German authorities plan to allocate 17 billion euros to strengthen missile defense

The German authorities intend to seriously strengthen the country's missile defense. For these purposes, it is planned to allocate about 17 billion euros, as reported by the American agency Bloomberg.

The material says that Berlin aims to create a reliable, multi-layer air defense, in connection with which negotiations are already underway with various manufacturers of the corresponding systems.



In particular, according to information from Bloomberg, the German authorities plan to spend up to 3 billion on the purchase of IRIS-T systems from the German concern Diehl Defense GmbH. Another 4 billion euros can be used to purchase Israeli Arrow 3 systems. Finally, for 10 billion euros, according to the agency, Berlin is going to purchase American Patriot air defense systems.

The timing of the implementation of the above plans regarding the strengthening of Germany's missile defense, not reported. However, Germany is building up not only defense, but also its attacking potential. Earlier, in December last year, Berlin signed a 10 billion contract with Lockheed Martin for the supply of 35 fifth-generation F-35A Lightning II multirole fighter-bombers.

In connection with the sharp increase in Germany's spending on its armies, as well as reports from representatives of the German government that the creation of a multi-layered missile defense system will form the basis of the all-European initiative "Heavenly Shield", special attention is drawn to the recent statement of the country's Foreign Minister Annalena Berbock, who said, that Europe is now at war with Russia.

      Once again, we have to admit the superiority of the sophisticated mind of the Anglo-Saxons over all the rest and their ability to receive the most significant dividends from this without participating in a bloody meat grinder.

    "The process has begun" --- the Americans have practically achieved one of their goals--scare and tease suckers ... he will float his nemchura to the east, and, as long as there is money, he will buy everything from the states ... however, not only the nemchura fell under the "milking machine" ......

    Germans want to isolate themselves from the outside world, to isolate themselves. So that they do not get bored, do not relax much, Russia should develop its hypersonic weapons

    On the fourth day, the Sharp Eye Indian noticed that one wall was missing in the cell...
    Not only did they chew snot when the US was withdrawing from the INF Treaty, not only did they chirp when the US installed launchers for the Kyrgyz Republic in Poland, but now they are pumping anti-Russia with weapons and are surprised - now ... And we are in sight. .. Is there anything to beat off? Shaw, absolutely?!
    By the way, neither Irises nor Patriots will help you. HOW will you knock down the non-reflecting Geranium with them, which, by the way, will fly to Paris from Kaliningrad? Quasi-ballistic tactics from Iskander? Dagger? None of the listed ones knocks down any of these goals in principle

    Buy American, Israeli and, to maintain decency, dilute with your own. Europe is intensively rearming and re-arming thanks to the conflict in Ukraine provoked by them.
    It is planned to allocate about 17 billion euros for these purposes.
    And Ukraine needs help, so the Germans will have to be patient.

    I'm wondering, did Scholz break away from reality at all? He has already promised to allocate 100 billion for the military. Where? The budget of Germany has been drawn up and it is in deficit. This money can only be borrowed. Where? Who will give? This loan is already hanging. The fall in industrial production is about 30%, inflation in the industrial sector is the same. Germany does not print money - the EU does it, and since the pandemic there has been such a collapse with finances! They, following the example of the United States, simply flood any problem with money. But for the normal functioning of the economy, not only money is needed, but real resources (money is only one of them). They were then bought with this money, and now with this bummer. Germany has cut itself off from our resources, France - from African (Hello to the Wagners!). In my opinion, this is agony. It may last several years, but it is unlikely that Europe will get out without hitting the bottom. For another Renaissance to come, Europe will have to go through another Middle Ages. With all its charms.

      In the autumn, everyone in the comments and articles assured that Scholz and the rest of the frozen euroshobla would crawl by January, beg for forgiveness and suck on the jeeps.

      Now a new trend - MONEY WILL END. Suddenly, 3 economies in the world (we are talking about the EU, and if we take Germany, then she herself is 4 in terms of GDP) will take and run out of money. Interestingly, in the 40th with Hitler, Mussolini and Konoe - after listening to Roosevelt's keynote speech "Arsenal of Democracy", they also thought, they say, where will they get the money for this ??? They barely have a budget there, hunger has not yet been overcome, and they will have to pay for the supply of equipment from the empty American budget.

        Germany, according to NATO rules, needs to spend about $80 billion a year. Until recent events, she spent in the region of 50, and military spending, as far as I know, is combined with social expenses (similar to the expenses of the US Department of Veterans Affairs). If the Germans suddenly get down to business, they will be able to get the army of Korea and the army of Israel combined for that kind of money.

      Where's the money? Take an interest, for example, what is OCCAR. European program for the purchase and production of weapons on credit. When even complete homeless people can arm themselves with super goodies, including FREMMs for example.

    Goals are big. The amount is small. What's this? PR for internal use?
    The author (V. Volkov) should pay attention that if he mentions the amounts
    plans to allocate 17 billion euros
    then the dates should also be mentioned (this year, or for how many years?). It matters.

      The money was already allocated last year and is part of the 100 billion additional military spending that the Germans have agreed to allocate to solve problems with their neglected military.

    Therefore, they don’t want us to go to Europe and see its impoverishment, no one will give them money for military needs, which means they will take it from somewhere, otherwise they are used to spending this money on social programs, they are completely crazy, the hegemon is in danger, and they are repairing roads for doctors well paid, ish you.

    In connection with Germany's sharp increase in spending on its armies, as well as reports from representatives of the German government that the creation of a multilayer missile defense system will form the basis of the all-European initiative "Heavenly Shield", special attention is drawn to
    which in general is also a consequence of SVO ...

    Why do they need both Arrow 3 and Patriot? Both this and this are of a long range with approximately similar performance characteristics (well, the arrow is a little better).

    So Burbock will not only forbid the Germans to wash and warm themselves in order to increase protection from Russia, but tomorrow the bans will reach food. Why eat unprotected, you have to wait until the protection is done, and then you can eat to the fullest. But I’m afraid that with such a drop in income, you won’t be able to build worthwhile protection, and there will be not enough to feed the population without protection.
