Lithuania has struck an agreement with German-based defence corporation KNDS to buy 44 new Leopard 2A8 tanks of the latest standard. The tanks are to be delivered by 2030, according to the Lithuanian Ministry of Defence.
However, the time frame is somewhat discussed in Lithuanian media. They say it is more likely that judging the payment plan, the first batch of thanks is likely to be delivered by 2029 and the rest not earlier than 2034. | © 2024 Marcel Burger, nordicreporter.com. Featured press photo: KNDS
