Leopard tanks are originally German manufactured, and countries sending them to Ukraine are European countries.
Tell us again why you haven’t volunteered to fight for The Zelenskyy?
Have any of these chicken-hawks in the U.S. Congress attempted to explain the end-game of this madness ?
Lindsey and Mitch love these futile, foreign wars, where 100s of thousands are maimed, or die horrible deaths.
So the tank weapon systems etc. are that intuitive that one can just hop in and drive away?
Echols grandpa was a Nazi, sane with Von der psycho.
Estimate was about two months for Leopards to show up on the battlefield.
New training programs in Poland could get some Ukrainian soldiers ready to operate Leopard 2 Main Battle Tanks in combat in as few as six weeks, experts told Breaking Defense, although officers and maintenance specialists would take longer.

Germany is still using A7V designation for a modern tank?
A Battalion consists of from 300 to 1500:

A company consists of from 80 to 250:

Currently Germany has around 800 tanks in its
enventory of which 400 are in storage.
No way even a single battalion of tanks could be
sent from Germany;They do not have that many.
Probably the story should read “company” instead
of battalion. Even fox news sometimes runs with
stories they do not verify. This story is being ran everywhere!
Still Germany is capable of sending at least
300 Leopard tanks if not more. Perhaps that 400 they have
in storage.
This is an escalation of this war for sure and there
are always consequences. Not saying we shouldn’t help but
it will lead to trouble.
From your article under Tank Battalion:Prior to the late 1980s, Soviet tank battalions consisted of three tank companies of 13 T-64, T-72 or T-80 tanks each, along with a battalion headquarters mounted in a command tank and a headquarters and service platoon, for a total of 165 personnel and 40 tanks
Do not underestimate the Russian People. When pushed up against the wall they will unleash hell on their enemies. When Hitler betrayed Stalin and Blitzed his way across western Russia, everybody thought it was over for the Soviets. 20 million Russians died. 20 Million! Do you think they have forgotten? What the crowd in Davos wants is the strategic castration of Russia, so that it cannot interfere with the Globalist Cabal. This situation is precipitating a War Economy in Russia. Toward the end of WWII they blew past the Axis in weapons and aircraft production. And now, with ample justification, their propagandists are saying “God is on our side!” They are rebuilding churches and bringing religious studies to their schools. This may be cynical manipulation, but the Russians are a Patriotic and Religious people, who, once energized, will bring that Faith and Love of Coutry to the struggle. The weak, effete, people of the Western powers have neither.

NATO/Ukraine is not going to invade Russia so the current war is a hard sell to the population, especially the young Russians(military age).
Right, lets listen to Caitlin Johnstone, she's been so correct in the past.

"I want you to promise me you'll completely revise your worldview and drastically change your media consumption habits when March gets here and the invasion still hasn't happened."
They will be trained by US guys within Poland’s borders most probably.
The tank losses is especially huge on the Russian side.
They lose tanks about 4 to 1 against Ukraine.

TANKS on OUR southern border, not to Ukraine! Am I alone on this? Defense dept for OUR national defense. Have you all lost your minds?
No, but apparently know one cares about the destruction of this country. The House will begin hearings on the border crisis, they really need some fireworks because we all know it's a crisis, we need ideas that we can use NOW to start restrict these mass crossings etc.
Yes.
The US shipments of Abrams tanks to Ukraine is more like a symbolic gesture.
It’s foremost a show of political will and unity against the Russia-Chechnya-Belarus-North Korea-IRAN-CSTO coalition.
German Leopard tanks are not needed to secure our southern border. What's needed is a change of the US administration, to one that wants to secure our southern border.
