Video Fact: Most Expensive Tanks In World On Their Way To Poland

The armament will reach the north-eastern part of the country in the next few days.

The world's most expensive tanks are on their way to Poland's eastern border. Warsaw receives the first batch of weapons ordered from South Korea. Ten tanks and 24 self-propelled howitzers have arrived in the port city of Gdynia.

According to a TSN report, Poland ordered them from Seoul in the summer amid Russia's invasion of Ukraine. The tanks that will be in service with the Polish army are the K-2 Black Panther. They are considered to be the most expensive in the world, with each one costing $8.5 million.

These tanks are capable of reaching speeds of up to 70 km/h, shooting self-directed armor-piercing shaped charge. The armament will reach the north-eastern part of Poland within the next few days.

The current batch is the first; Seoul promises to send another one to the Poles next year, along with ammunition.
