Re: MBT's
Guess I got my stories crossed, the Med incident involved a U.S. plane being " buzzed" close aboard three times happened before the ship incident which occurred in the Philippine Sea a couple of days later. This is still for now an "uptick" in these types of actions which during the Cold War especially in the Med where this happened routinely. I wouldn't call it an escalation (Unless it continues in a more compressed manner in time.) as much as " we're still here" as a reminder.
Watch and read the report, though this one has the Russians " catching some rays" on the helo deck...

POLAND: Looking to develop a " Tank Destroyer" capability.

Also...
GERMANY is going to continue to maintain them as POLAND is still moving forward with the LEOPARD PL Program. I wonder how much help they'll be receiving from Germany on the LEOPARD PL!?!
