sorry may post pa
if Germany's hesitation in sending tanks to Ukraine isn't because they're afraid it could ruin their relationship with Russia...
why do they have to say this?

February 2nd, 2023 08:15 AM #154Yes Germany is hesitant in delivering Aid to the Ukranians....pls see chart below.
Here is just a few things they have given off the top of my head:
1. Patriot batteries
2. IRIS-T sam systems .... these two are just one of the most lethal and effective AA missile systems in the world. The ukranians themselves have said the Iris-T system has a 100% success rate hit rate. Do you know how many lives and infrastructure that has saved? Sadly ukraine is so large you need dozens or hundreds of these batteries to fully cover everything.
3. Gephard twin auto cannon anti aircraft ...extremely useful against shaheed drones of Iran
4. Marder APCs
5. Armored cars
6. Anti tank missles stocks TOW etc
7. Anti aircraft manpads
8. 155mm tracked howitzers and ammunition
9. MLRS
Am sure there are dozens more . Hesitation in delivering MBTs doesnt mean they are owned by the USA. Even the USA was hesitant. The french havent done it. Only the UK was the first in line with Challengers.
Dont mistake strategic caution as puppetry.

February 2nd, 2023 08:31 AM #157Germany and France are the de facto leaders of Western Europe. They arent vassals to anyone. Aligned goals, security interests, seeking energy independence and supporting a brave country that was invaded by a beligerent super power neighbor is not vassalhood.
The Americans cant even own congress straight for 2 elections but yet they own Germany. Sure.

February 2nd, 2023 08:32 AM #158China must be bitter it doesnt have vassals yet.
US bases in both theatres are mutually beneficial. If you think the security umbrellas they provide are immaterial to those countries then i have something to sell you.
