Reply to comment by AdminsAreLazyID10TS in Germany Agrees to Send Leopard 2A6s to Ukraine by For_All_Humanity

A tank company (14 tanks) means about 250 soldiers who will no longer have their main weapon system. It takes years to fill those gaps, and by then these soldiers have forgotten a lot because they haven't been able to practice. One has to remember that even if Ukraine is completely pushing Russia out of its territories, it does not mean that Russia is no longer a threat in the future.

You're not wrong, though fortunately for them they have an ally with 6,000 functional tanks to their 300 if they need training.

Or maybe Germany should lease them some crews too to have a tank corps with some real experience.
