Interesting, now where would they come from - Volodymyr Zelenskyy asks for Australian Bushmaster armoured vehicles in address to federal parliament Roll Eyes

Zelensky wants ScoMo to send him some of our Bushmasters -
Bushmaster Protected Mobility Vehicles -
It looks like we have 1,052 of them -
how many will ScoMo send?

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bushmaster_Protected_Mobility_Vehicle

They weigh 12.5 tonnes each -
you couldn't send many except by ship.

Australian Bushmaster -

I reckon ScoMo will send none of them -
we need them for the Chinese invasion - coming soon.

The Bushmaster could have secret radio equipment inside it that
we would not want to end up in Russian hands -
if any vehicle was acquired by them in a battle.
It could even have equipment that is under export control by the Yanks.

It would also require training to use.

What will ScoMo do?
