After the IMF approved another loan for Ukraine, the Polish prime minister announced that Kyiv would buy 100 Rosomak armored personnel carriers from Warsaw

As soon as the IMF approved another loan package for Ukraine with a statement that these funds should not go to military needs, the Polish government announced that Kiev had submitted a request to purchase hundreds of Rosomak armored personnel carriers from Warsaw. Prime Minister of Poland Mateusz Morawiecki made a statement. Moreover, from Morawiecki's statement, it became clear that the Ukrainian authorities were going to pay Poland for such a fairly large supply not at all from their own funds.

Moravec:



Kyiv will buy 100 Rosomak armored personnel carriers from us for the Ukrainian army.

Further, Morawiecki specified information about the upcoming Ukrainian purchase, noting that the funds to the Polish budget should come "from the funds of the European Union and the United States allocated to help Ukraine." These funds may well turn out to be funds from the IMF loan. By and large, it is hardly possible to check this by the IMF itself, if this structure is going to carry out such a check at all.

In the classic version, the Rosomak armored personnel carriers are equipped with a combat module with a 30 mm automatic cannon and a 7,62 mm machine gun. There is also an option with the armament of the Polish Wolverine with the Spike anti-tank missile system.

How much such a purchase on behalf of Ukraine will cost Western taxpayers has not yet been reported.

    Finally, we have a neutralizer in the depths of the defense of the Armed Forces of Ukraine. It remains to bring up reconnaissance equipment. The bomber is in a good mood today.

      Rather, it's not so simple. Giving cash loans is either stupid or done to create a corrupt environment. Normal loans are given for something (the purchase of their products). If Kyiv buys weapons from Poland, then it was planned from the very beginning. For what? Perhaps a second front is being prepared in the person of the Poles. It is not in vain that Poland is getting rid of old weapons in exchange for new, NATO ones. So soon their entire army will be brought to NATO standards, which will greatly simplify logistics. Poland will attack Russia? For what? They can still enter under the existing Kyiv authorities as an aid for protection and protection. Kyiv gave some rights to the Poles on a par with the Ukrainians. And the Poles can enter either the outskirts of the West, or? What then? Are we going to smash the Poles? In Syria, the Americans feel good in the oil fields of Syria. Are we smashing the states there? So the Syrian option is quite possible on the outskirts.

    Reminds me of the situation with the song "Insure my brother, insure." They broke limbs there, the insured, so that the rest would get drunk on his insurance. Here I break the country. The result is similar.

    Patria is a successful BBM, like they have already been supplied to Ukraine. The forehead holds up to 30 mm subcalibers. In the version of the Rosomak infantry fighting vehicle, it is armed with a 30 × 173 cannon, they penetrate all our armored vehicles except for the forehead of the main and medium tanks.
    The main thing is that the option with spikes does not go. Israel, so far, from forbids delivering.
    The quantity is also not pleasant, enough for a mechanized brigade.

      Javelin will put no problems ... This is also an option.

    . Ha, ha, the babosiki were not allocated to them for the war! The question is, for whom do they tell all sorts of stupid tales?

    And khokhly, interestingly, still think that they are supplied free of charge? Do they even know that it's all in debt and at interest? I mean ordinary pots from the street ..

    Very good equipment, probably even better than the Stryker. High level of crew protection and excellent mobility. In addition, the weapons have been field-tested in Iraq, where they proved to be resistant to almost everything except 50-kilogram liquor. Even the RPG-7 could not stand it.

      Here it is on the right, improved by Israel with additional armor, KPVT holds on board, they say it holds PG7v from RPG7 in the forehead
      + It holds 7kg of explosives under the bottom, + screens can be put there from the same RPGs. These are very good indicators for an armored personnel carrier, especially if you look at the booking of the armored personnel carrier 82, which the same KPVT will flash through

    A strange story.
    Poland should have had hundreds of BMP1s, which could be sent "to the East" at prices below market prices - they would change anyway, and keep the Wolverines for themselves ... request

      The combat value is incommensurable. These AFVs are needed for the offensive. BMP-1s are suitable only as tractors, the value even as an armored personnel carrier is debatable.

    I wonder if they can transfer theirs from the squad or will they make new ones? If new... it's not a quick story...
