Reply to comment by trekie88 in NATO looking at production of Soviet-era weapons used by Ukraine by sviterochec

Considering the war may last for years that training should be (and to some extent is) underway

Training Ukrainian units is a burden on the Ukrainians. Producing Soviet era weaponry would be a burden on NATO, who is not at war and therefore can more easily take on such a burden. Is probably the thinking

Good thing Ukrainian units are being trained overseas by the tens of thousands with even the Czech Republic today approving opening of training within their country.

The Czech training in particular is interesting because it's for mechanized units.
