US press: NATO tanks in Ukraine will not be the "silver bullet" that will allow Kyiv to win the war
Deliveries of American and German tanks Ukraine will not be allowed to turn the tide of the armed conflict. This is written by the American newspaper The New York Times.
As the author of the publication notes, the American command is trying to transform the armed forces of Ukraine (AFU) in order to increase Ukraine's chances of breaking through Russian defense in a number of key areas. Now the US military is going to organize training for Ukrainian tank crews and other specialists.
- emphasizes the author of the American edition.
Thus, the combined arms training of recruits of the US Army itself takes many months, if not years. But for some reason, the American command decided that Ukrainian soldiers would complete this training in a month at the most. The feasibility of such plans raises serious doubts among experts. After all, it is very difficult to train specialists in modern mobile warfare in such a short period of time.
The construction of a multi-level defense line by the RF Armed Forces in the areas of combat contact creates additional difficulties for the Ukrainian army. The publication calls them a "military dead end" of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, since the borders will have to be stormed. This, in turn, will require the coordination of the attack of tank and infantry units, with artillery support.
While it is planned that Leopard tanks, which will form the basis of the updated tank fleet of the Armed Forces of Ukraine, will attack together with the American Bradley infantry fighting vehicles. The tanks must break through the defenses, and then the motorized infantry on the BMP will go on the attack. However, this is ideal, while the reality is always different, and it is clear that it will not be the same as it is now being portrayed by Ukrainian leaders and their overseas sponsors.
