The Ukrainian Army is about to receive up to 500 tanks and 1,000 infantry fighting vehicles from Poland
Poland said it would
donate all of its Soviet armor to the Ukrainian Army, including 500 tanks and 1,000 BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicles. The Armor of the Soviet Union transferred by Poland to Ukraine has been of great help to the Ukrainian Army on the battlefield, where they have to face the superior Russian armor.
The transfer of these mentioned heavy weapon systems to Ukraine can become a serious threat to Russian Troops. Since, Poland still has about 50 Multiple Rocket Systems, hundreds of battle tanks, many artillery guns, and several soviet-made air defense systems.
As for the BMP-1 infantry fighting vehicles, Poland has till now provided Ukraine with a small number of vehicles.
It is expected that in the next few months there will be thousands of Ukrainian Soldiers will be getting training in Poland to operate these vehicles.
Although not comparable to modern Russian BMP-2/3 vehicles, the Polish Army BMP-1 has been modernized and they will be of great help to the Ukrainian Army.
In addition to vehicles from Poland, Ukraine has also received help from the Czech Republic, Slovakia, etc.
Experts note that direct negotiations between Poland and Ukraine are ongoing and the United States will ensure that the replacement of old Soviet-made weapons with its own products will be completed as soon as possible.
