"Main Secret of War": WSJ on delivery to Ukraine hundreds of units of Western armored vehicles

With the closer decision of the partners on the transfer of the Armed Forces of the LEOPARD 2 and M1 Abrams, the question of throwing heavy cars to Ukraine is raised. Journalists claim that this is a kind of play in the cat-where Kyiv wins. The weeks of political disputes between Western allies about whether to transfer to Ukraine Western tanks are coming to the solution: Germany will announce plans to transfer Leopard 2 and the US - about M1 Abrams.

The Wall Street Journal writes about the complexity of arrival delivery to Ukraine. The publication suggests that in Germany the tanks will be transferred by a number of countries, which will significantly increase the number of modern tanks in Ukraine. However, the decision will be a new difficulty: the departure of heavy armored vehicles to the battlefield.

It is noted that the process of delivery of Western weapons and other military equipment to Ukraine is one of the secrets of the most careful war. NATO General General Henry Braus states that he is not sure that even in the capitals of the Hub countries know all the details. The transmission of weapons goes secretly, in the dark and masked so that the Russian Federation does not attack such escorts. In essence, delivery has become a kind of play of a cat-mouse in which Ukraine wins.

The risks and concerns about Russia's provocation are so large that the Armed Forces should take away weapons from NATO warehouses, it is not delivered to the combat zone by contractors. Poland, Slovakia and Germany play a decisive role in the supply of weapons to Ukraine. It is through their territory that the author assumes that weapons will be delivered by rail and powerful tractors that can transport heavy Western tanks. Their mass can reach 75 tons.

For the Russian Federation, the rods with tanks or echelons on the railway will be goals, so it can take some time for tanks, fuels and spare parts. In addition, the Pentagon states that you will need to create a base with spare parts to maintain the fuel -living fuel park. We will remind, on January 25 the media wrote that the states would be announced about the supply of M1 Abrams tanks today, January 25.
