ARD: Against the backdrop of the crisis between the West and the Russian Federation, the Bundeswehr suspended the decommissioning of old weapons

42
Difficult relations between Russia and NATO forced the leadership of the Ministry of Defense and German Land Forces to temporarily revise the rules for writing off old military equipment and weapons, reports RIA News with reference to the German channel ARD.



“From now on, until further disposal, usable military property will not be written off,” the document said, which was at the disposal of journalists.

The German command notes that the ground forces are currently equipped with 70% weapons only, so as long as no new military equipment is delivered to the units, the old ones will not be disposed of and sold.

According to the channel, we are talking about "weapons systems, vehicles, weapons"technical equipment that the army may need to complete tasks." The manual explains this order as “the situation in the field of security policy in Europe”.

As the journalists noted, “the relations between Russia and NATO that have become tense again are implied.”

Earlier it was reported that the Bundeswehr intends to modernize and put into operation 100 decommissioned tanks Leopard 2, having spent € 22 million on this

      "The write-off was suspended ..." Of course! There is someone to shake off and there is someone to pay. Until Ukraine is banned from selling this scrap metal (they are ahead of the rest of the world in this) everything will go there. Business and nothing personal.

        Nate. Against the background of many post-war tanks "Tiger" looks quite good. Just ask your Israeli colleagues how many years their army rode on German tanks after the formation of Israel.

          Yes, ask your Israeli colleagues how many years their army has rolled on German tanks since the formation of Israel.

          In the course, "mother wrote." But the Germans have a lot of equipment in the storerooms and the equipment is quite suitable. Aside from Leopard 2 (hardly anyone would be tempted to call it an unusable tank), the Germans had extensive plans to write off hundreds of Marder 1 infantry fighting vehicles, which seem to be canceled. If this article gives someone a reason to amuse their patriotism, then you should not do this on a specialized military website, it looks stupid ...

      How and where will they go ... the armies of the former great powers of Europe have long been built according to the principle "we will help the US Armed Forces a little" within the framework of NATO (perhaps, except for France). they themselves cannot go anywhere. neither for political "attachments" nor for military necessity.
      And 100 tanks to be repaired - they were simply lobbied by gunsmiths. grandmothers love everything ... and an occasion appeared ... 2 tank battalions, of course, will save from Russia ... one - no, and two - yeah wassat

      -----------------------
      Without the United States, German troops will never go anywhere, Europeans do not have developed command infrastructure for a full-scale war ... Even the bombing of Libya even required the entire command structure of NATO satellites, ACS, radars, command posts and all that is in the hands of the United States. .

    Well, if the Bundeswehr lacks weapons and b / t, then Ukraine should not rely on European military equipment. While they helped Ukraine and "fought" with immigrants, they themselves were almost without pants.

    Still, it’s now WHAT a budget officer can begged for all this. Even if you don’t buy a new one, but this old one needs to be repaired and modernized.

    "Drang nach Osten" - ("Drang nach Osten" - "Onslaught on the East"), which arose in the early Middle Ages, the German expansionist concept of colonization of the eastern lands, the first conductor of which was Charlemagne (742-814). In the IX-X centuries. the main direction of the aggressive policy of the German princes was the Austrian one. Later, the northeastern lands of the Slavs were subjected to violent colonization. Emperor Wilhelm II (1859-1914) extended the traditions of his predecessors to the Near and Middle East, as well as to the North. Africa.

    Following the geopolitical theories of Karl Haushofer, who considered the eastern direction of expansion to be the most acceptable for Germany, Hitler in his book "Mein Kampf" in the chapter "Orientation to the East and Eastern Policy" made it clear that in the event of coming to power, he intends to revive the ancient spirit "D. n. o. " and follow the path of the Teutonic Knights east. It was a mistake, he wrote, to pursue a colonial trade policy in all directions. First of all, it is necessary to conquer new territories in Europe itself: "It would be more correct to strengthen the continental might of Germany by acquiring new territories in Europe, and then supplement them with colonial territories within the framework of natural possibilities." At the same time, Hitler referred to "the moral right of the Germans to acquire foreign territories and lands." As a justification for this right, he cited the following arguments: the population growth in Germany reaches almost 900 thousand people annually, it is becoming more and more difficult to feed the "army of new citizens", and this can lead to "hunger and impoverishment." "If the German people were racially monolithic, the Reich would have become the ruler of the globe today." Promises that all German conquests would be carried out in the name of peace were repeated in the 30s, when Hitler, becoming Chancellor of the Third Reich, justified his aggressive policy on the need to save and strengthen peace. Hitler believed that wherever there is at least one German, the Reich has the right to join with its army in order to "embrace its borders" and this German. "We demand territories and colonies in order to feed our people and settle our surplus population there." In "Mein Kampf" the thesis that the struggle for "living space" is a more important task than the restoration of the pre-war borders of the Reich is obtrusively repeated. Pointing to the East as the main direction of German expansion, Hitler rejected the continuation of the cooperation between Russia and Germany that existed during the Bismarck era. "We, the National Socialists ... will suspend the endless migration of Germans to the south and west and turn our gaze on the lands located in the east ... Speaking today about the living space in Europe, we can basically mean only Russia and its vassals border states. Fate itself shows us this way. "

    The material of the Encyclopedia of the Third Reich is used.
