Czech army to acquire Leopard 2A4 and 2A7 tanks after giving its T-72s to Ukraine
Citat:According to what Soňa Fialová published in ekonomickydenik-cz on May 16, a proposal to acquire German Leopard tanks may be coming to the Czech government this week in the framework of a donation procedure of its own T-72 tanks to Ukraine. The Minister of Defense Jana Černochová and her team managed to negotiate a variant in which the Czech Republic will receive from Germany a donation of 20 Leopard 2 A4 tanks and will buy 40 Leopard 2A7 tanks.
Citat:The economic daily obtained this information from government circles, Soňa Fialová writes. The scheme of the proposal is as follows: the Czech Republic will receive about a third of the tanks free of charge as a gift; the other two-thirds will be bought. The gift should contain Leopard 2 A4 tanks. Although this variant is not the latest (Leopard 2A7), it is comparable or even surpasses the Czech modernized T-72M4 tanks which are now undergoing repairs at VOP CZ and, hence, are not combat-ready. According to the Military Balance 2021, the Cech army as got 30 T-72M4CZ in service, plus 89 T-72 in store. Thanks to the donation, the Czech Army will quickly acquire a functioning tank force.
This should be followed by 40 Leopard 2 A7s, the most modern version used by the Bundeswehr, which was also bought by the Hungarian and Danish armies. These tanks should be manufactured in cooperation with KMW, the original producer of the Leopard tank, and Czech defense industry companies, Soňa Fialová writes.
