Polish Abrams will be only serviced by US companies like in Saudi Arabia. Not by Polish companies or Polish spare parts.

Time to stop buying staff from US for such backstabbing.

  2. It is not sure yet, however if this became true, then all our negotiators for weapon procurement should find a new job.

    How can we be so dumb in such important matters? If this is true, clearly it will be time to modernize country political system, as current one will be obviously inefficient.

  3. Haven’t watched the video but sounds like you’re saying they’re still being serviced by experts? I don’t see the issue. The US will always support Poland and if it doesn’t, just post in an American sub and we’ll all harass our politicians. Much love from Murica land.

  4. Lol, of course 😛 Yet google doesn’t return even one hit about Abrams not being serviced in Poland. You realize our facilities are already operational? An official opening ceremony for the Regional Centre for Competency (of Excellence) took place on 20th February 2024 in Poznan, at WZM S.A

  6. Meanwhile PGZ’s WZM and GDLS are already building a maintenance hub in Poznań.

  7. You could at least write in which minute of this ‘show’ they say it so one could verify but when looking for that it turns out to be false…

    >An agreement for the creation of the centre was signed on Monday by PGZ and U.S. tank producer General Dynamics Land Systems, PGZ said.”As a trustworthy partner for the army, we are responsible for supporting units in maintaining the efficiency of each type of equipment that is used by the Polish Army or is starting to be used,” PGZ Chief Executive Sebastian Chwalek said in a statement.

  8. Bullshit, few days ago, on MSPO were signed agreements on opening service centers for engines and tanks. There is a plan to establish a Regional Competence Center for Abrams tanks in Poland. That means that Abrams will be serviced, modernized or even might be made in Poland.

  10. Only youtube page as a reliable source of info?

    Meanwhile on official Polish Army supplyer website:
    *PGZ S.A. concluded with Honeywell International Inc. strategic agreement regarding the construction of service, repair and overhaul capabilities for AGT-1500 engines, which are the power units of M1 Abrams tanks.* ***Thanks to cooperation, PGZ will achieve capabilities enabling comprehensive service, repairs and overhauls of the drive units of M1 Abrams tanks based on the potential of the PGZ Capital Group companies***.

    So it’s rather time to stop spanding too much time only on youtube, I guess.

    E: And to prevent any missunderstanding. Please do not spam my comment with just one tweet from X and expression like *Time to stop buying staff from US for such backstabbing.* Thank you.
