Poland donates armament to heroic Ukraine

[Bonobo]

Poland is the second largest weapon supplier to Ukraine, after the US.

The biggest Polish supply so far has been 236 old T-72 tanks which, although largely obsolete, can still play a role in Ukraine coz both sides use similar vehicles.







Another big supply was 18 modern self propelled howitzers Krab (Crab), recently produced by Polish industry.




Ukrainians ordered 60 more Crabs.

Next supply was anti tank unguided missiles called Komar/Mosquito - thousands of them.
On April 12, a video appeared on Ukraine Weapons Tracker on Twitter, showing the RPG-76 Komar anti-tank grenade launcher in the hands of a Ukrainian soldier. "Another gift from NATO: Ukrainian troops are training with the newly delivered RPG-76 Komar, produced in Poland in large numbers during the Cold War. Although they are not very effective against modern Russian MBTs (MBT is a main battle tank, in English) main battle tank - ed. ), but they prove themselves in the fight against structures and light armor "- we read in the entry.

Funny situation when Russians captured one launcher and tried to read the Polish instructions:

The Belarusian portal NEXTA published on Twitter a recording of Russian soldiers who fell into the hands of the Polish RPG-76 Komar anti-tank grenade launcher. The Russians, trying to read the manual in Polish, decided that it was written in Ukrainian, but with a Latin alphabet. They said it was the Americans' doing.

- Interesting. The Americans wrote (instructions - ed.) In Latin letters in Ukrainian - says the man who recorded the whole situation.

The recording shows him bending over a grenade launcher and trying to read the instructions written in Polish.

The recording is not of the best quality - there are no letters on the white sticker on the grenade launcher. For a moment, however, you can see a yellow sticker with a Polish inscription that you can read. He says: "Here hold your hand."

- "Preparing to shoot" ... "Attention" ... Aha! "Keep your ears closed before shooting" - he reads Polish words, speaking with a Russian accent and pointing to the next illustrations that explain how to use a grenade launcher.

- American. It was yours, it is ours - says the man whom the NEXTA portal called "not very wise Russian soldier".

People who commented on the entry recognized Aleksander Sładkow, a Russian war correspondent, who reported, inter alia, events related to the Chechen wars and the war in Syria. "If this guy really thinks he's a war correspondent, he's doing his job very badly because he doesn't know such elementary things as the fact that not only the United States supplies Ukraine with weapons," comments NEXTA.
