US Expects to begin delivering Abrams tanks to Ukraine in September — POLITICO

U.S. #Abrams #tanks are likely to arrive on the Ukrainian battlefield in September, according to six people familiar with the planning, as Kyiv’s forces push to retake territory in a counteroffensive that is picking up steam.

The plan is to send a handful of Abrams tanks to #Germany in August, where they will undergo final refurbishments. Once that process is complete, the first batch of Abrams will be shipped to #Ukraine the following month.

The US State Department approved a possible sale of Patriot anti-aircraft missile systems to #Poland for $15 billion.

Warsaw, following hundreds of #HIMARS and #Abrams #tanks, plans to purchase at least 48 #Patriot launchers, related equipment and 644 PAC-3 anti-aircraft missiles from the United States.

The current leadership of Poland, represented by President Duda, continues the consistent implementation of the plan to create the most powerful land army in #Europe.

Ukrainians' #Abrams #Tanks Training Expected to Start in Days

#PENTAGON — U.S. forces are expected to start training Ukrainians on M1A1 Abrams tanks “in the next week or so,” Pentagon press secretary Brigadier General Pat Ryder told #VOA on Tuesday.

About 250 Ukrainians are arriving in #Germany this week for the training, a senior military official familiar with the training told VOA on the condition of anonymity to discuss security matters.

The Ukrainians will train on 31 Abrams tanks that arrived in Germany earlier this month. U.S. officials have said that a different set of 31 M1A1 Abrams tanks are being refurbished in the United States and will be delivered to #Ukraine by the fall.

Training in Germany is expected to last about 10 weeks and will focus on how to operate the tanks, how to maneuver the tanks in a combined arms fight and tank maintenance, the official said.
