How would you save the modern German military?
Jesus Fucking Christ
what for? we are a peaceful nation
t. Warmonger nation
the Eurofighters can fly but aren't allowed because there's a security risk and a contractor has problems at the moment
faz.net
also our defense ministry announced recently that our military will be reoriented to territorial defense again
welt.de
>How would you save the modern German military?
Buy Pakistani made tech and hire our techies
stuff will run for ever
especially the techies are good
not even joking
All look the same!
The German military cann't protect an own country.
The machine parts are rag.
The poor armed forces which they're said from the US and can finally update.
sell them many Rafales™
>also our defense ministry announced recently that our military will be reoriented to territorial defense again
>again
That used to be the only reason it exists
hmm what about territorial expanse?
No thanks
Our countries will build a new fighter together
I know, but since the end of the Cold War it was neglected with the anti-terrorist warfare meme used as excuse
Wehrmacht=/=Bundeswehr
Why does Germany even have a military, you'd think they'd have been forced to get rid of it like Japan had to.
>Why does Germany even have a military
because it was useful in case of a Soviet invasion during the Cold War
>you'd think they'd have been forced to get rid of it like Japan had to.
Japan has a military, it's pretty strong too
because russians and murricans wanted to use us as meatshilds in ww3
Cold war. The US wanted us to be able to fight against Russia
how good is mig-21 on steroids? I've even heard they plan a semi-stealth variant of the JF-17
The rotation of Japan is full of aggression nations.
Russia, China, north and south Corea.
don't you south/east china sea?
The reason why the military was revived is that a foreigner acted violently than a sovereignty recovery item.
I know that, I just corrected him
Of course countries like ours should be able to defend themselves too
>Why does Germany even have a military
2% of GDP on defense. As long as security is promised by the Americans, neither them or France will start a war between each other, so it doesnt matter if either have one.
>you'd think they'd have been forced to get rid of it like Japan had to.
Well japan has a military, but it's only used as a means of defense, so in its most barebones of forms, its only sent over away from Japan for aid, but it was of Japans own free will that they declared to never use a military for anything but defense, not the Americans.
and
Reconnaissance from the Russian China increases at the time of every mega earthquake.
provide daycare and pregnancy supporting tanks
Create a Euro Army.
Each member reduces a share of his army and budget and funnels it to the Euro Army.
>Japan
>got rid of military
y-yes, ha-ha.
Germans didn't?
>euro army gets dominated by the french, germans and poles
>all troops moved to easter yurop
>rest of yurop complains about bias
>yurop army breaks up
Why though, there's only self defence forces that is basically cops wearing green and training themselves like soldiers
It's obviously not army
Average Japanese male look like pic related and Japan is hence peaceful
Most shares would be equal and Euro bases scattered around the EU
With Gripen-chan, doesn't afraid of anything and fights for her clay by making filthy russians explode and plumet to their death.
ehhh, i mean, i dunno if polish troops in france or german troops in greece is ok, they might cause a ruckus
gripens are good planes, I will agree to that, sadly burger bullying will prevent her true success
>Only 4 Eurofighter available
Damn, our F-5's have more availability.
how do you feel about the sao paolo's decommissioning?
Conservatives (the government) wanted the army, Social Democrats didn't
It was draining the Navy's money, while the other ships were getting older and older with no replacement on sight, so good. Plus for the types of operations they make today, a carrier was useless. A Heli-carrier is much more suitable for them.
could they not have sold it?
eurofighters are a meme anyways
Idk. They jacked off to that carrier for so long, that i wouldn't be surprised that they are just gonna park there to reform again in a few decades. Just like China did.
>not even joking
that makes it worse
I dunno, will it be relevant in afew decades? It may become cheaper just to buy a new carrier than refurbish her
The thing is of our 3 forces, the Navy are retarded ones. The Army and Air-Force managed to keep things at least decent with what they have, but the Navy is a fuckup after fuckups.
hmm, maybe they could make her like a Latin American carrier? As in everyone funds money for it and the carrier gets sent to do operations inside latin america
Why? There is no use for us, we don't project power on the other side of the planet or anything. Most of their operations are patrolling and rescue, which can be made with a Heli-carrier and OPVs.
well, sure i guess, just i dunno, burgers seem rather insecure these days, i would'nt be suprised if they attempt to ensure their enforcement of the monroe doctrine
>Only 4 Eurofighters available
Mexican Air Force tier availability
LatinAmerica os no threat to anyone but ourselves.
it's not about being a threat, it's about them looking to find one and then use it as an excuse to do their thing
Yeah, that might happen someday, but still, judging by the politicians we all have here, they'll prolly just spread their legs for them.
well good luck i guess
damn, why do yall only have turboprop light fighters? with ur gdp you could afford SU-35s
Our government sees the military as a waste of money
Despite it being forced into every single possible role the civilian authorities have failed at
Congress has blocked every attempt by the air force to renew the fleet of fighters
Even the F5 we got new back in the 80s were only a fraction that the ones we were supposed to field, but congress blocked that as well due to the earthquake in 1985
But there is a time limit of 2020 to have new fighters but I don't know they never replaced our jet trainers/attackers from the fucking 60s
So its just that, no political will
When your neighbor is the world's biggest military power and holds the two biggest airforces, and your other neighbors are meme-tier countries, it doesn't really matter.
I dunno, what if you have to defend against america?
I've heard some burgers about "invading mexico to permanently solve the spic problem" or something like that
We still need it cuz "leader" of latinamerican and all that meme shit.
Well also this
No one can win against the US and even with our current forces we could steam roll all of central america with little effort
Our defence plan against the US is just plain terror tactics guerrilla warfare
On paper it's a good idea. But who get to decide when and where to use it?
You need a much deeper political union for that, a real federal government.
Something unlikely to happen anytime soon.
that sounds like alot of mexicans would die, is that wise?
There's no wise way to wage war against the US if you can't deter their invasion in the first place
Create a Europeanwide Presidency and Council
It will happen someday anyway
Fuck you, you have been trying to implode while taking all of Europe with you since the dawn of time.
There is none, Mexico simply can't fight an American force.
They don't have the budget (or an economy big enough to support a war budget)
They don't have the production power
They don't have a domestic military industry even close to the American one
They don't have the manpower
Finally, they border it.
If they would invest heavily in their military it would be a slaughter no matter what.
If anything their approach is to be on good terms with the US as much as they can. They're not stupid, they know the only possible way to fight a US invasion is through a guerilla force.
Why waste lives?
We have a very high breaking point
But hopefully it will never happen
well i guess..
Lies. We only tried to conquer europe once
>save the german military
They shouldn't even be allowed to exist as a country let alone have any army
shut the fuck up leaf
Why are you so rude?
the last time that happened it cause butthurt and anger that lasts till this day, would it not be wise to prevent such a thing again?
sure but they need some kind of a backup, otherwise people like Trump will continue to push them around
Damn, the end of the Cold War did more damage to Germany's military than the Versailles treaty.
You are trying to implode right the fuck now by importing millions of fake refugees and then trying to hand them out to all of Europe.
This is the modern world, such behavior is very rarely treated with aggression, if we lived in a world where countries went to war because of that, NATO would already be at war with Russia and China.
North America has a lot of trade deals and deals between them, they're not being pushed around as much as you're lead to believe.
Luftwaffe? More like Groundwaffe!
See how peaceful we are?
NATO is much more equal to Russia/China than America is to Mexico right now though
Bodenwaffe
Buy Phantoms
Or Gripens
We just retired our Phantoms in 2011
I agree
>Buy Phantoms
From who?
Buy Tucanos
Sure, but it doesn't matter, politics matter.
buy russian planes
...and wait years till they fix the post-sale.
>buy the aircraft that even in the 60s got BTFO by vietnamese air defense forces and obsolete MiGs
no
Different times
Destroying the Mexican economy would not go well for the US either same as we require a good US and Canadian economy
When we took some Russian planes over from the East German air force we gave them to Poland for free
>Destroying the Mexican economy would not go well for the US
Trump seems to personally think otherwise, that worries me more tbqh
Man I miss the Tomcat, why did they have to replace it with shitty F-35?
dumb leaf
