“We could deliver at least one battalion in the first four months of this year in a year, maybe in three months, and then we have to move as quickly as possible,” Pistorius said.
A tank battalion usually has three dozen tanks in the countries of the former Eastern bloc, including the Czech or Ukrainian armies. In Western armies, a tank battalion usually has 44 Leopard 2 tanks.
