Finally, it took them a while, but it’s the result that counts. It sounds like the US may provide some Abrams as well; it’s hard to imagine Russia standing up to modern main battle tanks.
The Netherlands btw leases tanks from Germany and after this announcement are considering buying them and giving them to Ukraine. >

That most likely won't happen because I believe these are Leopard 2 A7s. Also, that would shrink Germany's tank arsenal even further, and this company (14 Tanks) that is now being sent is all that can be spared >

The Dutch can give their 18 A6 tanks no problem, but the announcement today was only that the government is considering it. >

But they don't own them. Dutch soldiers are stationed in a German-Dutch corps. If the Netherlands would buy these, Germany would miss them in this corps >

Yes, I said they are leased tanks. I'll just assume Germany doesn't care since they are not using those tanks anyway. >

No, they use these tanks because they are based in the I. German-Dutch Corps, which is subordinate to the 1. Panzer Division. The corps is an integral part of the German army >

Ok you know more about it, I only read the article where pm Rutte said because we lease them, we can buy them also and then give it to Ukraine. Which seems normal for a lease agreement. >

Tanks Germany.
Tanks alot. >

Bwahaha.  Get in losers, we’re going Vatnik Stomping. >

Wonder what they’ll be getting next? >

US is gonna send abrams >

They looked at it but found they were too heavy and too difficult to repair, logistically. >

This aged like milk.
