Lithuania to Buy 54 New Battle Tanks
Lithuania’s chief of defense, Lt. Gen. Valdemaras Rupšys, said the country will buy up to 54 tanks for its military.
“We are proposing to transform one mechanized infantry battalion into a tank battalion,” Rupšys said, as quoted by local broadcaster TV3.
The defense chief said that relevant recommendations had been submitted to the government. Lithuania plans to create a division-sized unit within its armed forces to operate infantry fighting vehicles and tanks, among others.
