After 40 years, the #Abrams finally sees combat on the Eastern European plain.

Transfer of Abrams tanks from Australia to Ukraine stalled due to US resistance

Australia pledged to send Kyiv 49 "soon-to-be-retired" #M1A1 Abrams tanks as part of a broader #military aid package in October 2024
A fleet of decommissioned U.S.-made #Abrams tanks that Australia promised to Kyiv has not yet been delivered, in part due to resistance from Washington.

#Abrams quickly replied on social media:
“I’m proud of my work protecting civil rights & lowering energy costs for Georgians,” she said. “Someone has to deliver — because Trump is taking our hard-earned money to cut Elon Musk’s taxes.”

Stacey Abrahams, a lawyer, wasn’t even paid for her advisory counsel role in the related organization.
Nevertheless, #Trump called her out by name in his speech last night—
‘“… and we know she was involved… a woman named Stacey Abrams,” he said. “Have you ever heard of her?”’
(My take: It is fascinating that he called #Abrams out by name. More power to her.)

Serving in an advisory role in a related founding organization, Stacey #Abrams is not directly a part of Power Forward Communities, the group that received the grant through the Environmental Protection Agency’s National Clean Investment fund, which awarded grant money for “greenhouse gas-and air pollution-reducing projects" across the U.S.” as part of the $27 billion allotted by the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022.

The weird mention #Trump made of Stacey #Abrams last night in his speech to Congress has to do with billions of wasted $ the Environmental Protection Agency (through its Trump-appointed leader, Lee #Zeldin ) claims to have recently found. The current EPA has dedicated much government website space to discussing this supposed fraud from Biden’s EPA.
Now Trump’s #EPA is trying to rescind grant contracts it doesn’t like & claw back the money.

Nearly 2/3 of Abrams tanks supplied to Ukraine have been damaged or captured. The New York Times: Drones remained the biggest threat to heavy weapons.

#Abrams #A1M1, da salvatori a salvati
Abrams A1M1 di Washington e #Challenger2 di Londra sono stati distrutti dai missili anticarro #Kornet, dotati di doppia testata: prima sfonda il blindaggio e dopo esplode all'interno. Gli americani e i britannici hanno cambiato idea e, dopo le delusioni della #controffensiva del 2023, hanno chiesto a #Zelensky di rimandare i carri indietro.
#Ucraina, il cimitero dei carri armati. I flop di #Abrams e #Leopard, ma anche dei #T90 di Putin
"Per le forze armate occidentali e i produttori è una pessima pubblicità"

PRESA RUSSA DI #ZORYANE | CONTRATTACCHI UCRAINI VERSO #KURSK
https://youtube.com/watch?v=0COoj5S3v64
L'esercito ucraino sta portando nuovi rinforzi e anche carri armati occidentali (es. #Abrams, forniti dagli #Usa) nella regione russa di Kursk per evitare il peggio. Ci sono scontri molto sanguinosi per la contesa del territorio russo.
Elements of an elite Ukrainian unit armed with #US-made M1A1 #Abrams tanks and #Bradley infantry fighting vehicles are in combat inside #Russia’s #Kursk region, news and official reports said Tuesday.
#Ukraine’s 47th Mechanized Infantry Brigade over the weekend used the American armored vehicles to conduct local counterattacks in a northeastern sector of a salient.
#Ukraine to receive aging #Abrams tanks in latest Australian military aid package.
More than a year after #Kyiv first expressed interest in the aging M1A1 fleet, and months after #Australia rejected a request to donate its grounded Taipan helicopters, the Albanese government has confirmed it will now gift 49 of the American-made tanks.
