Along with the tanks, the USA will train the Ukrainian military and provide spare parts as soon as possible. On 25 January, US President Joe Biden confirmed his intention to send 31 M1 Abrams tanks to Ukraine, equal to one Ukrainian battalion, to strengthen its defence capabilities against the backdrop of Russian aggression. M1A2 Abrams has more advanced optics and a control system than the A1, which allows for more accurate targeting, and a separate thermal imager for the crew commander, which allows for independent identification of targets in any weather and battlefield conditions.Īlso, the new modification of the tank contains digitised control mechanisms, which allows them to continuously and automatically exchange information, quickly track the location of friendly machines, identify enemy positions and process artillery requests. "I think it's certainly not a symbolic commitment, it is a commitment that we're in for the long term, we're in it for what Ukraine might need on the battlefield in the coming future and then further out in the future," Singh added. Only the latest news, only the facts, only the truth. She also commented on the complaints that appeared in the media about the allegedly small number of American tanks. 
We are trying to get the training set up, but I can not say where that's going to be and when, I just don't have that available at this moment," she said. "In terms of how soon, I just don't have a timeline for you. She also said that it has not yet been decided where the Ukrainians will undergo training on the tanks.
