Doesnt look like germany will be sending Leopards then.
Our man doesn't care much for Germany. He titled this rant "Traitors".
"It is well known that the two previous German leaders was paid by Russia in the way of receiving cosy and high paid jobs directly after resigning in Gazprom and Nordstream. This is a fact.
There is good reason to believe that the same is true for the current one.
Among other NATO countries and EU-members it is becoming abundantly clear that Germany under the current leadership is a bad actor.
Germany today blocked transfer of any Leopard II tank indefinitely.
It is also unclear if Germany in the future will send any further military aid to Ukraine.
This has been a long going issue with Germany.
Something that we have known since 2014-02-27...
On that day armed Swedish Soldiers stormed the German owned ThyssenKrupp Kockum Shipyard in Sweden due to Germany on proven Russian instigation was blocking Sweden from purchasing new submarines.
Sweden took back all designs, tooling, and technology from ThyssenKrupp, and crushed the company permanently via financial means.
The shipyard itself was transfered directly to SAABs Naval Division, and submarine construction quickly commenced.
At the time this stunned the world.
The mistake we did back then was that we never stated exactly why.
The stalling and hindrance was done on direct orders of Angela Merkel.
Further investigations gave at hand that she was working on behalf of Vladimir Putin directly, and had been doing so for quite some time.
We informed the UK and the US about this.
It has seen soured the relations, and to this date Germany is not a part of the intelligence network.
I am stating this as a backdrop to what has been going on behind the scenes, and in the open, in regards of Germanys recalcitrance to send weapons.
This has caused among others Poland to seek other suppliers of tanks and other weapons systems, hence Polands orders of Korean K2 tanks and US Abrams.
It is also the reason that Germany no longer has any new defence equipment contracts.
This is why Poland has secured a contract previously with BAE Hägglunds for production of spare parts for their tanks, and with SAAB Bofors Dynamics for 120mm NATO tank shells.
They are thusly in the position that they can break the contract permanently with Rheinmetall AG.
Same is obviously true also for Sweden and Finland.
Others will obviously move rapidly into the same type of agreements now.
Abrams
There is a huge drawback to the Abrams, they use gas turbine engines running on Avgas, jet engine fuel.
Ukraine can't realistically handle that huge volume of a new fuel, this is why we fought to the bitter end to try to Free the Leopards from Germany.
Neither Poland, Sweden or Finland can let go of a larger number of tanks.
Poland is still waiting for the Abrams and K2s.
Finland has nothing on order.
Sweden is just starting a new development for Sweden and Finland.
A workaround is being negotiated as I am writing.
I am only partially privvy to the details.
One thing is clear, Poland is to immediately transfer 2 Leopard IIs just to **** on Germany and to break the contract.
What is discussed is that the US will transfer used Abrams on hand to Poland, but Poland can't send tanks at speed until their crews are retrained.
Same sorts of deals are also discussed with Sweden and Finland.
But... Time...
It has therefore been lifted that for a short duration US crewed Abrams tanks will take over the tank part of the Defence of these 3 countries.
That would free up rapidly hundreds of tanks that are free from Germany.
How bad is the situation with Germany?
Let me just say that it is closer that Germany will openly side with Russia in the war, than they are to freeing any Leopards for Ukraine.
The only good part is that we now have it in the open that Germany is a bad actor.
And Scholz is now as persona non-grata as Victor Orban... and Germany is about to be isolated from any military cooperation."
