Ammunition in a deficit: how much time Poland can defend in the event of an attack of the Russian Federation

To spread: Polish General Dariusz Lukovsky says that his country will be able to restore military potential to confront the probable Russian aggression due to the fact that Ukraine continues to resist. In the case of potential military aggression by the Russian Federation or Belarus, Poland will be able to keep defense for about one to two weeks without the help of allies. General Dariusz Lukovsky said this in an interview with Polsat News on March 25.

When asked by the presenter, whether the Polish ammunition reserves were really enough for five days of the war, the general replied that it depends on what combat. In particular, the most in the shortage of shells for old technology. "It cannot be said that in all types of combat, we have the same situation. It depends on what combat tools it is, what technique, because we remember that in our army we still have outdated equipment, for which we no longer produce ammunition.

So we have a gift and a gift. " According to General, in the event of a likely attack on Poland of Russia or Belarus before assistance from the Union States will be received, the country will be able to defend themselves for a week or two. "I think, depending on how this struggle might be, this protection could last a week or two for today's weapons," Lukovsky said.

The head of the Polish National Security Bureau also added that his country is currently "delaying this threat" and at the same time increases the potential of the Armed Forces daily. "We hope that during these two to three years, which we receive through the resistance of Ukraine, we will restore our potential that we can really resist Russia's aggression," the general said.
