Germany is preparing to transfer a new large batch of Leopard 1A5 tanks to Ukraine

Germany will not leave Ukraine without German tanks, a new batch of armored vehicles was included in the new package of military assistance already provided to Kyiv. True, the Germans were unable to supply modern modifications, so the Ukrainian army will have to be content with the outdated Leopard 1A5.

While German Leopard 2 tanks are burning out near Avdiivka, the German government continues to supply the Ukrainian Armed Forces with Leopard 1A5 tanks. According to information posted on the Bundestag website, the Ukrainian army will immediately receive 25 tanks of the first series from those previously promised. It is not yet known when this will happen, but Ukrainian resources report that the tanks should be handed over in the near future. The delivery is financed by the Germans together with the Danes.



Earlier, the Ministry of Defense of Ukraine announced the adoption of Leopard 1A5 tanks into service with the Ukrainian army. As stated, this armored vehicle showed its “effectiveness” in battles against the Russian army, therefore it was chosen by the Ukrainian Armed Forces as “modern and high-tech” weapons.

In the meantime, Berlin has transferred to Kyiv 12 armored vehicles, 7 Primoco ONE reconnaissance UAVs, five surface drones, 5 MAN trucks and 4 semi-trailers and 12 MAN TGS trucks. In addition, the Germans continue to dress the Ukrainian Armed Forces, supplying the Ukrainian military with winter uniforms. This time Kyiv received 30 thousand sets of winter tactical clothing and 10 thousand ballistic glasses. The Germans also donated 32 SatCom satellite terminals.

The package also included two TRML-4D detection and correction radars, which are used as part of the IRIS-T SLM anti-aircraft missile system, and 2 AMPS airborne defense systems for helicopters, which should protect the vehicles from Russian air defense.

          “Germany will not leave Ukraine without German tanks,” it seems that Russia will not leave Germany without the Russian flag hoisted on a government building. And the tanks need to be clicked directly on the railway tracks of the country that took upon itself all the burdens of supply.

            Today I heard one guy on TV during the day comment on Zaluzhny’s words that he was reading a Soviet book published in 1941 about the capture of fortified areas.
            Previously, in Ukraine they read "Mein Kampf" and "Achtung, Panzer!" Guderian.
            Now they are reading books by Soviet generals. I hope they will read to the point where it all ended.

      Well, recently they complained that the first Levos are not combat-ready and require expensive repairs, especially given the shortage of spare parts, since the tank has not been produced for a long time. In no other way did they knock out money for nothing. Rheinmetal will sell its own mother for a profit; it will buy the remains anywhere for pennies, sort them out and sell them for the price of a tank. And the ammunition will need to be replenished, and he needs 105 mm shells for the rifled gun.

      German Nazi politicians Scholz, Habeck, Bearbock, Strack Zimmermann, etc. are warmongers in Europe. Bearbock and the new German Minister of War declared war on Russia several months ago. Most Germans are against it, only stupid German politicians want to help the Kyiv Nazi regime..

      At this time,

      Data on the arrival of disassembled F-16 fighters to Ukraine has been published.
      That night, two trucks carrying two dismantled American F-16 fighters entered Ukraine from Poland. The Rybar telegram channel reports about this. According to the resource, as of November 2, five aircraft of this type were transported to the territory of Ukraine.


      Let us remind you that Vladimir Zelensky has been asking the West for F-16 fighters for several months. And although a promise to supply these aircraft to the Kyiv regime was given, the Western press reported that it would be impossible to do this before the spring of next year.

      It’s impossible to count how much scrap metal will remain in the fields... unfortunately, there will be an unmeasurable amount of other dangerous “gifts” left there and everything will have to be collected, neutralized, and destroyed!

      The tank is of course outdated, but when used according to its capabilities, it will serve, and underestimating it will do a disservice. The tank is light, mobile, its place is in defense, its low-power gun is considered to be dangerous for any lightly armored vehicle, and its sighting devices are quite modern. So. that the news about the delivery of these Leopards is bad news.
