POLAND: The sale of the M1A2C (SEP V3) has apparently been approved pending sign off by the President.
Don't get too excited, Para 5 will put that into perspective...
"Implementation of this proposed sale will require approximately (22) U.S. Government and (52) U.S. contractor representatives
to travel to Poland for a duration of up to five years to support equipment fielding and training. "
1. These tanks will have to be built without adversely interfering with our current Army production requirements.
2. These same tanks will have to BE
RESET to replace our more advanced electronics (FCS etc.) and have the
DU armor removed
and replaced by either with an
Applique or
Ceramic armor package, normally of the foreign sales
end user's discretion.
3. I would expect that a
foreign sale M1A2C (SEP3) armor package would "
fall in" about where the USA
M1A2 SEP armor package is. Also
TI/GSR 45 would make sense as well.
This will take time. We are
HIGHLY unlikely to see Poland getting these
fielded before
DEC 2025.
