The tanks ain’t showed up yet and I have yet to see any proof these knotheads are getting planes.

I suspect the US tanks have to be modified and the really top secret stuff replaced before sending them to Ukraine, where Russians might capture one.

From what I have read, the tanks they COULD be sent are old ones without advanced armor and currently they need to be rebuilt with non-classified systems in them.

Recently I came across a website that indicated Elon Musk had previously stated that tanks are now obsolete.

I tend to agree with that statement given the offensive and defensive weapons used against tanks that are shoulder fire. A lumbering target made of steel that several shoulder fired weapons can take them out in seconds, that spells obsolescence to me.
