“The Covert Polish Repair Shop Patching Up Ukrainian Arms”
“In a sprawling factory complex surrounded by derelict buildings, hundreds of technicians are working around the clock on one of the biggest challenges of Ukraine’s war: repairing artillery and heavy armor and returning it to the front line.
Mechanics buzz around the football-field-sized workshop housing three AHS Krab guns, the air thick with the smell of metal dust and automotive grease. Two of the Krabs, which look like tanks but are self-propelled 155mm howitzer guns, are missing parts of their caterpillar tracks and are riddled with bullet holes and contorted metal.
Another Krab stands sparkling clean, ready to be ferried back into Ukraine along a route that has seen the biggest transfer of arms in Europe since World War II. Each weapon can take up to two months to repair by technicians who must pass layers of security checks before they are allowed onto the floor of the factory at a location The Wall Street Journal agreed not to disclose.“
“Short on time, Biden sought new Ukraine tank plan to break stalemate“
“After weeks of failing to persuade Chancellor Olaf Scholz to free up Germany’s Leopard 2 tanks for shipment to Ukraine, President Biden was ready to make one more try. Kyiv’s forces were convinced that if Western tanks weren’t on the battlefield by spring, it might be too late for them to thwart a coming Russian offensive and launch a successful one of their own.”
“The 31 M1A2s main battle tanks that Biden officially authorized on Tuesday would not be taken from U.S. military stockpiles, but would be procured under the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative. They would be built to task, without the depleted uranium armor, for delivery late this year or next.”
The poles and Bulgarians are the unsung hero’s of this war, while other study debate calculate and squirm. They have acted from the beginning and for good reason. Just look what the “brothers” of Ukraine do, like they did to Poland their words are lies and the Baltic states know this. Putin and his stooges can say all they want about nazis and imperialist. Much like the dims here, what they accuse others if they themselves are doing God bless the Poles, Estonians Latvians Bulgarians Fins Danes and many others who acted rather than “Studied”, but top on the list is Poland and Bulgaria
