The French to the rescue? French older light armor vehicle [LAV] being sent to the Ukraine.
Not a main-battle-tank. A wheeled armored combat vehicle better referred to as a "light" tank?
"France to Deliver Light Armored Vehicles to Ukraine"
From VOA News January 05.
"France announced it will send light tanks to Ukraine, a French official said on Wednesday after a phone call between the two countries’ leaders."
"French President Emmanuel Macron told Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy that France would send light AMX-10 RC armored combat vehicles — a light tank model the French military has used since the 1980s but is being phased out — to help its war effort against Russia, the official said."
See this You Tube video an excellent description of the AMX-10 RC:
