Another batch of armored vehicles purchased in the Netherlands arrived in Estonia

10 CV9035 infantry fighting vehicles purchased from the Netherlands and three support vehicles at the base delivered to the Estonian port of Paldiski tank Leopard 1, transmits Interfax Post press service of the Ministry of Defense.

The press service noted that “purchases were made on the basis of the 10-year program for the development of state defense for the 2013-2022 years”.

“The incoming armored vehicles will be placed at the disposal of the 1 Infantry Brigade based in the military town of Tapa,” the release said.

The equipment will be operated by the reconnaissance battalion, in which crew training has begun this year. The training of personnel involved instructors from the Netherlands and Finland.

BMP CV9035 produced in Sweden at the company BA Systems Hagglunds AB.

In 2014, Estonia bought the 44 BMP CV 9035 and 6 tanks from the Netherlands, which would arrive in Estonia before the end of the 2018 year. The first 12 BMP and one support machine arrived in the republic in October 2016 of the year.

Well, now we can fight on equal terms with Russia. And why not, following the example of the Ukrainian brothers, declare the Estonian army as the strongest in the Baltic states and Scandinavia.

Why should they spend money? , what do they want, with the help of this weapon, to carry out from whom to defend themselves or to whom to attack?

[rocket757]

But shaw, they will now think that they will cease to laugh at them! Can they even notice?
Well, now they will not fit in one elevator and upon alarm at least some part that will not go in that elevator will arrive to their places of deployment TIME!

To no one. They have been collecting them for export since the 90s.

[cniza]

Painfully expensive scrap metal is obtained, but in general this is their business.

[Kleber]

If they counted money, politics would be different.

Victor, during WWII, German pilots on the approaches to Leningrad dropped leaflets for women digging anti-tank ditches: "Russian madam, don’t dig your dimples, our tanks will come, dig your dimples." Probably something like Sprouted in the heads of hot Estonian guys (and their communal neighbors too). But, as they say, on each nut there is a bolt with a reverse thread.

Estonia is becoming the world's largest army antiques museum.

[cniza]

Looks more like a dump.

And in need for NATO soldiers.

The Baltic States will be pan-European latrine anyway.

[Jedi]

And let the three-ballts not complain - they themselves wanted this. So get it and eat it, don’t slap it!

It is necessary to pay less attention to them and they will stall in their swamps and farms.

When someone yells nearby, the subconscious mind turns its head to scream. Yes, and you can’t stop paying attention, they don’t understand that.

And there they will die out slowly, like mammoths.

Such is the lot of all caved in, dialectic, however. In the meantime - another debacle in the piggy bank:

[Going]

Oh, what were the republics under the USSR and what they have now become.

[Jedi]

But the Russian "occupiers" were driven out of their territory.

[Going]

And along with the "invaders" the brains also left.

[Kleber]

I doubt that they were.

[Deck]

"Occupants" both lived there and live, do not live in poverty. This is not Chechnya or Turkmenistan ..
Something I did not see refugees from the Baltic, okrom riot police

[Moscow landing]

They suffer in the soul under the NATO boot. Of course, they miss Russian footcloths terribly and worry that they cannot participate in the Syrian war.

[sibiryk]

I wonder how ...

BMP CV9035 produced in Sweden at the company BA Systems Hagglunds AB.

but purchased

.... in the Netherlands ...

this is what happens, the Dutch earn on "proud" but "independent" brothers in the EU

[rocket757]

I suppose that pushing the SECOND-HAND into the small but proud countries of the allies is a pan-European trend!

The on-board shielding very much resembles the T-5.

[ISSIDOR]

Stirred, they were dishonored well with parades.

[First iron-faced]

So the Dutch are pushing not second-hand, but surplus, after re-equipped one of the motorized infantry brigades from these infantry fighting vehicles on the 8x8 Boxer armored personnel carrier.
CV-90/35 - far from rubbish, and even 1 NATO standard MPB on such BMs near us (44 infantry fighting vehicles, ~ 600 people) - this is not garbage.
