Our 230 old T72 went to Ukraine, our 230 PT-91 may go there in any moment, our Leo are mainly not operational so for now we have one of the weakest tank force :)
The question remains if that 180 K2 will be original K2, K2NO, or some kind of K2PL
Ok, now we know that Poland are ready to buy 180 K2 ASAP.
"It was confirmed that Poland had expressed its intention to purchase 180 K2 tanks from Hyundai Rotem. If the export is finalized, the export value is expected to reach 3 trillion won plus"

Dont get your hopes too high.
Those spanish Leopards are wrecks. Both Polish and Czechs were looking at them some 5 years ago and it was already total garbage then.
Lets face it, there are no Leo A2 in good condition for Ukraine.
They admire Asad because Putin did the same to russia.
He is killing his own people, he destroyed good relationships with "brothers" in Ukraine, he destroyed russia for decades in false hope that CCCP will be back and russians still supporting that madness.

Little birds are talking about 2 main point of the visit

And what do YOU think that war will end?
You capture Kiev, Odessa, Kharkov and go back to doing business with the world? HOW? With WHAT?
It was over when your plan A failed in February and USA and GB decided to arm Ukraine. It will take time but you remember WW2? Soviet union was able to defeat...
We do, thats why Poland is doing as much as it could to support Ukraine.
First Russian army is no more a threat.
Second, we have REAL friendly neighbour country, Ukrainians are like brothers right now.
Third, Belarus will be free from Russia soon and we will heve another friend on the east border.
Putin chose to destroy Ukraine and it is not bothering him (and russians) that Russia will go down by trying to do it to North Korea levels of economy.
What is most surprizing is that people in Russia dont care about the future at all. They want to go back to CCCP time that is long gone.
Well...
Abrams are for now. Its the only tanks that we can have in a few years and we can learn how to use it from right now.
Leopards are problematic.
a )the ones that we have need upgrade and its a pain in the ass, it is taking time, money and it is not going as it should be
b) other problem is that...

Situation on the west of Ukraine is pretty safe right now. In Poland there are more refugees going BACK to Ukraine then running away. I know 3 women who decided to go back last week to their home near Ivano Frankowsk.
