Illia Ponomarenko:
If someone had told me on February 24, 2022, that I’d be seeing M1 Abrams in Ukraine with Ukrainian reactive armor in 2024, I’d suffocate in hysterical laughter.
If that ‘someone’ had added that Ukrainian-used Leopard 2s and Challenger 2s would be fighting in Russia’s Kursk region, I’d get up and die one more time.

I predicted on FR back in 2022 that Ukraine would get F16s and Abrams.
Also think this is a 10 year war.
7 years and 4 months to go!
