Must have gotten the OK from Germany. But it is still going to be three or four months before the crews manning these Leopard tanks are trained well enough to enter battle.
Poorly manned tanks are highly vulnerable. Plus setting up the logistics, away the most important part of utilizing tanks on the battlefield.

Wonder how the Leopards compare to the Abrams? I’ve read Abrams are a maintenance nightmare while Germans have a long reputation for building world class tanks.

--- "Poland signals intent to send Leopard tanks to Ukraine"
A side note to the news report. Why "signal" and then send? If Poland is going to send, why place the interim step -- "signal" -- in the whole event?
When the "send" is accomplished, then this will be a news report. As yet, the "send" is not verified. Waiting....

Just in time to get stuck in the springtime mud. Should make good drone fodder.

Poland’s PM @MorawieckiM speaking on Germany’s Leopard transfer refusal: “It’s now up to Germany whether they want to join the mission to stop Russian barbarism, or choose to watch in silence and go down in history as those who were on the wrong side".

Enough of this drop at a time stuff...heat up the cow!!!
The nations bordering Russia should just drop this silly pretense and move into Russia and stop this madness.
We've been told time and time again that Putty won't go nuke, so what's the hold up here are Uke lives less valuable that others? is this war so important to arms manufacturers that it's necessary to keep it going as long as possible...I mean what the hell is going on here???

What’s with this sudden attention to tanks? Is the belief that if Ukraine only had more/better tanks they could expel Russia from Ukraine entirely?

We should round up a few hundred illegals from the border to drive the tanks for them.
