          In those raw terms it's more like a better GMLRS than an ATACMS. But it's also just a very different weapon system, it's basically a rocket strapped to what was previously an air-dropped smart bomb. It also not battle-tested but the Swedes say they can make them for Ukraine.

      Abrams would have been next to useless in this war anyways, but rockets will do some damage. The strategic value of tanks is gone. The military was considering discontinuing tanks 5 years ago. The problem is that a couple thousand dollar rocket could destroy a tank from a mile away and you can mass produce rockets a lot faster than tanks. It is like sitting in a pill box in WW2.

          There is a reason Russia and Ukraine lost most of their tanks at the start of the war. The things can be destroyed or disabled by one guy with a modern rocket launcher. If you had unlimited tanks then they are useful, but it takes 5 months to make one Abrams. They aren't useful anymore and the only reason they are still produced is military lobbyist and politicians wanting to keep the factories running in their states. It would be better to change over all manufacturing over to ballistic armor for infantry and missiles.

              The cost isn't the issue it is time and how effective the equipment is. Tanks don't have a role that isn't done better by missiles, artillery, or squadrons. It has a cannon that isn't any better than a missile. It is so much less maneuverable than a soldier it is a sitting duck when under attack. Unlike you I'm not arguing out of my ass. The pentagon has literally said there is no longer any strategic value in tanks. I am not making up reasons from the top of my head I am citing 5 star generals and military analyst. Unless you have better sources you can frick off.

                There's quite a bit in that about wanting to stop making/maintaining Abrams but I couldn't find anything about not wanting tanks in general. Honestly after reading that the reluctance to send Abrams is weird, if you're going to be repairing 40 year old tanks just to keep your factory workers they may as well be repairing battle damage rather than rust.

            a European fight, that threatens Europeans more, means that the US needs to send more than them? I think the whole point is that Europe needs to fight for itself for once and actually pull its own weight in NATO

            Germany won't even allow other NATO countries to give their own tanks to Ukraine. Approving their export costs Germany absolutely nothing aside from printer paper.

                russians, being the most unlikeable creatures on earth comparable to Black folk, do not have that and are on their own. they too still have tanks, but it's questionable if it's even much more than ukraine has at this point.

                Russia has been reduced to fielding T-62s, their reserves of usable tanks are likely running low. We only see a handful of very new T-90Ms and a large number of very obsolete T-72As and T-62s from Russia. They are unlikely to win if the West provides a steady stream of arms to Ukraine.

                Correct. Ukraine started with T-64BVs and has been given T-72M1s. Russia started with T-72B3Ms, T-90A, and T-80U; and is now fielding an eclectic mix of T-90Ms, T-62s, and T-72As. Challenger 2 is better than any tank listed there for either side. Leopard 2 depends on the model, with 2A4 being mediocre and 2A7 being quite good.

                no dude, I get it. Its like in a video game, a skill issue, where you need an advantage like something better than the other guy to win. Ukraine just needs a crutch because they lack skill. Its so simple.

                Do you know how a logical argument works? Basically you take a few statements, or facts that are true, and you place them next to each other. After this, you construct a conclusion, which is generally a statement that even if direct proof or it does not exist, has to be true if the above statements are true. Let’s try practicing for ourselves:
                >Ukraine has tanks
                We know this because they’ve captured more tanks than they have lost, and they have received a few from foreign powers. Even if Ukraine started the war with zero tanks, which they didn’t of course, we can safely say they have a least 100 or so now, though more likely around 550.
                >tanks help win wars
                I think this is pretty safe to say since both sides are using tanks, and almost every war that has been carried out since the creation of the tank in which it has been remotely feasible to field them has seen them used by all sides that can
                >western tanks are basically free
                Even if they’re part of some sort of long-term loan deal, they consume no resources to acquire that Ukraine could better put to work in other sides of the war effort, therefore they are an extremely cheap, or entirely free asset to obtain.
                Now that we have our three statements we can make an easy conclusion:
                >Ukraine has tanks and wants more.
                See? That was pretty easy. Try doing it with other things, it’s called deductive reasoning, or inductive if the conclusion has some room for doubt, which in this case it really doesn’t.

                “Oh, so if you DONT get a straw you will DIE of DEHYDRATION?”
                I think we can both agree the second person is moronic. In a more realistic example, we can look at the conversation we just had and conclude that in this case you are moronic.

                War is not a game and you need better equipment to be able to easily achieve success. Its either deagging the conflict out for an eventual win or send equipment that can provide a quick and decisive victory. Its not about losing, but more about doing better.

                The ANA lost because they can't survive without american support. The taliban wasn't able to do anything except broker a deal with the americans in exchange for them to pullout. America didn't care about the ANA, but cared more about al-Qaeda/ISIS. In which case, they accepted a deal that ensure that they deal with counter terrorism operations. taliban won against the ANA, but not against america because america hasn't even done much operations against them since 2014. By January 2021, only 2,100 American troops are left in afganistan and have stopped supporting the ANA since 2020.

                Who by? Russia has vast reserves of tanks (condition notwithstanding). What they don't have is large numbers of modern tanks. The newest tanks in the Russian Army are the T-90M (numbering in the dozens), T-72B3 Obr 2016 and T-80BVM, both of which number in the hundreds. They have lost significant numbers of these, particularly T-72B3s and the T-80s of the 1GTA earlier in the war.
                Ukraine's tank forces have also suffered losses and unlike Russia they are reliant on sourcing replacements from elsewhere. Ex-Soviet stocks of tanks in Europe are finite. Most have already been donated or are being refurbished to be sent through this year.
                As we are entering a phase where Ukraine intend to counterattack in the Donbas, they need more and ideally better tanks. Which leaves western MBTs as the logicam choice.

                True, but it was already a long reply and I need to go to sleep. I'd say given the Russians had to use T-62Ms earmarked for Syria to plug the gaps, the reserve fleet of T-72s is not in good condition. How many hulls are salvageable and how easily Russia can get hold of modern night vision/thermals with current sanctions is a whole new can of worms that I don't think anyone ITT can really answer.

                The optics question is really the big one. Tanks aren't obsolete, but tanks without situational awareness are death traps. Western optics and thermals absolutely shit on anything the Russians are using. That's the single biggest reason Ukraine wants western tanks. That and a reverse speed faster than a glacier.

      But Leo2 isn't expensive? It doesn't require training? Mutts are such Black folk holy shit.

        I don't think he really knows why we haven't sent M1s yet, he doesn't know that the m1's turbine really isn't a "jet" engine.

          If gas turbine was such a deciding factor, the american argument against abams and for leo2 would be "WE HAVE GAS TURBINE, LEOS HAVE DIESEL ENGINE,THIS IS 10000% BETTER" and that would be a valid argument.
          But if they start with "uuuuh its expensive, uuuuuuuh it needs crew training, uuuuuh spare parterinos" then you know its bullshit argument. And just an excuse to not "escalate" and let germans waste their own tanks instead.

            Stuff like this is why I unironically browse /k/ every day to get up-to-date info on the equipment needed for Ukraine; otherwise I would have bought into the same red herrings as the boomers that follow such news articles without question.

      I've trained kids off the block to fix fighters as I was trained in my time. Any heavy truck mechanic, auto mechanic (cars suck compared to aircraft) etc can get familiar even quicker and sending foreign troops through US training schools is much older than anyone reading this.

      Send Abrams to backfill every Eurotank then send those east. Problem solved for everyone.

        Preach. If you already know "how stuff works", the training period for an experienced mechanic would probably be only a few weeks (if that).

      what does something from 80 years ago have to do with Ukraine not having tanks?

      • 1 year ago
        Anonymous

        Because it's the same argument. The Soviets also asked for tanks, so that must mean they didn't have any tanks, right? But the reality is they had the most tanks of any power in the war because the T-34 is the most-produced tank of all time.

        Anyway, you do this is in every thread. No, the US sending tanks to Ukraine is not bad news for Ukraine. It's bad news for Russia.

          no, clearly the Soviets asked for and got tanks. Which is why they have so many now, unlike Ukraine who's out of tanks.

            are you broken or something? the answer you've gotten is that nobody gives a shit that ukraine still has a useful amount of tanks, we want them to have more, and they do too.
            just because we want that doesn't mean ukraine has lost it's existing tank fleet.

        The Soviet Union received thousands of tanks, despite building many thousands of Christie Tank T-34 in factories like the American designed and built Stalingrad Tractor Factory, because a bigger army killed Germans quicker

        Ukraine is receiving Western vehicles despite having some of their own and some that they've captured, because a bigger army kills Russians quicker

            Tanks are offensive weapons. If Ukraine is serious about counteroffensives they need local superiority in either quantity or quality of tanks, ideally both. The optics and fire control systems of western MBTs are the biggest overmatch in this regard.
            So they won't lose as such if they don't get more tanks, but it'll be harder and much more costly to try and kick the Russians out.

              no, they'll still win, just slower and bloodier, the poster you replied to also doesn't bring up the fact that it's quite hazy how many more tanks they can actually bring into service out of their giant stock of decrepid looted hulls.
              keep being a pretentious liar though.

              idk guys this sounds like cope, Russia has more tanks ie not begging for more, Ukraine is out of tanks AND they need better tanks or they will lose. It really seems that simple.

                Interesting because russia was begging for artillery rounds, missiles, and drones. Do you think those might make russia lose? Having less of three things is worse than having less of one

                Don't for the fricking mobilization
                By the dumb bait logic this guy keeps pushing, that must mean the entire Russian military was dead by September, otherwise they wouldn't be calling up the mobiks.

    Am I right in assuming most of the problems reported with the Stryker are about the MGS variant? The troop carrier with the M2/Javelin CROWS seems like it could be extremely useful.

      I just wanna say I fricking love this thing. I know it's kinda shit which is why it's being retired but it was one of the first vehicles that caught my eye when I first started getting into milibooism and I've had a soft spot for it ever since. I hope they all go to Ukraine and get to achieve their purpose rather than getting sold for scrap.

    Let's be honest anon. I don't think that a dozens of abram and leopard will have big impact in the war. Sure, extra tanks is always good, but for battlefields that dominated by artillery, i don't see many benefit of owning a dozens extra tank?
