About 250 Ukrainian servicemen will be trained. Some will learn how to drive tanks, while others will learn how to repair and maintain them.

At today’s meeting of the Contact Group for the Defense of Ukraine in the Ramstein format, it was decided that the training of Ukrainian fighters on American Abrams tanks will begin in the coming weeks. It was reported by the Associated Press.

It was learned that by the end of May, 31 tanks will arrive at the Grafenwehr training ground in Germany.

“The Ukrainian military will start exercises in a few weeks. These exercises will last about 10 weeks,” the source said.

It is reported that the exercises will not take place with the tanks that the United States will transfer to Ukraine. The United States is already updating M1A1 tanks to send the Ukrainians to the front lines.

According to the source, the idea is for Ukrainian troops to be trained by the time the updated tanks are ready and able to carry out combat missions. These machines were re-equipped to meet the needs of Ukraine.

It is expected that about 250 Ukrainian servicemen will be trained. Some will learn how to drive tanks, while others will learn how to repair and maintain them. After the first 10 weeks, additional studies can also be performed.

Earlier, a senior official of the US Department of Defense said that the training of the Ukrainian military on American Abrams M1A1 tanks should begin “relatively soon.”

It will be remembered that in January, US President Joe Biden officially announced that Washington will transfer Abrams tanks to Ukraine.

American media reported that Abrams tanks will be delivered to Ukraine only at the end of 2023 or at the beginning of 2024.
