It looks like the most boring thing ever. I'm aware that this is the purpose of camo and that it's partly because I can go to a nearby forest and see the same colors, but still.
The Abrams always looks beautiful in woodland. I am surprised that the Poles didn't get the commander's thermal camera upgrade though. It seems like that would be bare minimum purchase in 2023
>Deliveries are expected to begin this year (first battalion) and be completed by the end of 2024. The total value of the contract is about $1.4 billion net, of which nearly $200 million is financed by the US side as part of the aid funds granted to Poland. This means that the real gross value of the agreement is about PLN 6.5 billion, of which Poland will pay about PLN 5.28 billion to the US side, and the rest will be VAT transferred to the Polish Tax Office.
That's because Abrams IS the standard, and for a good reason. They're used everywhere the US shows up and they're used effectively. If you ask a child to draw a tank chances are he's going to have Abrams on his mind.
Last time we saw Leopards used they were mishandled by the turks and blown up in northern Syria.
>If you ask a child to draw a tank chances are he's going to have Abrams on his mind
fairly sure a child will just draw a box with a tank gun. I doubt the average kid can even tell apart abrams from t62 from leclerc
It's almost perfect. Almost.
Nice cocks.

Is this confirmed or are you basing it on these photos?
I'm going off of the photos. To be honest I don't remember which models were purchased, though I thought it was M1A2 not M1A1
M1A2 SEPv3 so I think what we're looking at in these photos is an unfinished job
Both. Poland ordered:
- 116 used M1A1 tanks, of which first batch is already in Poland
- 250 'new' M1A2 SEPv3 to delivered in 2025-2026 time frame.
I stand corrected. Thanks for the info anon
>- 116 used M1A1 tanks, of which first batch is already in Poland
I think these were given for free, no?

Partially.
>M1A1
+ FEP
Later variants of the M1A1 recieved a stabilizer and thermal sight for the commander's .50 cal.
It's justasgood.
USA-built thermal are export restricted. Poles are free to use their own, though.
Tank you very much
That's one depressing landscape.
filthy casual+candy ass detected
Its called a firing range, anon
Thats what much of Europe looks like much of the time
Suck a basic looking tank... Leopards and Challengers are much cooler looking.
You sound like a bitch.

You know full well the correct answer is a Patton. A Walker Bulldog if you're lucky.
I'm fine with that, some of the classic American hardware looks like shit.
>they installed the turret backwards
cute
That's so they can use the recoil as a speed boost to get places quicker.
gta physics
This is what forward generally looks for Polish tanks through history.
>Pole plays Russian Roulette with a Russian
>Pole uses this gun
>gun fires, kills Russian
>both win the game
It's so we can invade Russia while firing at Germany.
The nature is healing
God I love woodland camo so much.
Death to desert tan.
Green is best
These ones are just borrowed for training until the real ones arrive, SEP2 I believe.
>SEP2
Nope, SEPv3 and FEP.
I meant that the borrowed ones are SEP2. That's what I heard anyway.
Bring back Berlin Brigade patterns
yes
I wish USA would paint them in this odd multi-tone green.
Let's go bananas
FORD Abrams
Back to /btg/, old man.
Thanks doc!
For me? its the wolf gray and sand winter colorway
>Polish Abrams
Mid.
Where's the funny orange triangle?
Abrams in some desert
inb4 jannies
>Polish Abrams in Woodland
looks more like it's in a garage
Collect them all.
Very cool.
Why AREN'T American vehicles deployed to Europe or the Pacific painted in Woodland or green? Why do they insist on keeping everything tan?

also
Forest Green/Olive, Woodland and Desert Tan are the most common for obvious reason.
No under armor APU?
How do you say Abrahams in Poolish? Abrąsćżamiśz?
