So UA is getting the ones that were slanted to be delivered to the BW?

I have no idea. Never the less the systems are not existing yet and need to be build first.

Also, the Poles are accusing DE to have broken their word on delivering Leo 2A4 in Ringtausch.

Again it is a little more complicated. Germany wants to deliver Leo2A4, A5 or A6. Since these are available. But the Poles are insisting on getting A7V. Which also don't exist yet. At least not in the required numbers. The fight is about a formulation. The Germans promised modern weapons if the Poles deliver Soviet era equipment to the Ukraine. Now the Poles want the most advanced possible. Which not only is impossible because these are not available and the Poles new that it is also not what its about. Its not abou the Poles delivering legacy trash to UA and getting the most advanced equipment for free in return. The Leo2 A4 and A5 are an adequate replacement. But they want more.

Csis is wrong. So are all the other lazy sources that call everything a ballistic missile without caring what words mean.

1. it doesn’t follow a ballistic path.
2. the boost-sustain rocket burns for the entire flight.
3. the sustain thrust is, I suspect, very small - just enough to count.

ATACMS is basically designed to not quite be restricted by treaty. It’s the Washington treaty battleship of battlefield missiles.

Thanks for the update. Neat thing about the Norinco M14s; apparently they have case hardened receivers. Several gun magazines in the US reported a little resistance then soft receivers during tests. An engineer wrote into one magazine noted the Chinese case-hardened a lot of tools you normally wouldn't, and it sounded like that's what they did.

Ridiculed at the time, but this German helmet saved this guy from shrapnel:
