Germany wants to buy Arrow 3 missiles from Israel to defend against Russian ICBMs. Cost at least 2 billion euros.
Why is Germany the only EU/NATO country considering this?
Are all other countries stupid and defenseless or is it - my assumption - just Germany's inherent desire to transfer money to Israel?

>Why is Germany the only EU/NATO country considering this?
Because it's cucked.
That is the most based thing I've seen all week.
back to their roots I see
>swing door with bike lock
just as fake as the last time.
kek, where is this from?
Probably from Tatort or something.
Despite the memes, Germany and Israel have pretty good relationships and the BW also buys a lot of stuff from Israel. Are you mad they aren’t giving the money to mohammedians?
>Germany and Israel have pretty good relationships
yes, because the relationship consists of Germany buying overpriced weapons from Israel and Israel buying discounted and subsidized weapons from Germany.
exactly my thoughts.
>the relationship consists of Germany buying overpriced weapons from Israel
Name one.
>Arrow 3
>intercept an ICBM
Germany should save themselves 2 billion and invest it elsewhere. There is currently no missile system that can intercept an ICBM
ABMs were scoring skin/skin kills in the 70's. Why do people think MIRVs are such boogiemen?
again this..
no they dont gmd has killed some icbm's launching from hawaii but its an extremely favorable test that did not account for the massive relativistic speed difference
plus arrow 3 has a ceiling of 2000-2500km so either it needs to be near its ascention phase or pray that the icbm fails
>HURR DURR I CANT ARGUE WITH SCIENTIFICALLY PROVEN DATA THEREFORE IM GONNA MEME IT
no the scenario is from launch point TILL apogee
because past apogee its game over
so
can you set up missiles near the launch point? aka mainland russia?
if yes good for you (lol)
can you setup missiles in the arctic which means that you need to fight off all the russian subs laying there ?
good for you then
can you fill half of canada with missiles?
you would have done so already
The GMD tests also rigged the testing so the decoys were a lot more obvious.
There is a lot of cope on this board about the fact that if an ICBM is ever launched practically nothing is going to be able to save them
its should have being obvious when russia abm is literal high yield hydrogen bombs
more like
>germany
>targeted by ICBMs
from where? north korea?
pretty much, its gonna be SRBMs & MRBMs, and in extreme cases, IRBMs from siberia
>There is currently no missile system that can intercept an ICBM
Here's the autist who will start sperging about MUH YOU HAVE TO ONLY INTERCEPT AT APOGEE!!!!! DEY BE TOO FAST!!!!!
Can you explain how Arrow 3 will miraculously save Germany from saturated nuclear ICBM and SLBM strikes?
>strikes
>plural
lmaooo moving the goalpost just take the L man you're not that smart
Cope.
Alexa, what is THAAD?
All he does is set the scenario up in which you can ONLY intercept an ICBM at apogee, and nothing else counts. Only intercepting at apogee.
something that cant shoot down an ICBM
oh, so when are you going to intercept them then? with what current systems are you going to shoot them down?
The US has dedicated ICBM interceptors in Alaska that have shot down ICBMs and they've done it with Aegis.
>just Germany's inherent desire to transfer money to Israel?
Probably this. Everyone who had any active role in WW2 is dead and Israel is still making Germans pay reparations.
best anti ballistic system currently in service
>Why is Germany the only EU/NATO country considering this?
because they are fricking moronic.
russia is on the same continent as europe, so there's no need for an intercontinental missile defence system unless they want to protect themselves from US nukes.
finland is shopping for air defense too
a lot of countries started doing so after the recent war started
>Why is Germany the only EU/NATO country considering this?
Isn't Poland building an entire fricking Iron Dome with their new fancy NAREW system?
Hnnng, right in the taxes!
50% is what they take from me. 50%!!!
If you have decent income it's much more than that.
e.g. Value added tax alone is 19% of most stuff you buy.
52% is only the average if you count both those that work and those that do not.

It works as people still believe state-run news, which is basically commy propaganda. Pretending the German way of energy production works, although it hangs on threads from Russian pipelines.
Move to minute 19 if the time-link doesn't work:
Your people voted for this. Either lobby or quit crying but protest over anything but gibs is alien to Eurogays.
not him, and no, we didn't. You don't get to vote on decisions like this in a representative democracy, neither do you in the US get to decide about billions given to Israel. The only country where decisions like this can be decided on in a referendum is Switzerland.
>Why is Germany the only EU/NATO country considering this?
Because NATO countries don't want to duplicate capabilities. Arrow would be expensive, and has the range to cover several.
>Germany's inherent desire to transfer money to Israel
Or, it's the post-Ukraine rearmament everyone has been talking about?
Get back to building those subs Frederich. I hear the Israelis want more.
>Germany wants to buy Arrow 3 missiles from Israel to defend against Russian ICBMs.
Its protection against Poland 😀
Because its price can be accounted into post WW2 reparations for Israel.
Otherwise they'll buy a US system or spend a ludicrous amount of money to do it themselves.
Israel are actually competent. Germany would be silly not to capture that and squander far more money trying to develop domestic systems.
Money in these contexts has no affect on the street so I expect OP is vatnik concern troll.

Kalinigrad
>Germany wants to buy Arrow 3 missiles
So enough to study them and build a homegrown version?
ABM defences don't work.
>Germany is getting ready for a potential nuclear escalation again
Cold War 2.0 confirmed.
Squandering that €100bn injection I see, nice purchase. You could have gotten something really nice with €2bn...
