  1. Cost to performance is a different story. The bundeswehr is horribly inefficient. What other military spends 135 million Euros on a wooden sailing ship 🪵 ⛵ Or takes over 11 years trying to evaluate a helmet 🪖 They spend way more then France already and have way less equipment and personal.

  2.  @MiddleKingdom305  with the bundeswehr you get neither. Most systems are kept in small numbers and don't receive matinance. The rest are old soviet era equipment they refuse to throw away. Having a bunch of different gold plated solutions and soviet equipment makes upkeep a nightmare in runoff costs. They can barely form 1 battalion since most equipment is broken and too expensive to fix.

  5. Apparently russians steal a lot of Ukrainian underwear exactly for that reason. They also steal a lot of toilets.

  6.  @tonyvu2011  i doubt the bundeswehr can go from spending 9 years and 135 million euros to procurement efficiency over night. They've tried before and they spend all their budget on gold plated solutions that take a long time and lots of money 💰 they usually give up a few years in. There's a good perun video on Germany 🇩🇪 . Not trying to hate on Germany but I don't think they are in a position to be very helpful with military equipment any time soon. At least not the bundeswehr. German manufacturers would be better off servicing a purchase order from ukraine then the bundeswehr. bundeswehr is the world king 🗺 🤴 of red tape and bureaucratic nonsense 🏬 🏢 German companies make some of the best military equipment around. The bundeswehr on the other hand wastes their budget servicing a huge stock pile of old east and west German equipment and takes around a decade to approve new things

  7.  @fluseint.1303  it comes from photos.... you can even see them using bolt action rifles 🔩 ⚡ Are you saying you haven't seen the photos and video's of russians using BMP-2 and BMP-1? or their use of old school grad rocket systems from the 50s? 🚀
