The German branch of MBDA announced its readiness to resume production of the Taurus cruise missile

The production of the Taurus cruise missile, which Zelensky has been begging from Germany for quite some time, may be resumed. This was reported by the German branch of the European armory MBDA company.

MBDA Deutschland issued a statement about its readiness to start production of the Taurus cruise missile, and in the short term. In other words, in the near future. It is not yet clear why this statement was made; the German authorities did not express any intentions to purchase any more of these cruise missiles, and the Bundeswehr did not make any statements. It is possible that with this statement, MBDA Deutschland wants to push the German government to make a decision to supply missiles to Ukraine, counting on a new contract.

Moreover, speaking about the possible resumption of production, the company emphasized that it is possible to make the rocket more modern by introducing new technical advances. This, in turn, will preserve the rocket's potential for the next decades.

Today, the Bundeswehr is armed with approximately 600 Taurus cruise missiles, purchased in 2013. True, approximately 150 missiles are in working condition, the rest are not operational for one reason or another. In May of this year, defense expert of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU) Roderich Kiesewetter proposed transferring Taururs to Ukraine, which Zelensky immediately jumped on and began demanding that the German government supply the Ukrainian army with long-range missiles. Despite pressure, German Chancellor Olaf Scholz refused to transfer the missiles. At the same time, it is not excluded that in the end they will still end up in Ukraine.

Taurus Kerd 350/150 (Target Adaptive Unitary & Dispenser Robotic Ubiquity System / Kinetic Energy Penetrating Destroyer) - developed in Sweden aviation a long-range cruise missile designed for high-precision strikes and destruction of highly protected and buried targets without the carrier aircraft entering the enemy air defense zone.

Well... Arms Race 2.0.

[Orange Bigg]

The Germans don’t have their own Gremlin (GZUR) and Zircon, but we have analogues of the Taurus (Taurus) X-59MK2, X-50. So much for the arms race.

[Murmur 55]

dmi.pris 1 , no, I just want the company of dough that my brain can’t even move. The casting is simple, Kyiv hearing that the missiles are coming out of the heat - they are preparing the heat and now they just reach out with a rake and rush to Washington, and the United States will put pressure on Livernaya and voila, the order is gone.

[Lev_Russia]

This arms race, in fact, never disappeared... In the 90s it simply slowed down, but in the 2000s it continued with renewed vigor... But the priorities changed - we were preparing for a nuclear war (Sarmatians, Zircons , Poseidons, Yars, Vanguard), and the West to regional ones (Iraq, Yugoslavia, Afghanistan, Syria, Libya, Lebanon), updating the line of conventional weapons... SVO in Ukraine is a regional conflict with traditional weapons, so now we are simply forced to accelerate the development and produce both old and modernized weapons systems... But why don’t we use our advantage - strategic weapons, where we have an advantage (as our Ministry of Defense claims), at least for intimidation (new nuclear weapons tests), is a big question for me ...

The development of OTKR and TKR never stopped. 90-2000, yes, funding has dried up. But the brains-developers worked. Of course, everything pro-Western was reflected. Nevertheless, today we see complexes that were created precisely in these not the best years. We completed it with the current funding. But there was a start, despite being labeled and an alcoholic!

. The arms manufacturers will have their “delicious pie”... and the government will have the average person, because money doesn’t appear out of nowhere, it’s all a “credit on trust”... on trust and at the expense of the productive forces of the state, those that support and ensure its well-being .

Taking into account the increase in the cost of the product, the manufacturer is ready to pretty much screw all the taxpayers.)))
We need to catch the wave and make money.

This is what Karl Marx described in Capital! A great man in economics.

[Vladlous]

They will deliver the Taurus to Ukraine, and then these missiles will surface from Hamas or Hezbollah, but the Ukrainian Zionist is always the best friend of the Israeli Zionist.

[voyaka uh]

You somehow disguise yourself a little bit.
It is immediately obvious that your posts are paid.

[Michael67]

No... The 404th will be equipped with a Minuteman with a primary combat unit, which yesterday... panicked after the launch. They will test it on rabbits of the 404th territory. But! Russia will be blamed.

[alexoff]

Eh, if only Petrov would come to the head of this company and spread some mustard on him. And Boshirov would have tied a grenade to the quadric and sent it to where these 150 missiles are located...

[Michael67]

alexoff, are you making our plans public? Quite something..? Shhhhh...

[tralflot1832]

Apparently the Air Force has at least four SU 24s. There will be no carriers, there will be no contract for missiles. OOPS!!! This is also a Taurus-

[Revolver]

I can sell as many of these used Taurus to Zelensky as he wants. But only by prepayment, and condition is not guaranteed.

[tralflot1832]

Nagan, Tauras is too chic, maybe look for Taunus! And I’ll make a convertible out of it with a grinder, I can use an axe, I have experience.

[tralflot1832]

Minus sign - if Taunus doesn’t like it, then it will be “Granada”.

[Osiris]

You’re wrong, my friend, a pair of F-16s have already been delivered from Poland to Ukraine, disassembled, so the “carriers” for the Taurus will be

[Andrey “andrewTSO” D]

Hey Russian hackers, your way out! Hurt them! You can

[Michael67]

Military test just for laughing: - Name a rhyme for the word "taurus"? Whoever calls it the way almost everything rhymes in the USSR-RF Armed Forces is an active or potential military man!

[Viktor Sergeev]

Well, yes, who wants war, and who gets money from their budget. Only there is no money.

How is this to be understood? The missiles are ten years old, but they are not operational! And this company wants more contracts with this quality?

[Bayun]

The Germans even have some kind of “tank-like” missiles: quadratish-practish.

[Michael]

quadratish-practish.

[fiv]

They will deliver the Taurus to Ukraine, and the Ukrainians will take it and shoot at Poland, as has already happened. And we will never even know that we will have more heroes of Russia.

[Oleg Apushkin]

The management of the concern has changed, for some reason the percentage of the founders is not available, it may turn out that the Jews got in on it.

[ZovSailor]

I have to say, it is possible that the mattress covers
set a liverwurst mongrel in order to find out the reaction
RF Ministry of Defense and political circles for future supplies

[Zaurbek]

Until supplier countries begin losing people (military) from our weapons in third countries, they will continue to think in comfort about whether to supply or not to supply. Burn down a bus with Krauts, somewhere in Africa....
