is an export car, already without any special secrets.


      own tank production


      Error. They realized that:
      a) Tvardy is still yesterday. Even if, following the example of Chekhov, shove Perkins into it for 1200 forces and make it long-legged, then the tank will not become the last generation from this.
      b) Poland simply does not have the opportunity to create a new platform, even taking into account the maximum cooperation with the EU and the USA.
      c) It won't pay off. Why another tank on the market, where everything is divided? Especially the Polish tank. They miraculously managed to sell Tward only to Malaysia. And they drove to all possible exhibitions for 8 years.

      However, own production remains - 820 K2PL, on assembly lines delivered from Korea. Also, the final localization will be higher than 75%. Therefore, their conditional plant Bumar - not only will not close, but on the contrary will be modernized, recruit more people, open new workshops and will be loaded with work until the 30s.

    And where are they, and in addition to the Polish, Czech, Slovak ... if Kyiv requires more tanks? They didn’t prick Poland at one time with a dose of haloperidol, and the result is on the face - schizophrenia, manic state, delusional disorders. And not only in Poland. CNN on a blue eye gave out the numbers of destroyed tanks in the conflict:
    - Russia has lost more than 600;
    - Ukraine, attention 450,
    which also speaks of the complete mental breakdown of the American media.

    They were late. Yes, and the gut is thin. A manic stubbornness is unlikely to save them.

    If it goes at such a pace, America's budget for the war will end not in the summer, but in the spring. And chickens are counted in the fall, as they say.

    Yes, there is nothing to see here. Do not pull Russia to these undersized people.

      Are you kidding? You could at least google something about GDP, the level of technological development, military-industrial potential. Or have you already been blocked?

    Baton, of course, is a strong argument, only the trees of the outskirts, but also the heads of the surviving population will "glow" in the dark.


    And Ukraine is close to our own regions. Everyone somehow forgot about Chernobyl. I write as a resident of the Rostov region

    it was Poland that became the first country to supply 250 tanks to Ukraine
    And where are they, and in addition to the Polish, Czech, Slovak ... if Kyiv requires more tanks? They didn’t prick Poland at one time with a dose of haloperidol, and the result is on the face - schizophrenia, manic state, delusional disorders. And not only in Poland. CNN on a blue eye gave out the numbers of destroyed tanks in the conflict:
    - Russia has lost more than 600;
    - Ukraine, attention 450,
    which also speaks of the complete mental breakdown of the American media.


    By the way, good question. Recently, everywhere in the TG channels they published statistics on the supply of weapons to Ukraine, incl. and tanks from foreign countries. There the bill was in the hundreds. Now Ukraine again requires (does not ask, which would be logical) tanks and more modern ones. So where did the hundreds of tanks that have already been delivered, plus their own, disappeared?

      It is said that they keep the best equipment in reserve and are waiting for new deliveries, as well as the best units. The worst equipment and mobilized militia go to the front. The best units are saved for a possible offensive.

    I see Google didn't help you much. Because it's not too much to think about. Well, since Google replaces your mind, then google about the structure of GDP (and not anything), resources. You may realize that simple arithmetic alone is not enough here. You yourself seem to know little about the military-industrial potential. All of Europe taken together does not produce as many weapons and ammunition as Russia alone produces, not to mention that it does not have as many weapons (Europe).
    Moreover, since initially the conversation was only about Poland, then who is joking here? Do you really believe that Poland is able to compete with Russia? Even the GDP in your understanding cannot be stuck here.
