The aim of this paper is to compare the technical support system for basic armoured equipment already used by the Polish Land Forces with the new, purchased equipment, and to adapt this system to current conditions and needs. The discussion particularly concerns the tank Leopard 2 A4/A5, whose maintainability and vulnerability under repair stems from a different, non-post-Soviet, armoured equipment engineering design philosophy. The use of the abovementioned equipment triggers changes regarding the organization and personnel structure of technical maintenance units on each procedural and instructional level of command.
