Reply to comment by crazytrooper in Canada pledges more tanks to Ukraine, imposes new Russia sanctions by Tei-ren

I watched an interview with Anand (defense minister) and she was repeatedly asked how many of our Leopard 2s were in operational condition, but she avoided the question in such a way it was pretty clear the answer would be a small number. I'm all for sending our tanks, but they are only helpful to Ukraine if they are operational and reliable.

Part may be useful as well, but that is tricky and depends on what maintenance they have time todo and what parts are hard to get new '

They would be sending operational tanks.

Last report I remember seeing was that the number was potentially as low as 15.

You can work with Germany to returbish them in the meantime
