For two years, the Minister of Defense of Germany saved on the army about € 2 billion

In Germany, the scandal is becoming more and more intense due to the unsatisfactory state of the material and technical base of the army. This situation was the result of unreasonable cost savings, reports ITAR-TASS with reference to the Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung.

"This year 4,4 billion euros was pledged in the budget of the Federal Republic for defense, but of this amount 400 million are not expected to be spent. Last year, the amount of funds released was even more impressive - 1,6 billion euros"- the newspaper writes.

Under heavy pressure from the deplorable state of technology, the head of the Ministry of Defense, Ursula von der Lyayen, was forced last week to request the government to increase spending on the needs of the armed forces.

Meanwhile, at the end of September, German publications quoted the Minister of Defense as saying that the Bundeswehr was unable to fulfill a number of obligations to NATO. Among them - the allocation for the needs of the 60 alliance fighter "Eurofighter-Typhoon."

According to a report on the state of military equipment published by the 25 media of September, “from the 406 infantry combat vehicles Marder (Marder) on the move now only 280, from the 180 GTK Boxer armored personnel carriers - 70, and from the 31 helicopter” Tiger "(Eurocopter Tiger) can only fly 10".

In addition, factory defects were revealed in Typhoon fighters. It turned out that “manufacturers (BAE Systems, Airbus, and Italian Alenia Aermacchi) made mistakes when drilling many holes on the back of the fuselage,” the Defense Ministry said.

The German Air Force is armed with the 109 "Typhoon", but only 42 vehicles are in combat readiness.

And it’s interesting, she also, like our Vasilyeva, bought the money saved?

[Giant thought]

Let him now take a capitalist commitment in the next two years to save three billion euros.

It’s unlikely that, apparently, our Vasilieva will give her a hundred points of handicap ....... nevertheless, even such a genius for mastering the budget as the Taburetki gang of greedy women - yellow chickens compared to the real geniuses of budget development - by their Pentagon colleagues which, according to American data, steal over two hundred billion green money annually. The American control and auditing authorities note the theft of trillions of dollars in the Pentagon and shrug their hands, saying they’re finding the guilty in no way ... and nothing, nobody with a beautiful bracelet on a thick leg draws wild pictures and scribbles breathtaking rhymes ... :)))
In general, even if we grit our teeth with powerlessness, seeing that the Taburetka gang escaped with a slight fright, we can at least be comforted that most of the neighbors in this case are even worse and we are nothing more against their background ... :)))) and what else remains? :)))

No matter how you say it, their financial statements are stricter. It’s another matter that during informal negotiations they could throw this money at ... Well, let’s say on the social network or avoiding the negative consequences of sanctions, or at all to help Ukrashka.
And Vasilyev publicly burn. If only I would give this money to orphanages or homes for the disabled. It’s bad when egoists are in power.

This is not zilch, this is the Minister of Defense by profession a gynecologist. We had a furniture maker, their gynecologist - the result is almost the same. The only difference is that our pocket worked .............

[schizophrenic]

So it’s easier for the Germans to refuse assistance to NATO troops.
The excuse is simple, the technique is worn out. Please support the Germans, because how much money will be saved, and joint operations with NATO forces will not work.

"Boxer" is considered to be the best modern wheeled armored vehicle - and in three years they lost more than half of them ...

Well yes, well yes, stricter. :))) It is a myth. When the U.S. audit authorities say it seems. since 98 (too lazy to search) in the Pentagon, trillions of dollars (infa open, easy to find even in pedagogy - with reference to the sources of the same Pentagon) spent the wrong way (the same misuse, for example, to buy toilet bowls in Iraq for several thousand bucks - it’s about the same as Vasilyeva’s), and two trillion in general have disappeared without a trace, then the bish stupidly stolen without trying to veil, then the severity looks clearly pretentious. :)))

[g1v2]

Over the past 20 years, according to journalistic investigations of Western media, the Pentagon could not report for 8,5 trillion dollars, and this is half of Amer’s foreign debt.

[Iline]

Well, at least we with our Serdyukov are not alone ahead of the rest.

They drilled holes there. We should have their problems

What scary numbers!
The only terrible thing is the popular expression "there will be no air support - the pilot is sick"

[wolf7]

And this is the vaunted German ordnung !?

[MIV999]

German Minister of Defense ... saved

If the famous Bismarck could read this - in a coffin would roll over ...
And not at all because of savings, as you understand ... And due to the fact that German Minister of Defense - SHE IS

[panfil]

Here you have the Minister of Defense in a skirt. About how a cook will rule the country. In such positions should be professional military. But we are only getting better from such news. If there were more such defense ministers in Europe!

Let’s offer them Vasilyeva for the post of some financial director in all of NATO. It will be possible to open a tote on the topic of how soon the financial budget of NATO will decrease significantly.

[Svetlana]

Guys will soon completely degenerate there. It seems that they are undergoing a process of naturalization. Bab more and more in high posts.

[Azim77]

I wonder if she has a husband? And how does he feel about her? And who is washing the dishes? She gives him a ride in tanks? Play elephants?

[bekjan]

he who will not feed his soldiers and provide for his army will surely feed the conquering soldiers and pay tribute to the conqueror.

We will not criticize the Bundespravitelstvo, even if they save as much as possible

Surprisingly accurate remark

The Germans have been feeding the American army for almost 70 years.

[bvi1965]

That is, according to the NATO theory of the US?

[predator.3]

Minister of Defense Ursula von der Leyen

Well what can I say, we wish you success in further savings!

[andrew42]

This is how Germany is already feeding the foreign army (USA). And he pays. There are many more indirect types of payment than just contributions for NATO needs, that is, the needs of the United States. The excuse that the Americans "protect from Soviets" is more and more like an anecdote. I think the Germans understand this, but they can’t wriggle out. So many things are tied.

[s30461]

What are you saying! Profitability, it can be said, is the main indicator of the power of the armed forces. The less they spend on the Army, the stronger it is. In Somalia, there is no such thing as an Army budget, but no one is in a hurry to meddle with their army. Maybe Germany decided to take the same path?

[smile]

s30461
No, no, no, we don’t need the Germans to follow the path of Somalia. Imagine the Baltic, the center of Europe .... and wild dark-skinned half-naked Germans climb crashing boats with rusty Kalash and kitchen knives on passenger ferries ... holy-holy .... let them have a normal Army ... :) )))

[roman72-452]

If they do not want to feed their army, then what happens is that they feed someone else's, American in return, not having the right to an independent policy beneficial to their country.

[Oleg Sobol]

Okay, okay, two grandmothers "ruled" ...

Now these grandmothers on a tour of Europe, let them give lectures on how to save money. After Europe, to the states, and to stay there longer.

More Europe women in the commanders. Dumb and scary, and we do not need to fight with them. Healthy men will run away, and only geykhloptsy will remain.

“The manufacturers (BAE Systems, Airbus and Italy's Alenia Aermacchi) made mistakes when drilling many holes ...

Hmm ... In such MONSTERS, and such a MARRIAGE ...

... only 42 vehicles are on alert.

These facts, of course, are encouraging, because NATO’s combat readiness is declining!
But in general, this suggests that this lady is not sitting in her chair.

[Buran]

I kept thinking that Angelka at first seemed to have a normal attitude to Russia, but then she fell off the chain. Yes, here's one German friend told a little. During her stay in Germany, she "buried" nuclear waste in abandoned mines. But either the containers will collapse, or the mines will be heated. In general, to get them from there, you need 6 billion euros. And it was not in vain that the Americans listened to her incriminating evidence in the form of kickbacks or something similar to her.

[pensioner]

The German Air Force is armed with the 109 "Typhoon", but only 42 vehicles are in combat readiness.

Those. as if to save more reserves ... The struggle for economy will be held under the motto: "Give 2 battle-ready Typhoons!" . Why 2? One - somehow not seriously ...

[ia-ai00]

Correctly, remember?: - "The economy should be ECONOMIC!"

And for the money saved, these handbags will be bought by Frau)) And shoes, where without them ..

Faithful path go comrades! soldier

But you can not stop there! I propose that the Ministry of Defense of Germany think about another way to save the budget, which in large companies gives good results. Namely, the transfer of the army to outsourcing. Why pay dear European contractors when five more Chinese can be hired for the same money? Well this is what a benefit to the budget of Germany will be ...

In Germany, a scandal erupts more and more due to the unsatisfactory state of the material and technical base of the army

[Viktor Kudinov]

Hungry, bloated German troops, wrecked and incapable equipment - this is what Germany brought to perestroika, Gorbi, Russian nesting dolls and crazy German economy on everything. This is normal for Ukraine, but for Germany, such a low combat readiness of military equipment is a serious misunderstanding.

[Roll 8R]

But an even greater misunderstanding is Germany’s participation in the EU.

It turns out that Germany has its own Serdyukovs

Serdyukovs are everywhere. In the Island Empire, Serdyukov almost drank nuclear AB (once again, the last CVA-01 in the 70s also fell under the onslaught of the crisis).
But, to the great regret of the politicians, this time their lordships were safe - the amount of penalties prescribed in the contract for refusing to build the AB was more than the cost of construction.

[andrew42]

Yes, and there were times when the 12 German divisions were taught as the most powerful component of the NATO ground forces in Europe. Well, do not flatter yourself. The economic opportunities of the European Union with the right pendell will easily and quickly put their aircraft at the right level. Even statistically, the balance of power between NATO and Russia today is far from in Russia's favor. And if you pull yourself up qualitatively, then ... it will be hard. On the other hand, it seems that Russia should not lose local conflicts, but from a large-scale clash ... nuclear weapons and the cowardice of the average European help us. The main thing - do not click the beak yourself, and pump up the military-industrial complex, gaining momentum. The situation is similar to the end of the 40s. With the difference that if we put aside nuclear deterrence, our position is weaker (due to internal structure) and the lack of allies in the SVD, but the opponents are no longer the same, and there are other games like China. You can giggle, but you must not waste time. Without strengthening the role of the state in the economy, they will devour us.

It turns out that the Bundeswehr is in the state of Ukraine’s Zbroinny forces, it’s also worn out and abandoned ...

We will restrainedly rejoice and continue the normal re-equipment and training of our army. One must not be the best among the worst, but the best of the best. Let Europe save, be wise and learn from their mistakes. Savings on combat training do not bring to good, proved by the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation From 1992 - 2012. Everything is bare enthusiasm and beyond normality.
