Gen. Teodor Incica\u0219, the head of the armaments directorate at the country\u2019s Ministry of Defense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Incica\u0219 said in an interview with Observatorul Militar, a podcast produced by the ministry, that the tank type was selected after the General Staff of the Romanian Land Forces decided it was best suited to strengthen the service\u2019s combat punch.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The military official did not disclose the variant and number of tanks that are to be purchased and the estimated delivery schedule. Local media reported that Bucharest could acquire as many as 54 units. The Abrams is expected to replace some of Romania\u2019s outdated Soviet-times tanks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The latest announcement comes as Romania and other Eastern European allies are accelerating their defense acquisitions in the aftermath of Russia\u2019s invasion of Ukraine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The planned procurement could make Romania the second operator of the U.S.-made tank in Eastern Europe after Poland\u2019s government <a href=\"https:\/\/www.defensenews.com\/global\/europe\/2022\/04\/05\/poland-signs-475-billion-abrams-tank-deal-as-russias-war-speeds-procurements\/\"><u>signed a deal<\/u><\/a> worth about $4.75 billion to purchase 250 M1A2 Abrams SEPv3 tanks in April 2022. Deliveries began last year. In addition to that order, in January 2023, the Polish Ministry of National Defence inked a second contract, valued at some $1.4 billion, to acquire 116 used M1A1 Abrams from the U.S., with deliveries scheduled to begin this year.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A request to approve the acquisition is expected for consideration by the Romanian parliament shortly, a senior
