New Rule: Every time this guy calls our tanks “Abrahams, ” Britain has to donate another Challenger

[garyjones]

Abraham Lincoln was a US president. Creighton Abrams was a leading US tank commander in WW2. The M1 tank is named after Abrams (two syllables) not Abraham Lincoln (3 syllables).

[hisleea]

I don't want him to stop calling it the Abrahams, makes me chuckle every time.

[aztronomy]

Ahh yes. The US Abraham Lincoln tank. One of my favorites.

[Potatoshaneko]

There is no H in Abrams, why do people keep calling it an 'Abrahams'? It's an M1 Abrams.

[omidpourhossein]

The problems, the leaders never suffers. It's always the innocent people that always do.

Training could take thing they started training last summer 🙂

[scottlowson]

I wouldn't be surprised if Poland has been training Ukrainian tank crews for a while now

[Flipmole]

The M1 Abrams was named after General Creighton Abrams. What is this "Abrahams" tank all about?

[douglassmith]

Omg stop calling it the "Abraham's" Abrams

[jchendrix]

At the start of the war tanks were outdated weapons of war now they are talked about as being essential 😂

[jtmmmm]

If I'm at war with my neighbour and someone keeps handing them rocks to throw through my window, I'm going straight after them afterwards.

Tanks without ammunition are nothing.
Tanks without spare parts are nothing.
Tanks without maintanance are nothing.

It will make the most difference to the already over sized bank accounts of anyone profiting from the chaos, misery, death and destruction that using such tactics always leaves in it's wake.

[miken]

It is not the tanks, it is the logistics required to support a fully mechanized Army. Something has to happen behind the scenes for this to be successful.

[carbonjohnson]

So heavy german tanks pushing into Ukraine just in time for the spring thaw and thick mud. Where have I seen this before?

[miguelurrutdarkorangefan]

60 tanks, no matter how good, will have little impact in a war where armored vehicles are in the thousands.

[hanifmsomc]

Russia recognized the decisive roles of Javelin, then they recognized the decisive roles of Howitzers, then they recognized the decisive roles of Himars, and now they recognized the decisive roles of Leopards and Abrams. I am wondering what Russia need to recognize next?

[supercatsimon]

First the javelins were the gamechangers, then the himars but these 50 tanks will be the REAL gamechanger that will keep the dream of ukrianian victory alive!

[michalkus]

Leopard 2 from the 1980's and a REAL modern variant like the Leopard 2 A7+ from 2010's are pretty different machines..mildly put. No one is talking about it...
