New tanks arrive in Hungary
Another three high-tech Leopard 2 A7 tanks have been added to the Hungarian army heavy brigade, the defence minister said on Tuesday.
The ministry cited Kristóf Szalay-Bobrovniczky as saying that three of the world’s most modern tanks were arriving on Tuesday. As a result, the Hungarian army heavy brigade fleet would be expanded to include eighteen tanks, he added.
Szalay-Bobrovniczky said that the introduction of the Leopard 2 tanks into service marked a new era in the development of Hungary’s military force which he said was progressing as planned.
A total of 44 such high-tech tanks are set to be delivered to Hungary by 2028, he added.

This is great. If tanks, weapons are lent or given to any country, it should be Israel.
