kraine may be one step closer to receiving modern Western tanks as well as Styker armored combat vehicles.
The British Defense Ministry (MoD) is considering sending Kyiv a limited number of Challenger 2 main battle tanks, according to a report Monday by Sky News while Poland is considering sending Leopard 2 tanks, according to The Associated Press. If that happens, it would mark the first time Ukraine has received non-Soviet-era tanks from NATO members. And Politico on Monday reported that the U.S. is mulling the idea of sending Ukraine Stryker armored fighting vehicles. A senior U.S. defense official confirmed that to The War Zone Monday evening.
In a message to The War Zone, an MOD spokesperson would neither confirm nor deny the Sky News report but seemingly left the window open for a transfer of Challenger 2 tanks to take place.

The Biden administration pressed Russia into attacking and now I believe they are they are pushing Russia into launching a nuke. That way Biden and the WEF have the pretext for a world war to usher in their new world order.
From Tass but truer than 95% of the western press garbage posted here about Ukraine.
The market value of major Western defense corporations rose by 21.5% in 2022 amid Russia’s military operation in Ukraine and rearmament activities in Europe, Vedomosti estimated, based on data from Defense News and Tradingview. Arms manufacturers have turned up probably the main beneficiaries of the political crisis in Europe. As many as 40 countries and over 130 companies are involved in weapons supplies to Kiev, about half of which (60 firms) are American and another 55 are European.
Developments in Ukraine have really increased the capitalization of defense companies, Researcher at the Russian Academy of Sciences’ Institute of World Economy and International Relations Dmitry Stefanovich points out. The trend is largely rooted in a changed attitude to the defense industry in general and forecasts about the intensity of military activities.
The only way Ukraine can prevail, i.e., retain the Donbas, retake Crimea, and get Russia to sue for peace on their terms is if NATO intervenes directly. And, by all accounts, they seem to be heading down that road steadily.
At the moment, Ukraine is not only out of lots of equipment, they are nearly out of men. And they certainly don’t have enough men to train on 4 types of armored personnel carriers, and 5 different tanks.
So, at what point do we send our own selves, sons and brothers? Or is it time to bleed the Poles white?
Since there seems to be no lack of blood lust on this forum, I’d like to know, not where we want this to end, but how much are we willing to sacrifice?
Biden and his stupid neocon advisors will give Ukraine just enough of every US/NATO weapons system, at a proper pace, to allow the Russians to learn the capabilities of everything, and destroy them.
It used to be said that the business of America is business. Today, and for the past several decades, the business of America is war.

This is a democrat proxy war against Russia. They must protect their corrupt cash cow, Ukraine, and will gladly sacrifice as many Ukrainians as necessary. What’s even more absurd is that a large number of Americans support “Ukraine” without knowing a damn thing one way or another.
On the other hand it would be nice to get some real-world data on how they would fare against Russian weapons such as the Kornet anti-tank missiles.

The strykers are nothing more than a BTR-70 in that they only have a Ma Deuce or Mk-19 for armament.
I note Putin called a 36 hr Christmas ceasefire but zelensky said eff you
I believe some have 20mm cannons
The entire Western world has chosen Ukraine as the hill their gonna die on. It would have been nice for our leaders to tell us before now.I mean, we had a president impeached over Ukraine but no one ever said they were the lynchpin to democracy across the globe. The defenders of faith. Sigh…but here we are.
“Since there seems to be no lack of blood lust on this forum, I’d like to know, not where we want this to end, but how much are we willing to sacrifice?”
Exactly, I never hear an answer from the supporters this Russian invasion on this. Seems like they are willing to fight to the last Russian.
I have an idea. All the illegal aliens we catch at the border, we put them in Uniforms of Ukraine, give then a weeks training and send them to Ukraine to fight for freedom! Whole Spanish speaking battalions to push coward RuZZians out of the Donbass. We could send a million of these new foreign fighters.
Russian drones will have a field day picking them off.
Yep
A New World Order (Daniel 7:23) led by a Globalist politician who will be hailed as a “messiah” (colloquial: “Antichrist”) for an “historic peace deal” guaranteeing (hah) Israel's “safety” for 7 years. Such a man will be given the Nobel Peace Prize, no doubt.
Of course, he'll need a “religious” leader (False Prophet) to praise him and demand that the world worship him as “god”.
How about a Digital Currency? Maybe a little Mark on one's right hand or forehead to prove one's va666ine status and allow one to Buy, Sell, Work, Travel?
Nah, that could never happen........
Never thought I’d live to be in the end times. Maranatha!
Who then would be the real cowards and bad guys? We have plenty of armchair heroes and generals right here that could fight for whatever cause that is over there.
None of you Zeepers ever think.
