Damian Posted August 12, 2023 Author Share Posted August 12, 2023 (edited) 1st Company preparing for Armed Forces Day. Also during Armed Forces Day we will be able to see first 4 pre-series Borsuk IFV's in configuration close to the series one. Front of the hull was reinforced. Polish Land Forces are also comparing conventional steel tracks with CRT's. Edited August 12, 2023 by Damian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were able to hear that but not to see very much. Also, Monday evening before the parade I saw at the hotel what could be a Polish lieutenant colonel that I suppose were there to escort a South Korean officer. Could have been also a major general, I only remember two five pointed stars on epaulets and three rows of ribbons in his uniform. Polish national anthem is an interesting piece of music with passionate lyrics: Edited August 18, 2023 by sunday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Damian Posted September 11, 2023 Author Share Posted September 11, 2023 A video from 18th Mechanized Division "The Iron Division". Our M1A1FEP tank crews are already going through training on their tanks, I was also told that Polish Army already is receiving batches of training and combat ammo, including M829A4 APFSDS.

Damian Posted September 17, 2023 Author Share Posted September 17, 2023 (edited) Today at Orzysz-Bemowo Piskie Training Area, I was among many Polish Citizens, observing dynamic presentation of many new weapon systems procured recently by the MoD. This presentation was codenamed "Autumn Fire", I must say it was great to observe it. Edited September 17, 2023 by Damian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
