Poland Turns into Tank Hub for Europe

The first service center in the EU and the third in the world for American Abrams tanks has opened in Dęblin, Poland. This comes amid Warsaw's massive purchases of these vehicles and other weapons.
As Polish Prime Minister Tusk stated, the country now has the ability to service tanks directly on own territory, whereas previously they would have had to be sent for repairs to the United States. It's worth noting that, until now, such centers existed only in the United States and Australia.
The project cost is approximately $100 million. The opening of the center couldn't have come at a better time for the Poles, as Warsaw had previously purchased 250 of the latest Abrams tanks from the United States for approximately $5 billion. The first 28 vehicles were delivered to the country in January of last year. In addition to the new tanks, Warsaw received 116 used Abrams tanks of an earlier version.
