（P1：T-72M1）（P2：PT-91）
（P3：Leopardo 2A4）（P4：Leopardo 2A5）
（P5：K2）（P6：M1A2 SepV3）
Durante il periodo della Repubblica popolare polacca, i carri armati in servizio erano T-72M1, molti dei quali erano di qualità relativamente buona. Dopo che la Polonia passò alla democrazia, sviluppò il PT-91 "Resistenza" serie di carri armati principali, una versione modernizzata del T-72. Successivamente, l’esercito polacco si riattrezzò con i principali carri armati basati sulla NATO, tra cui M1A1/M1A2 SepV3, K2 e Leopard 2A4/A5. Questi carri armati utilizzavano cannoni a canna liscia da 120 mm, munizioni fisse e caricamento manuale. Per un paese fortemente dipendente dalle armi del Patto di Varsavia, ciò potrebbe presentare sfide logistiche. Quindi, come ha gestito la Polonia i suoi T-72M1 accumulati?

Straight to Ukraine
They went to Ukraine
Magic.
Scraped, Sold, Lost in Kresy Wschodnie
Yup, as above. All tanks from soviet occupation Times went to Ukraine.
Yeah it seems that the Polish Land Forces are completely aiming to phase out the T-72’s out of service, so soon there won’t be any logistical issues to be had as the entire armored forces be converted into the western standard.
Also we have been getting rid of some of these tanks by selling them to Malaysia, and sending the rest of them to Ukraine.
If we’re talking about each individual soldier getting used to the western tanks, I do not think that would be a problem neither. We’ve had Abrams and Leopards for quite some time, and we’re still in peacetime, so there is a lot of time that we can spend training tank crews on new equipment.
While at first giving up autoloaders seems like a bad choice, western tank cabins are designed to be more ergonomic and comfortable, so tank crews could easily match or even surpass the loading time. In addition autoloaders do face their own problems as well, so we won’t be having any disadvantage in terms of reloading.
Funny stuff is, they have Leo in the field, and troop platoon can’t communicate with the tank because of radios XD Same shitty army like in 1939
A lot of tanks suddenly disappeared near the eastern border. Till this day it is not known what happened.
PTa91 Endurance sounds like it was built for Polish winters more than sand dunes
Poland transfered the vast majority of T-72s to Ukraine. PT-91s are being more slowly transfered to Ukraine as modern tanks replace them
After PZL Wola was shut down, days of T-72 and PT-91 in Polish army were counted. Lack of abilities to produce new engines and spare parts to them killed that two tanks. Not to mention, we lacked modern munitions to 125 mm.
Tank vs Tank combat in Ukraine turned out to be extremely rare so old tanks like the T-72 which cannot penetrator frontaly newest Russian tanks turned out to still have a lot of value on the battlefield.
Then FPV drones become so common on the Ukraina battlefield that tanks become rare again.
A lot of Polish tanks were sent to Ukraine but at this moment tanks are way down on the list of prorities for Ukraine.
If you write to the president with a request, you have a chance to enter the lottery and win a tank. I got one.
“Dear Polish army, can you send me 1 t-72 to my house please”
currently very few T-72’s remain. they are mostly used as part donors for PT-91s. a very large number went to Ukraine alongside some 60 PT-91s.
