New Delhi: Interesting news has arrived from the warzone of Russia and Ukraine . It is said that the United States demanded the return of its Abraham tank, giving Ukraine a unique offer. It is reported that the United States approached Ukraine with a proposal to provide them with four German Leopard tanks instead of one Abraham tank. This proposal to Ukraine was made by none other than US Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin during his visit to Ukraine on November 20th.

US proposal was rejected by Zelensky

The offer was made to Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky by US Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin, who offered 28 German Leopard tanks to replace seven Abraham tanks. Following a visit by the US Secretary of Defense, the Ukrainian army released a video of some Abraham tanks being used in combat which was lying for months earlier. It is said that Zelensky does not support the return of the American tank. According to Zelensky’s advisors, if American tanks fail, the United States could be pressured to supply more weapons.

Reasons for the return of the Abraham tank

General Dynamics, the manufacturer of the Abraham tank, believes that in the current situation the Ukrainian army will not be able to fully use Abraham tanks in combat. The American company believes that the same thing could happen to Abraham tanks when used in street fighting, as happened with German tanks during the Russian army operation in June-July, and their videos were widely disseminated, this could cause serious damage and the reputation of these tanks all over the world. Many military experts believe that American tanks may not perform well in the cold months, and their use in heavy snowfalls will also pose a danger, since these tanks were not designed based on the climatic conditions of Russia and Ukraine. Additionally, there is a danger that the Abraham tanks could be captured by Russia, giving the Russians access to modern technology in these tanks.
