Australia to Provide 49 M1A1 Abrams Tanks to Ukraine

17 Oktober 2024

The Albanese Government underlined its steadfast support for Ukraine announcing the gifting of 49 M1A1 Abrams tanks to Ukraine.  This will bolster the Armed Forces of Ukraine in its fight against Russia’s illegal and immoral invasion.

This latest package, valued at approximately $245 million, will add to the Armed Forces of Ukraine’s firepower and mobility, and complement partners’ support for Ukraine’s armoured brigades.

This announcement brings the total value of Australia’s military assistance to Ukraine since the start of Russia’s full-scale invasion to over $1.3 billion, and overall support to more than $1.5 billion.

Minister for Defence Industry and Capability Delivery, the Hon Pat Conroy MP will be at the NATO Defence Ministers' Meeting in Brussels and will be confirming this news directly with his Ukrainian counterpart.

The M1A1 Abrams tanks have been an important capability for the Australian Army, providing substantial defence against enemy fire and improvised explosive devices. As they have done for Australia, the Abrams tanks will see both the capability and resistance of the Armed Forces of Ukraine further bolstered.

As was announced in January 2022, the Australian Army M1A1 Abrams are to be replaced by the M1A2 fleet. To support the transition, the Australian Army will retain a small number of M1A1 Abrams tanks to assist the introduction of the new M1A2 fleet.

The Australian Defence Force also continues to make significant contributions to multinational efforts to train Ukrainian military personnel under Operation Kudu.

The Australian Government will continue to work with the Government of Ukraine and our international partners to deliver meaningful support for Ukraine to end the conflict on its terms.

Quotes attributable to Deputy Prime Minister, the Hon Richard Marles MP:

“Australia’s support for Ukraine has not wavered since Russia’s illegal invasion, and Australia will continue standing with Ukraine.

“This is the latest support package which the Albanese Government has announced, taking our overall commitment support to Ukraine to more than $1.5 billion.”

Quotes attributable to Minister for Defence Industry and Capability Delivery, the Hon Pat Conroy MP:

“We stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Ukraine in their fight against Russia’s illegal invasion.

“These tanks will deliver more firepower and mobility to the Ukrainian Armed Forces, and complement the support provided by our partners for Ukraine.

“As we face a challenging geostrategic environment, it is important that we continue to work together with our partners around the world to deter aggression and coercion and protect the global rules-based order.”

  4. CONTOHI PINDAD - AIR TIMES ........
    Pada Ogos tahun lalu, firma pertahanan Indonesia, PT Pindad (Persero) mencipta sejarah tersendiri apabila berjaya melaksanakan uji tembakan pada kereta kebal saiz sederhana, Harimau. Harimau dibekalkan dengan meriam Cockerill kaliber 105mm. Kereta kebal ini merupakan program kerjasama antara PT Pindad dengan firma pertahanan Turkiye, FNSS.
    Membangunkan Harimau bukan sekadar program sehari dua atau salin dan tampal, sebaliknya menggembleng tenaga kejuruteraan tempatan PT Pindad sejak lapan tahun lalu. Kereta kebal seberat 30 tan ini juga mendapat pengesahan daripada Tentara Nasional Indonesia – Angkatan Darat (TNI-AD) dan bakal memasuki inventori republik tersebut.
    Ini juga adalah secebis daripada kejayaan yang telah ditempa oleh PT Pindad sebagai firma pertahanan bagi kelengkapan persenjataan darat yang unggul di Indonesia. PT Pindad turut dikatakan bersaing untuk mendapatkan kontrak menggantikan kenderaan Radpanzer Condor Angkatan Tentera Malaysia menerusi kenderaan Anoa 6×6. Anoa 6×6 dibangunkan pada tahun 2008 berasaskan kenderaan perisai VAB buatan Perancis tetapi dengan ciri-ciri lebih baik. Kira-kira 14 tahun lalu, Anoa 6×6 juga bersaing untuk mendapatkan kontrak kenderaan perisai bagi tentera pengaman MALBATT di Lubnan yang ketika itu.
    Lain-lain aset yang dibangunkan PT Pindad ketika ini ialah kenderaan taktikal Maung, Komodo dan kenderaan tempur/bantuan tembakan Badak 6×6.
    Badak direkabentuk dan dibina secara usahasama antara PT Pindad dengan syarikat Cockerill Maintenance & Ingenierie SA Defence dari Belgium. Tahun ini, PT Pindad bakal meraikan usia penubuhannya yang ke-41. Walaupun sejarah awal kewujudan syarikat persenjataan ini bermula pada era 1950an, namun secara rasmi tarikh penubuhan PT Pindad dihitung mulai 29 April 1983 apabila ia dimilik negarakan. Pindad adalah singkatan daripada Perindustrian TNI Angkatan Darat iaitu nama yang diperkenalkan pada 1962 menggantikan Pabrik Alat Peralatan Angkatan Darat (Pabal AD) pada 1958.
    Mulai 1983, PT Pindad dijadikan syarikat negara bagi membolehkan ia melangkah lebih jauh dan bukan sekadar mengilangkan senjata untuk pihak tentera. Sepertimana kebanyakan syarikat persenjataan kecil, PT Pindad mengeluarkan senjata secara kebenaran berlesen daripada firma asal selain mengilangkan pelbagai bahan letupan dan peluru untuk tentera Indonesia. Pada tahun 1991, PT Pindad mengeluarkan raifal tempur SS1 yang dibina berasaskan senjata FN FAC buatan Belgium. Selepas 15 tahun, PT Pindad menghasilkan senjata sendiri iaitu raifal tempatan pertama SS2-V 1.
    Kini, senjata yang dihasilkan lebih moden iaitu SS2-V2 HB, SS2-V4 HB dan SS2-V4 A1.
    Sejak tahun 2006, PT Pindad telah menjual senjata ke negara luar seperti Kemboja, Laos, Nigeria dan Emiriah Arab Bersatu.
    Bukan sahaja senjata, malah PT Pindad turut mengeksport peluru kepada Korea Selatan, Singapura, Timor Leste, Laos dan Filipina dengan nilai eksport AS$5 juta setahun.
    Sejak dua tahun lalu, pengurusan PT Pindad meletakkan sasaran untuk syarikat tersebut tersenarai dalam Senarai 100 Firma Pertahanan Global Tahun 2024 dengan menawarkan penyelesaian produk yang berkualiti tinggi serta mempunyai inovasi.
    Hasrat itu dibuktikan apabila Indonesia membentuk satu entiti perniagaan dikenali sebagai Defence Industry Indonesia (DEFEND ID). Bernaung di bawah DEFEND ID ialah PT Len Industri (Persero) sebagai induk dengan anak syarikatnya termasuklah PT Pindad.
    Melihat pencapaian industri pertahanan negara jiran ini menimbulkan beribu persoalan, mengapakah perkara sama tidak berlaku di Malaysia.
    Bukan bermakna kita tiada syarikat pertahanan, tetapi untuk membandingkan pencapaian syarikat pertahanan negara kita dengan di sana begitu jauh kemampuannya.
