More recycled Amerikanski trash. Uncle Sham sells his refurbished 1980 era tanks to fund next generation tank development.
Poland also seems to be trying to beat India into getting the most dysfunctional tank park in the world.

You should have just done like the Turks and license production of the K2 Black Panther tank from South Korea.
When you are getting 500 tanks (between the M1 and the Leopard 2) it is pretty dumb not to use this opportunity to beef up the local industry.
That is about the same amount of tanks as the total number of T-90 tanks active in the Russian Federation.

Silence, you disbeliever!
We already did!
Our brave tank eagles operate 6 different tank types at the moment, hardly compatible
This one would make 7th.
Indians can be considered as the humble ones there

7 types? Jesus...

Which ones?

At least in the summer. Leos don´t like cold weather and the M1 works best indoor.

Those are still in line.
Later, we took some 230+ PT-91 tanks, made locally again.
Next was Leopard 2A4.
Followed by Leopard 2A5.
We have started to reconstruct our vanilla T-72Ms into T-72M1 mod. 2019.
And last but not least, all our Leo2A4 are supposed to be upgraded to Leo2PL standard.
Catching up with versions ?
All of them have hardly anything in common.
But now we are going to introduce a M1.
A tank zoo is humble opinion

Our mighty superpower operates more tanks, than Germany, France and UK combined.
Moscow is ours already, they only didn't notice that!

Holy crap!

That's not a zoo, that's a full sized jungle

Could it be that India bribed Polish government in order to make Arjun Tank look good less shitty?
