The Swedish Parliament approved the delivery of another package of military assistance to Ukraine, including tanks and self-propelled howitzers

The Ukrainian army will soon receive the 155-mm self-propelled guns FH77 BW L52 Archer and Tanks Leopard 2A5 from the presence of the Swedish army, the Swedish government approved the supply of military assistance to Kyiv.

Sweden is sending Ukraine another package of military aid worth $630 million, the Swedish parliament on the eve supported the government's decision to transfer weapons and equipment to the Armed Forces of Ukraine. To allocate funds to the Swedish budget, even special amendments have been made. As explained in Stockholm, military assistance to the Armed Forces of Ukraine "is in the interests of Sweden."



As mentioned above, the Swedes will supply Ukraine with eight self-propelled howitzers Archer ("Archer"), ten Leopard 2А5 tanks, as well as obsolete anti-aircraft systems RBS-97 (Robotsystem 97), which are American HAWK air defense systems. In addition, the supply will include ammunition, which is not exactly reported, but, most likely, it will be 155 mm artillery shells. The timing of the transfer of all this "wealth" to Ukraine has not yet been announced, as well as the number of RBS-97 anti-aircraft systems.

The fact that Ukraine will receive up to 10 Leopard 2A5 tanks from Sweden was announced at the end of February by Swedish Defense Minister Paul Jonsson. The Swedish government announced the allocation of a certain amount of Archer self-propelled guns for the Armed Forces in early January, promising to include them in the next military aid package, but without clarification. In addition, the Swedes will supply Ukraine with 50 CV90 infantry fighting vehicles, apparently a little later, since, judging by the announced weapons, they were not included in this package of military assistance.

Earlier in Stockholm, it was confirmed that Kyiv was trying to get combat aircraft from Sweden by sending a request for the supply of an unnamed number of Swedish JAS 39 Gripen fighters to the Ukrainian Air Force. However, the Swedes refused Zelensky on this issue, despite all their sympathy for the Kyiv regime.

    An interestingly modernized Lancet will pierce the Leopard? At least there is hope for this. The Ukrainian tank was destroyed by the Lancet.

    Footage has emerged confirming the effectiveness of the upgraded Lancet kamikaze drones. The engineers of the Kalashnikov Concern have finalized these loitering ammunition, taking into account the experience of the special operation, and now they can be effectively used against enemy tanks.

        Do you think that the Leopard 2 A4 is somehow better than the Ukrainian tank, whose ammunition detonated from the impact of the Lancet (video at the link in the post above)?
        US analysts have published data on the losses of Turkish Leopards in Syria. Thus, the IS militants destroyed about 20 tanks, 12 more on account of the Syrian army and its allies. Up to two dozen Leopard 2 tanks were knocked out by Kurdish militants, using for this both the Russian Konkurs and Fagot ATGMs and American TOWs, which the United States generously supplied them with. The conclusions were made by the Turks themselves, and they were published by the major Turkish publication SavunmaSanayiST, specializing in news of the army and armaments.


        The publication writes that "Leopards-2" took part in several major operations on the territory of the SAR - in the "Shield of the Euphrates", and then in the "Olive Branch". The results of the use of tanks in battles are disappointing - the Turkish military say that the car needs to be modernized. The main claims are made to survivability - the vehicle is often unable to withstand the impact of modern ammunition, as it simply does not have active protection. Experts came to the conclusion that in real battles the tank proved to be a failure.

          Sweden warmed up well in two world wars by supplying resources to Germany. We remember very well the Swedish volunteers in the SS troops, and their atrocities in Russia? And why haven't all these Germans, Swedes, Danes, French and other Czechoslovaks been accused of the Russian Holocaust? All countries and peoples of the Eurofascists must be forever, tightly nailed to the pillory of history. For me personally, a European = a fascist.

      Interestingly, the upgraded Lancet will pierce the Leopard?
      If with a cumulative warhead, yes from above, then it will break through, without a doubt.

    The timing of the transfer of all this "wealth" to Ukraine has not yet been announced,

    Well, usually they are voiced after deliveries.
    Deza from the West follows standard patterns.

      There, at first, a dozen countries agreed to transfer the tanks in words, and then it turned out to be only 2 countries. The rest rolled back. Here, too, the main thing is to blurt out in the media and leave the opportunity to roll back .......

        Physically, the Leopards handed over to Canada 8 pieces:

        Norway - 8 pieces:

        Spain - 10 pieces + training in Zaragoza:

        Poland - all 14 have already been sent to the 4th selection.

        Portugal 3 and Germany 18 Leo2A6 - the crews were preparing as a single unit and, apparently, the materiel is already on the way.


        Challengers are being trained. The English traditionally study for a long time.
        Abrams - judging by the news, they found an opportunity to send earlier, a less advanced version. Crews are preparing (or already) for training. The Americans have it long, like the British.

        Sweden promised 50 SV90s from repairs (but the plant is being sewn up there, probably these SVshki will be a priority, otherwise not this year. Recently, director Hagluns (manufacturer of SV90) cited interesting data. In 21, the plant produced 60 SV90 machines and no growth factors were observed, now their priority target car in two days.The volume of orders exceeded 400 SV90.I suppose that a golden monument to Putin will be put up at the checkpoint wassat ), 10 strv122 (improved Leo2A5) and 8-12 Archers.

        It seems that no one jumped off the tank coalition. Denmark - Leo1A5DK, because Leo2A5 is already converted to Leo2A7 and cannot be rolled back. The Netherlands - they wanted to find 10-15 Leo2 for a ransom for transfer, but they didn’t find it and decided to spend this money on buying something else for transfer (they reduced their tanks and sold them a long time ago). Belgium - at war with a weapons baron who breaks the price of Leo1.

    And ours said that NATO weapons are the legitimate goal of the Russian Army! What will our Minister of Defense say to this? Will he let them put down these weapons, or will he put an end to these weapons? What will our Defense Ministry command say about this?

      Initially, the "Northern Union", created in 1699 at the initiative of the Elector of Saxony and King of Poland August II, declared war on Sweden. At the same time, the Commonwealth did not declare war on Sweden. The "Northern Union" also included the Danish-Norwegian kingdom, headed by King Christian V, and the Russian kingdom, headed by the Tsar of All Rus' Peter I[11][12].

      Heh heh. Oh, these pseudo-historian comedians, with one joke they broke everything that they hammered into history at school.

    They are afraid to keep up with the rest, especially when joining NATO looms (?). Oh those Swedes. Interestingly, did Russian submarines stop bothering you or, on the contrary, did they go to "spawn"?

    Every Swede knows someone who has seen a Russian submarine.

    Send Charles XII there too. For authenticity.

    The tolerantized homo-descendants of Charles XII found liquid mazeppa. And what - and flags of the same color, and betrayal is still in the price of the glorious "civilized" Europeans. The Sultan also took a wait-and-see attitude. Now we need Menshikov, who will burn Baturin, and Peter, who will drive the square toe of his boot into a treacherous hollow and jam the other Swedes to the very tomatoes.
