Fair-weather friends stand at your side when the times are good, true friends go to war with you. Thank you, Poland.

reinforced with a composite steel outer layer.

Composite steel? What’s that?

I think there is no such thing.

I think they meant some parts that had been made of steel combined with composite.

**No Polish soldiers were injured although the blast severely damaged the vehicle.**

Thank you, God, for this miracle!

I was wondering are Polish forces using KTO Rys-2 (Lynx-2) or Irbis? I thought they are pretty decent constructions and much cheaper then imported Rosomak.

I think now it's to late.

Besides - I think "Rosomak" is being produced in Poland (just based on Finnish license).
