Training for Polish soldiers began following the inauguration of an Abrams Tank Training Academy at Biedrusko Training Area, the Army announced earlier this month. The service made 28 Abrams tanks available to the country last month for that purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Poland is rushing to modernize its armored capabilities, as officials study the course of Russia\u2019s assault on Ukraine. In that conflict, tanks and artillery have played a critical role on both sides. Western military support of these weapon types to Ukraine, including from Poland, has reportedly helped Ukrainian forces hold Russian invaders at bay in the east.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cNATO\u2019s strength lies in its unity, which has never been greater than it is today,\u201d said Doug Bush, the Army\u2019s acquisition chief. \u201cThis award is an example of the Army\u2019s continuing work with our industry partners to increase production of critical military equipment capabilities to ensure we continue to meet the needs of our partners and allies.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Earlier this year, before war in Ukraine began, the U.S. State Department <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/land\/2022\/02\/18\/state-department-clears-6-billion-sale-of-tanks-to-poland\/\">cleared Poland<\/a> to buy American military equipment worth up to $6 billion. The proposed package, published by the Defense Security Cooperation Agency for congressional review, included the 250 tanks now under contract.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Warsaw wants to buy additional tanks from South Korea, and faster. CNN reported in late July that the Polish government hopes to get almost 1,000 copies of South Korea\u2019s K2-based tank in a large weapons package <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2022\/07\/21\/south-korean-officials-say-major-sale-of-weapons-to-poland-is-imminent\/\">pegged at $14.5 billion<\/a> in Korean media reports. The deal also includes hundreds of self-propelled K9 howitzers, manufactured by Hanwha Defense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Made by Hyundai Rotem, the first 180 K2 tanks are scheduled to be shipped later this year, according to CNN.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Meanwhile, Polish officials were also hoping to get a batch of Leopard 2 tanks from Germany to replace some of the equipment donated to Ukraine. But such deal has yet come to fruition, with leaders in both countries haggling over how many copies Berlin could spare and in what condition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Poland is rushing to modernize its armored capabilities, as officials study the course of Russia\u2019s assault on
