Ukrainian tank crews arrived in Britain on Jan 29, 2023 to begin training for the Challenger 2 tanks. Prime Minister Rishi Sunak has agreed to deliver a squadron of tanks to Ukraine to aid the country\'s efforts in re-taking territory lost to Russian forces. Four British Army Challenger 2 main battle tanks will reportedly be sent to eastern Europe immediately, with eight more to follow shortly afterwards. On Thursday, defence minister Alex Chalk told the House of Commons the UK would begin teaching Ukrainian soldiers how to use and fix the tanks. He said the intention is for the Challenger 2s to arrive in Ukraine at the end of March. Before then, Mr Chalk said there will be a really significant programme of training, not just for the tank crews who are to operate this vehicle but also for those who will be charged with maintaining it. The US and Germany are also set to also deliver heavy tanks to Ukraine, with other countries such as France also not ruling out tank support, in what could be a pivotal move
