White House spokesman Kirby: US authorities are working on several options to speed up the supply of Abrams tanks to Kyiv

Ukraine can get American Tanks Abrams is faster than previously announced. This was stated by the official representative of the National Security Council of the White House, John Kirby.

Washington is working on several options in which the delivery of tanks to Ukraine will occur earlier than the previously named dates. What the White House intends to do, Kirby did not explain, but stressed that some changes to the process are already being prepared. Earlier it was reported that the shipment will take place no earlier than the end of this year.

We are working on it (...) There are some changes we can make to the process to speed it up

- Kirby answered the question of another journalist, asked in relation to the supply of tanks to Ukraine.

The fact that the Pentagon has not yet made a final decision on the timing of the transfer of tanks to Kiev was reported back in February of this year by Breaking Defense, citing a high-ranking official of the US State Department. According to him, the US has not yet decided which tanks to send to Ukraine - new ones that still need to be produced, or old ones that are in storage. The original version called for the production of 31 M1A2 Abrams tanks under the new contract and after the release of production facilities. But this means a big delay. The variant with the transfer of old tanks is faster, although they will also need to be repaired.

According to reports, the Pentagon is considering the option of a combined delivery, in which half of the tanks will be new, and the other "not so good." Such a move would potentially speed up the delivery of tanks to Kyiv.

Meanwhile, the training of Ukrainian tankers on American Abrams tanks is in full swing, in Kyiv they hope that the equipment will arrive during the summer, but not before the end of the year. Zelensky previously said that in August "it will be too late."

They need to simplify the design, introduce changes to the technology for the production of armored steel. These tanks are not intended for use by persons with priceless Anglo-Saxon blood .. Well, or partially by representatives of BLM ...

You see how their disinformation works, first they announce that there are difficulties, that it is impossible to do, that maybe next year, that there are only a few pieces. Girikin writes that there are already a hundred Leopards in Ukraine and the Abrams will arrive before the offensive. Everything is according to a predetermined plan, and our authorities do not see anything, because their eyes are filled with soap.

they have Ukraine in Chicago, and Kief in North Dakota and with logistics it’s easier and you can send it to Moscow, to Idaho

"Zelensky said earlier that in August "it will be too late."

Does the Fuhrer know something? Why suddenly after August tanks will not be needed?

NATO is preparing a new tank battle near Prokhorovka on the Kursk Bulge?
Will the tanks with crosses from the other side and the tanks with stars from ours converge again?
Pinch me - it's deja vu!

Pinch me - it's deja vu!

Now our tanks will go into battle with the letter Z on their armor!
And the stars will be in the hearts of our tankers!

Well, let's do it, "Nord Streams" "It is not known who blew up", ships with tanks "It is not known who drowned."
Yes - the Internet is evil, it would be unknown who would be found, who would fix the cables, while there is no satellite

All American bobik is dead, now such hysteria will begin in the west. We have complete mutual understanding and trust in China. Putin, a man, famously answered England about the supply of anti-tank shells with uranium. The appeal is not to England, but to the entire NATO.

[tralflot1832]

The West in Ukraine decided to give us a decisive battle so as not to cross the only red line - a direct clash of NATO and Russia, with the removal. to the ashes not of cities, but of states. They have the only opportunity to prevent this, to win in Ukraine. Dreaming!

. They don't stop throwing firewood into the fire...

It takes time to replace packages with uranium armor with regular ones, so third countries will most likely supply them, and then the United States will compensate them with new tanks.

And what, the United States at that moment were conducting NWO in Cuba?

[Azat15]

well, in general, yes! just a year ago, the United States staged an invasion of Cuba and was clearly going to repeat it.

Gathered and attempts WAS .. Don't you know!? Yes, and .. later they were VERY upset and tried to "sanitize" when they inserted a "wick" for rudeness in Turkey. Good to know...

To check as many NATO weapons as possible from mattresses in Ukraine - it’s worth it not to drag this junk to Romania at all, or to bury it somewhere in Oklahoma and take up extraordinary space. In August, it may be too late, but there is nowhere else to check: they caught up with Afghanistan, but in Syria the scale is not the same.
