Russians don't use BTR-3, except it's captured. ^^ For tanks I saw only T-72B3M and T-80BVM - what is funny, I thought they only wanna use the T-80 series in the REALLY cold regions.

No, Russians still have problem with long rod penetrators bc of the length they can use in autoloader but Ukrainians have very old 125mm 2A46 derivate (KBA-3) and no modern rounds for them. They could have go to former Eastern block countries (Slovakia and Poland) who are still producing higher...

I dunno, in Germany you have several forums too but this forum has attracted people from all the world! :D

Looks like a Belarusian Cayman 4x4.

Hitler was a GB lover. He even liked France and Greece very much. But even without Holocaust intention and all the stuff, I wouldn't have liked that strong Germany. Germany should be a mix of Switzerland, Singapur and Israel. Do trade with all and have no larger ambitions, except own wealth...

Yes indeed. Americans have often a cowboy-mentality. Even against their own (no matter the race).

Not good to compare. Very similar culture, people, religion. It's like Germans would take Austria ... :D Americans and Iraqis = different worlds. Here Brits (which are similar in that regard) with GREAT restraint. Can be lucky that it weren't Saddam, Gaddafi or Assad AFV, the crowd would have...

Israel was important for the US when they had their main interest in this region, especially in the cold war time, as a counterweight to Soviet influence and their usage of the Arabs. It's easier to let Sunnis and Shia slaughter each other, than all Sunnis concentrate on US outpost Israel...

Germany is allowed (by 2+4 treaty) to have 370k troops, not more than 345k in Army/Air Force. They could have 1000+ modernized Leopard 2 and 1000+ Puma IFV and 400 EF Tranche 3A/4, nobody would whine, maybe the Frenchies and Poles... It's German decision. For 499km range rockets/missiles yes...

That's wrong. Russians and Iranians are Easterlings/Rhun. Best fighting force of Mordor! Even when the Gondorians say lay your weapons down because they won the battle of Pelenor Field, they fought and died for Sauron, instead of running like the different Orcs (Turks) who have a...

Let's see, maybe this is an opportunity to depose the anti-German government. Since 1871, the majority of Germans have obeyed the authorities, that's in their DNA. They are like robots. Tell them this, they will. Tell them not to do this, they won't do it. BUT From the point at which the...

"Well ... that escalated quickly."

Sir, if THIS happens ever again I will send you the bill for my keyboard...

There you have the answer, on the priority list was to get a foothold in the region. And never the goal to eliminate Afghans or something like that, otherwise, no Afghans in Afghanistan anymore. A example of GREAT restraint. Saddam, Gaddafi, Assad etc. troops would have massacred the crowds :D...

Jesus. "Lost". Politically. What happened to Saddams Army, 2 times? Even when the Iraqis would have been payed and fed, the Murricans would have crushed them as they did. The Problem is, the Americans aren't the Nazis some people try to potray them here, otherwise, not many Iraqis and Afghans...

No. First problem. Overpopulation and corruption in Syria. Don't make children, when they will not get working place, places to live and enough food. Otherwise don't whine when they starve. Thats a common thing in many countries there, SEA too. But in Syria western sanctions came on top of that...

Thank you man. I had the honor of speaking to an old German veteran who fought in the Balkans and "lived" in Greece during war time with an ordinary non-party family just trying to get on with their lives. Men of his company helped the family with every day struggling and the medic helped when a...

More or less, yeah. 74-76% are to be spent on US made products. It's like Germany gives a discount for Israeli to buy german made u-boats and ships. German public would be very upset if German Gov would subsidized the company directly... Many people don't understand this easy fact.
