Ukraine has ordered 100 Rosomak multi-purpose armoured vehicles, which are made in Poland under a Finnish license, Poland's prime minister said on Saturday.

"I bring an order placed yesterday by (Ukrainian) Prime Minister Denys Shmyhal for 100 Rosomaks that will be fabricated here," Mateusz Morawiecki said during a visit to the Rosomak manufacturing site in the southern Polish town of Siemianowice Slaskie.

The order will be financed through funds that Poland has received from the European Union and US funds that Ukraine has received, he said, without providing details or the overall cost of the contract.

It says they ordered. Who is paying for it? We already pay for their pensions.

Plywood targets would be much more cost effective and just as useful

I hope this “order” (so far) gets fulfilled in short order.

Are they better than T-54 tanks? I wonder.

Ordered?? Like with US Dollars?? Poland is not a stupid country. I’ll bet they’re getting bucks for each immigrant...just like the Churches in the USA.

“Plywood targets would be much more cost effective and just as useful”

And balloons - that’s what Serbia used against the Neocons when they tried bombing the crap out of them in 1999 (or whenever), from 30,000 feet. It was HYSTERICAL!!!

It wasn’t until the Neocons assembled some ground forces that Serbia was forced to buckle.

...so expect the same regarding Ukraine.

Finland was once under the iron fist of the Russian Empire. They are not about to revisit that and become Putin’s slaves.

Well before that they were under Swedish rule and considered cannon fodder by the Swedes.

Looks like just the ticket for getting through that Spokwne-Coeur d’Alene rush hour commute. That slat armor is handy for dealing with road ragers.

“Finland was once under the iron fist of the Russian Empire. They are not about to revisit that and become Putin’s slaves.”

Much better to be slaves of the NWO, WEF, NATO, George Soros, Jake Sullivan, Secretary of State Antony J. Blinken, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Gen. Mark A. Milley, Secretary Lloyd J. Austin, Victoria Nuland, and of course, election thief and usurper Joe Biden. Much Much Better! Russia was going to attack Finland any day now! Phew that was close!

They let Ukraine up and order and we pay for it. I want a pony and I want the taxpayers of the US to pay for it.

“That slat armor is handy for dealing with road ragers.”

That “slat armor” in #12 is probably wire mesh, very useful for poking branches thru to hide while running down tree lined country roads and open woodland.

Anyone have an idea how quickly these vehicles can be produced?
