The hits keep on coming!
First CHALLENGER:
Will arrive in the Ukraine at the end of March or mine-April as no plan is perfect. Ukrainian crews had just arrived according to this, so that makes it last weekend. Now we have a better picture of the training cycle which puts it at
2 months minimum.
That's how long it takes to train crews on the ABRAMS as well which I posted from USA source about three years back. Tank Commanders take longer as do Platoon Leaders. They'll finish that in the Ukraine if they follow the
T-55S current field training taken from the T-55S "
SLAT" article I posted last week from
FORBES.

LEOPARD 1A5 NO NOT FROM THEM BUT FROM DENMARK
THIS IS NOT ACTIONABLE AT THIS TIME.
That being said it is something
we need to track. The deal
has not been reached but is in progress from the Company that bought the tanks from Denmark originally. As the article indicates the German company
FFG has the capability to further update these tanks but we don't know if they will, depending on the contract
IF Denmark can get the deal done in the first place.
We are looking at Denmark
LEOPARD 1A5-DK UNIT 023.

GERMANY:
Here's a perfect example why training matters and ALL the countries are doing within their normal training cycles. A simple term-"
Return on Investment" in others being able to operate them without them getting blown up in the first week of operations,
AGAIN I would point out how the Ukraine is currently training with the
T-55S that's been in country
since last October (End of.) .
Countries are giving all they have at great cost. The French for example is currently violating the law concerning how low they can go on military equipment; in this case I'm speaking of
CEASAR. This article deals with concern over the
LEOPARD
