The company showed photos of repaired tanks and added that other equipment was being repaired.
The equipment sent to Poland was damaged or disabled during the fighting in the south during the offensive operation.
The deployment of a service center for servicing Western armored vehicles in Poland faced a number of conflicts between the organizers – the German arms companies Rheinmetall and Krauss-Maffei Wegmann (KMW) and the Polish Polska Grupa Zbrojeniowa (PGZ).
Later in the year, poprzez spółkę celową PGZ Sevice Orel, działamy w ramach wypracowanych ze stroną ukraińską relacji, serwisując there on miejscu, blisko linii frontu, sprzęt ciężki. To jasno dowodzi, że naszym priorytetem jest realna pomoc walczącym żołnierzom �� pic.twitter.com/IZPTs1hBHs

Because of this, the opening of a service center for damaged Ukrainian Leopard 2s was delayed from May to the end of July.
In addition, as part of the signed agreement between Polska Grupa Zbrojeniowa and the Ukrainian concern Ukrobronprom, the Polish defense industry has mastered the repair of Soviet armored vehicles.
In particular, in April, the Polish armored plant Bumar-Łabędy began repairing T-64 tanks.
