>western armies prefer 5.56. Do you understand why?
Do you understand why that's not relevant when discussing a vehicle mounted weapon? I honestly don't understand your point. Nor do I care.
>Are you sure?
M242 can reach out to 3-6km, the mk20 can reach 2km on a good day. The m242 has a muzzle velocity of 1300m/s and can penetrate 30-60mm RHA, the Mk20 is about 1000m/s and can penetrate about 14mm. The Bradley can fire on the move, the Marder can't. The Bradley has better optics and ATGM. Finally the Bradley is combat proven in one of the largest wars of the last 40 years, and I struggle to recall any recent action the Marder's been involved in. That last point is quite important because as we learned from the Puma fiasco, German reliability can be very questionable.
The only real advantage that the Mk20 has is its high rate of fire. Which is really of minimal importance in an IFV and can actually be detrimental, and the Bradley has a coaxial anyway.
Also you are coping, let's drop the facade that you were ever interested in an objective discussion of the topic instead of trying to pretend that you remotely know what you're talking about.

Your military cannot train with more than 5 Pumas at a single time, neither marders or Leopards. I've seen it for myself at Sennelager, a small 40 warrior training operation had the local german garrison in awe of how much equipment we had. I felt bad for them, especially given we had another 200 sat in the depot amongst about a thousand other working armoured vehicles.

You have to reload the Milan beeing exposed too. And, by the way, TOWs can be stored in the launcher while driving around, Milans can not. They have to be placed in the launch position while stationary when you intend to fire, because otherwise the vibrations may damage the missile.
Sauce for that:

You're not nearly as exposed as you are on Bradley though. You just pop out the hatch, (which opens forward to provide cover) and reload it. Somebody actually has to get out and climb on the Bradley to reload the TOW, it's really only something you'd do out of combat.
>And, by the way, TOWs can be stored in the launcher while driving around, Milans can not.
Outright false. Also a claim that makes less than zero sense because any vibrations the missile will be subject to on the turret it will also be subject to while sitting in the hull. Literally everyone has been driving around with a missile at the ready in every exercise the Marder was ever in over the last 50+ years, and I've never heard of any problems with doing so.
>Milan is better than the TOW by every metric.
Does Milan have a top-attack mode?
If it doesn't it is not better.
Top-attack is not necessary to kill anything either missile will be facing in Ukraine. Both can kill essentially any target they'll come across. One being more overkill than the other is not a real advantage.

You can't fire the MILAN from inside the vehicle though.
Marder has integrated Milan. It has to be manually loaded each time it's fired, but it can be loaded from the top hatches whereas Bradley needs someone to get out the back hatch and totally expose himself if he ever wants to reload the TOW. I still agree the Bradley has the edge but Marder isn't that bad in the missile department. Also ukes are probably more familiar with Milan as they've been using it quite a bit in tripod format.

The Milan on Marder is actually a straight-up infantry launcher, tripod and all. The turret just has a specific mount for it. It can be freely dismounted and used by the infantry squad riding with the vehicle, which opens up some nice tactical opportunities you wouldn't have with a fixed ATGM launcher on your IFV.

All Bradleys have thermals. Just depends whether they're the ISU Gen 1 thermals like the original M2A2, or the IBAS Gen 2 thermals like the M2A2 ODS-SA and M2A3
AFAIK, almost all US Bradleys in inventory are A2SA or A3 standard now, so those given to Ukraine will most likely have Gen 2 thermals
>Better cannon
The marder can kill everything Russian except the front armor of their MBTs. The stabilizer is probably a bigger issue than the cannon itself, the cannon seems very well minmaxed.
Any cannon is a series of compromises, anon. So of course it's a debate.
If a cannon can kill all targets another cannon can stuff like ammo economy, weight, range, precision, rate of fire and so are important to look at.
Even if the former is not the case it's still important. That's why tanks don't have 155mm guns.

That's a lot of cope. Effective penetration at longer ranges is objectively just better. More HE filler is just better. Having dedicated space for extra dismounted ATGMs on top of those packed by the dismounts and more mounted ATGMs to boot is probably much better than being able to dismount the mounted ATGM.
It's just an irrelevent quirk of having an inferior ATGM launcher on the vehicle.

>muh cope
Sorry, lad, but undisputable facts are not cope, no matter how much they offend your sensibilities.
More penetration is meaningless when less penetration gets the job done as well at any realistic combat distances.
More ammo = more HE filler to put on target. Not to mention that 25mm carries barely any more to begin with even individually.
Being able to dismount the ATGM on top of having dedicated space for extra dismounted anti-tank weapons objectively beats not having the first part of that equation.
Trying to dismiss a major, undneiable advantage as an "irrelevant quirk" only goes to prove that you are either arguing in blatant bad faith, are utterly ignorant in regards to the topic or both of these, In either case, it is clear that you are incapable of engaging in a hones,t fact-based discussion and your opinion is to be discarded as meaningless.

The difference between 20 and 25 isn’t just overkill. The max effective range of 20mm is 2,000m compared to the 25mms 3,000 meters. That’s a huge advantage for the 25mm in a flat country like Ukraine

Penetration of armor is binary. You either get in or you don't and if you do you want whatever puts the most lead and shrapnel in the shortest amount if time in whoever's inside.
Pretty sure that the protection of a BMP against penetrator rounds from a 20mm cannon is factual, while that against a 25mm is very much theoretical, and if they give the Bradley its APFSDS rounds it just isn't there.
TL;DR The Marder uses a cannon for which the BMP was almost explicitly designed to defend (They used 23mm as a metric but same difference), while the Bradley uses a cannon specifically picked to shit on the BMP.
>BMP
Depends on the version but the marder should pen the side armor of all of them and likely the front armor of most if not all.

Nah, even the BMP1 sports frontal arc protection against 23mm. Though follow up shots on the same region will go through, the 25mm should just pummel straight through the glacis on the first try, especially the dart munition, and should do so reliably on most variants.
Again, 20mm autocannon fire is the very thing the BMP was specifically armored to counter, which is why the US scrapped the idea of putting a 20mm on the Bradley to begin with.

Marders always accompany Leopard 2s, no need for extra firepower.
The 20mm. was the perfect choice. Frick up infantry in light cover from far away for a longer time than the Bradley.
If the Ukranians have half a brain they integrate the IFVs they got into their tank battalions.
>top attack
Both will pen any russian armored vehicle at any angle. >range
I am pretty sure that the range of both missles is sufficient, anon.
It does not matter, both missles kill everything the Russians have at sufficient range. Marder can fire missles without exposing the vehicle while Bradley has two missles at the ready.
Marder has slightly better armor and mobility while Bradley has a slightly better gun.
Both are designed to fit slightly different doctrine. As long as you use the vehicle as intended, it will do its job. That’s why the nations that deliver the vehicles train the soldiers fielding them.
My man. What is the 95% CI for ATGM engagements in Ukraine? Do you have any other source for missle ranges than Wikipedia?
I am pretty sure both missles have sufficient range.
Having 2 TOWs integrated into the FCS at the ready with a longer range is better than 1 at the ready with shorter range. You can’t refute this advantage.
One of the nice things about the Marder is that all you need to do is modify the mounting device and you can put any ATGM on the vehicle. Which you then can fire without exposing anything but the launcher. If the israelites were less scummy, there would be MELLS mounted to the Marder.

>Marders always accompany Leopard 2s, no need for extra firepower.
All I'm reading here is that we also should get our fingers out of our asses and finally send some Leo2s as well.
I'm still torn between letting the Russians make some gains first and sending some ASAP.
The easterlings have proven that they'll void of gratitude either way, most of them still believe Germany has only sent a couple helmets to this day and Russkis have been flip flopping a losing faith a bit lately. An early cease-fire would lead to both a lack of war kino involving western tanks and cause less dead vatnigs and ,more importantly, more surviving equipment.
I'd rather solve the russian question for the next 30 years now but that requires some more grinding.

Thank you! Indeed a capable variant. Armor wise they would be similar to Marder 1A3s (Both orotected against Russian 30mm AP in the frontal arc). Both carry the same ammount of dismounts. Ground pressure is lower for the Marder, so mobility in bad weather might be better for it in that regard, but power to weight ratio is slightly better for the Brad. Armament wise the Brad 2A2 absolutly shits all over the Marder tho, and that mainly comes down to the better FCS allowing it to fire on the move, better visibility for the commander and ability to launch ATGMs without exposing yourself.
>the west is coming together to kill russians >no effective long range precise weapons >50 different types of artillery and IFVs 20 pieces from each

This
If by "better" people mean more advanced, then of course the Bradley is better, its more modern because the Puma was messed up, but who cares, both are extremely capable and proven vehicles, superior to the russian ones, that Ukraine has asked for.
Probably because it's yank gear instead of german gear, on top being newer, so it's sexier overall and causes more vatnik butthurt. Bradleys are a bit better than Marders overall (to be expected giventhe plattform is like 15 years newer), but IMO both should be able to do good work.
french 105mm is not NATO compatible, it's a medium pressure canon. no logistics, no repair hubs, untrained personnel, no mechanics to repair it. rare ammo.
Yeah, sure. The French have totally not trained the first battalion batch of Ukrainians to operate those vehicles and no support staff to go along with them.
Ukraine is getting nearly the latest AMX-10 RCR model, minus the Mali IED kit. Compared to the baseline AMX-10R which was quite basic late 80s NATO stuff, it's been digitised with a battlefield network, maps, adjustable hydraulics, and countermeasures including infrared jammers and grenades.

smells like contradictory cope
In an ATGM dual between Bradley and marder the Bradley could kill the marder from further away. In a cannon dual the Bradley could pen the marder from further away.
On models since version 1A1A, a MILAN anti-tank guided missile launcher can be attached to the turret to provide enhanced anti-armour capabilities. Typically, four missiles are carried inside the vehicle.
And then more than the Bradleys ammo once you start using the extra space inside.
>half the ready amm
10+ is half of 2 now? Every single missile in the Marder is effectively ready amm given how rapidly the launcher can be reloaded under combat conditions.
>2/3rds the range
Meaningless, given that that's still more range than some ~99.9% of all combat engagements either vehicle will see in Ukraine. Yet again an on-paper "advantage" that turns out to be worthless overkill.
The 25mm is just superior to 20mm. Atleast 25 has DU rounds that can compete with 30mm while still carrying more ammo than 30mm. There aren’t any 20mm rounds that can compete with 25mm.
They are lashing out since this war has proven their government is a joke, their military is pathetic, and their equipment is beyond mediocre. It is pretty blatant and hilarious.

No idea how it is in comparison. Currently both countries are low on ammo but before the war Germany had rather large cold war stock piles.
I wasn't kidding about the tens of millions of rounds Germany sent. >Look it's simple
I don't think you're talking about these things in good faith. Loans are a part of financial aid, so is deferred payment for military aid, but it's still aid. And despite what you pretend it's just a part of it, not all, by far. >Nah, those loans have specific requirements on what they can be spent on

Actually you could argue that the british vehicles are worse since obviously their way to avoid damage has been speed and maneuverability. And armor is heavy.
But the argument would be equally moronic since it's unlikely the increased fuel consumption and less speed made much of a noticable difference.

UK sent 60,000 155mm, 50,000 152mm and continues to supply M31a1 at scale meaning there isn't just one shipment like the German one. You can look this up on the aid wiki. The UK has a huge stockpile of ammunition that is in date, this is down to the constant use of it and ever refreshing stocks used in Iraq/Afgan. >Loans
OK for example the loan to buy 100 Pzh2k and 18 Boxer with arty turret, what's the point of that? None of them will be delivered before the war is over. The loans have to be paid back so shouldn't be down as donated aid.
It's simple in its true form, the UK donates or sources things to give immediately, Germany includes things that haven't been given or things that will be available in 5 years time. The two aren't comparable it's just EU/Germany upset the UK made it look foolish so early on. >The first aid shipments within 48 hours

They do the same thing. Armor hasn't come into play. >Actually Germany only sent 18,000 155mm and an unstated amount of MLRS rounds and smart 155mm.
Look a bit harder, you forgot quite a lot and I don't understand why. The 100k hand grenades aside, you literally missed millions of rounds in different calibers.
Tens of millions. Frankly, you seem more focused more of jerking off in front of strangers than the truth. >OK for example the loan to buy 100 Pzh2k and 18 Boxer with arty turret, what's the point of that? None of them will be delivered before the war is over. The loans have to be paid back so shouldn't be down as donated aid.
Yes, that is an example, ni it's neither exhaustive nor representative. >It's simple in its true form, the UK donates or sources things to give immediately, Germany includes things that haven't been given or things that will be available in 5 years time.
Nah, UK's long term commitments are in there too. >>The UK was the first
Read what I wrote again. >We had thousands of NLAWs in Ukraine for January 17th so cut the shit Germany and France were still in Putins pocket at that time.
Stop getting your news from visegrad24 >Post your lists right now Germany lacked for months only sending mouldy iglas and 20k helmets.
Kek, it's on wikipedia and would require 4 different posts to get them all. It's also too long to be legible.

We are talking about artillery here anon if you would stop coping you would see I left out the UKs donated small arms munitions. >UKs long term commitments are in there too
Nope, like I said go on the Kiel map to see total donations to date. >UK 7.082bn € (Rank: 2) Military 4.129bn € (Rank: 2) >5.445bn € (Rank: 3) Military 2.345bn € (Rank: 3)
If your chart included the UKs 2023 comitment it would be it's current donations x2. Meaning it would be around €14bn on the graph. So no it isn't included there, its just cope for the other homosexual nations like France Spain and Italy. >UK sends NLAWs before invasion
Are you denying this? Dozens of flights from C17s dropped them there. >On Saturday, Berlin finally bowed to that pressure, and to the reality that Russia is encircling Ukrainian cities and threatening to topple the government in Kyiv.
Germany shit itself and reluctsntly send 1000 Pz3s and 500 Stingers. Its not until recently its pulled its weight. I'm not saying it isn't doing OK now, but you have to admit it was a joke before. >Muh list

The only upgrade you mentioned was armor, which makes it heavier, slower and more expensive.
But due to their vast range they all remain untouched anyway. >drives over landmine apparently that never happened in the entire war to any MARS based system. >Are you being moronic on purpose?
Rest of the post is tldnr, you're clearly not in the right mindset to have a productive conversation.
Thanks for your concession, Germany doesn't train in large battle groups because it has no ready armour and your availability is less than Egypt.

If you look at the NATO deployments each nation has a country its responsible for.
For example Germany has Lithuania, deployed to Lithuania they only managed; >30 Marder IFV (Pumas didn't make it) >6 Leopard 2 >6 Leopard 2 recovery
That's it. Later 3500 soldiers were supposed to bolster this force but they back tracked and kept them in Germany instead.
The UK in comparison seen as that's what is being discussed here has Estonia to look after. The UK deployed; >4 Apaches >4 Wildcat >4 Chinook >12 AS90 >6 M270 >26 Challenger 2 >50 Warrior >50 Scimitar >10 Stormer hvm >A hundred or so Utility and support vehicles
In total other British Nato commitments total >72 Challenger 2 >120 Warriors >8000 troops

It did but the Ossi invasion after the Wall fell finished off West Germany which had no ideology to match the leftists from the East.
Sad as West Germany was a pleasure to defend but the West Germans of that era are elderly or dead. Perhaps their roach bulls will inject some strength into their society but the spiritual leadership of Europe moved to the nations who actually objected to Soviet rule (Poland, Baltics etc). West Germany was remarkably chill, well-kept as befits people who cared for their nation and even the commie protesters were polite.
Wessis were creative too. There was a scheduled anti-GLCM protest at my base (Sembach, which had no GLCM) but the farmer who tilled the area by the flightline gate fricking drenched the fields in liquid and solid manure. We had to roll up our windows on the flightline side but no protestors showed up because the stench was amazing.
It was so nice defending appreciative people vs. deconflicting homicidal ragheads who prefer decapitating each other to food, sex and oxygen.

Here's a prime example of such a degenerate /k/ larper who compares stuff that is being in service since decades to a new weapon system that has only been put out for testing. The only vehicle you remotely could compare the Puma to is the Ajax and we all know how that would turn out.

UK has not donated as much as Germany. UK was just more enthusiastic and earlier with their donations but haven't donated as much as the germans.
No, you don't understand. The british version of the weapon non-Brits (mostly Germans) designed for brits is better because it has armor other countries did not deem necessary.
That is clearly proven by all the less armored versions of it being destroyed. Trusted Eussian sources have posted many exploded HIMARS.

Patriots and marders would fall under my previous statement. Brits got work to do to stay relevant to the last few weeks.
But Gepards have been basically nowhere for most of the war and lots of people have sent lots of atillery. Starstreak bad memes aside the UK gets a pass over the Germans for being there on day one while Germany still had it's nose up Putin's ass.

Your military cannot train with more than 5 Pumas at a single time, neither marders or Leopards. I've seen it for myself at Sennelager, a small 40 warrior training operation had the local german garrison in awe of how much equipment we had. I felt bad for them, especially given we had another 200 sat in the depot amongst about a thousand other working armoured vehicles.

What is the most funniest - all these /k/ degenerates have literally no idea how putting a new weapon system into service works. They want those failures to materialize during testing - the problem here is the number of vehicles is too small. Germany should've ordered 1000+ and we wouldn't even talk about it anymore. With only 20 for testing this will take considerably longer than is usual.

Sort of yes, but Germany is a special case. Germany spends almost as much on its military as France, and have no where near anything like France in capabilities. And thats not because the Frogs are especially awsome, its just that Germany are actually horrible when it comes to anything related to its armed forces. Hell, Im pretty sure a place like Poland could beat Germany, and they spend like 10% of what germany does on its military.
They are lashing out since this war has proven their government is a joke, their military is pathetic, and their equipment is beyond mediocre. It is pretty blatant and hilarious.

In those threads.
I wonder if armatard is proud of himself.
Marder also has the advantage of the option to fight out of the infantry compartment. Big hatches on the top. In afghanistan germans used to put wire and sandbags around for added protection. I think this would work well when attacking trenches.
It's not an insignificant advantage, and fits nicely with the different ways the two vehicles are going to be used, but it doesn't work great. The vehicle is a big target and human arms and eyeball don't make for good stabilization. But when you consider it seriously and set aside the shitposting it becomes obvious that Marders are going to be used in a more aggressive fashion while Bradleys will favor longer engagements, and that just cements the role for Marder.
I don’t know what is more ridiculous, the low quality bait threads or the amount of BS being posted in them.
While a small but very dedicated subgroup of anons keep sliding the entire thing with pointless shitflinging over some OS available stat of any one piece of equipment is better in some dreamed up outlier case scenario, the bigger picture gets blurred.
Both IFVs are very good at what they are supposed to do within the doctrine they were designed for. Both are optimized for slightly different expected combat conditions which in both cases differ from what we are seeing in Ukraine. Both are just small pieces in a much larger machine which is the mechanized formation they are part of. Comparing them based on paper stats is pointless. They both have advantages and disadvantages and in the end, the performance of each individual vehicle on the battlefield is determined by many outside factors.
The far more interesting thing to observe will be how each formation will fare against the challenges they are facing. Don’t kid yourselves. When countries are starting to send equipment in batallion batches, they are training and equipping at least brigades worth of Ukrainians. So we will see German style Panzergrenadierbrigade type formations and US HBCTs. It will be very interesting to see how each formation will work along the lines of their respective doctrine and what missions will be assigned to the individual formations.

How you people haven't suffocated on your own spit yet is beyond me.
I don't get why they don't give Ukraine the Strykers with the 120mm mortar and some of that spotter drone to targeting system integration stuff.
Seems like firepower is what they need, and that's a lighter way to get it and the Stryker is going to be phased out anyhow. They could even convert other versions over to the mortar or the ATGM version.
The other problem is, 155mm shells just aren't enough to break entrenched defenses. They need more firepower for punching holes than a 95lb shell. I know they are getting JDAMs for 500 and 1,000lb bombs that will let them drop them miles out, but IDK how much they can really afford to carry out strikes at this point. It seems like some Strike Eagles could really help here.
End of the day, a bunch of dug in concrete and trenches in your way, 15 1,000lb bombs, maybe some thermobarics, are going to blast a hole for you way better than an artillery barrage.
MARS, MLRS, M270 are all the same vehicle/launcher. HIMARS fires the same rockets as well but only 1 pod instead of 2.

Can you tell the rest of the class how much of Germany's and the EU's financial support consist of loans that were used to buy systems that will only be delivered in a few years instead of, say, loans and direct donations used to buy ammo, drones, fuel or weaponry Ukraine has already received after buying it with the money?
>100 pzh2000 cost €2bn delivery date post war >18 rch155 cost €200m delivery date post war >8000 Rgw90 €40m delivered
Here bro just use my money to buy my things that won't get there in time, also remember you have to pay me back too.
Do you mind if I note this down as a donation?
Imagine what the other loans are like lmao
>a bit more than 2 Billion
Wow, now only about 30 billion are left.
Of course the EU (meaning Germany among others) also sent over 3 billion in direct military aid, but let's just ignore that.
So what did Ukraine spend the other 30 billion in financial aid it got from Germany as a nation and the EU as an institution on?
€30bn? Lol the inflated EU number is only €12bn so that makes it €9.8 combined to the UKs €7.2bn. Sorry your so ill-informed.

Wrong numbers plus it's the sane machine for all intends and purposes.
Also pic related.
You seem very low on accurate information and left out a lot. Are you uninformed or lying out of butthurt because of a lack of guns in your life?
Reminder that the UK pledged 1.9 billion in military equipment and 2.2 billion in financial aid expressly for military purposes.
No idea why you've been seething the entire thread but that stuff is pretty normal to do.
Meanwhile Germany pledged 2,3 billion in military equipment of specific items committed.
You can't even do the whole >German aid never arrives
Shtick anymore because all the big stuff has arrived.
The numbers are from November and Germany has pledged a lot more than the UK since.
UK gave €4.2bn solely for Military aid, Germany only gave €2.3 try to keep up. >You can't do Germany won't deliver >100pzh2k, 18 rch155 as part of aid >Won't arrive until after the war

30 billion, feel free to look it up right now. Check the website, scroll a bit until you see the breakdown. >UK gave €4.2bn solely for Military aid, Germany only gave €2.3 try to keep up.
2.3 in materiel. The UK gave 1.9, the rest is financial aid explicitly for military purposes so it counts towards military aid.
German financial aid not being explicitly only for military purposes doesn't mean it's not used for it, in fact, you yourself mentioned about 2 billion that went towards weapon procurement. Though the question is purely academic since money they don't have to spend on other stuff frees up capacities in their budget for military applications anyway. >Can't I?
You can't, you're also still missing quite a few billion that aren't accounted for.

There is no commitment by the UK.
You keep mentioning the UKsaid it would keep up it's level of commitments in the next year, but that's a broad announcement, nothing more, nothing binding and nothing concrete. Scholz has already said German commitments wouldn't be reduced in the future as long as it takes so if we do brainlet math like yours Germany has committed infinite money.

Expected by whom and when? Most of it is already allocated, including, after the latest revision, a lot more for ammo.
But the money isn't spent yet because no ammo has been bought yet and deals are still being made with the industry. Rheinmetall has been building 2 new ammo facilities,one in Germany and one in hungary, due to it (maybe more but those are the ones I heard of).
But the feds haven't spent any money on ammo itself yet, even if they told the industry that they will.

He's in every thread tangentially related to Germany to seethe about it.
What an embarrassment for his toothless nation.
Enter the autist
1. You're not counting all the eastern european stuff that is given to Ukraine that is paid for or replaced by Germany
2. EU aid also has a lot coming from Germans also while none from BREXIT BRITS.
3. UK is enthusiastic and early with their military aid. Germany was more passive and reluctant with their aid. BUT in the end Germany ended up contributing more.
Brits is the girl who likes you, called you, wants to hang out and gives you a blowjob on the 1st date.
Germs is the girl that doesn't like you, didn't wanna hang out, didn't want to fool around but ended up letting you frick, let you poop on her, put it in her butt and cum in her mouth.
1. Yes I am
2. EU aid like I've said before is riddle ld with clauses and stupid rules like buying 100 Pzh2k for €2bn+ that won't be delivered for another decade.
3. UK military aid is nearly double what Germany has given to date, just because your adding all the fantasy loans and shit that hasn't happened yet to make yourselves feel better doesn't change the fact €4.5bn of acutal material from the UK is in Ukraine right now and only €2.3bn from Germany is there right now.
Nah Britain put its big dick on the table right away without fear
Germany is the little dick who was too shriveled to get it out straight away and instead went home took a picture of it, added some filters and abit of photoshop reappeared nearly a year later and said GUYS LOOK IM WINNING!
Your a homosexual nation, you wouldn't have done anything unless pressured timing is everything if you help a man when he's starving it's infintatly better than giving him a meal ticket and a promise for next year.
It's pretty simple look at it this way
According to your EU fabricated chart The EU has done more for Ukraine than the USA. Are you that fricking dumb you believe that too?
That France Spain and Italy have contributed more than Canada? Just check the wiki and give your head a shake.
You still cannot accept 25mm bushmaster is superior to 20mm, that the dyal TOW fired from the Bradley is better than the Milan.

France is only marginally behind Germany on that chart, which doesn't make sense because in reality France has sent barely anything to Ukraine. But try telling the autismo krauts that.

Everything you wrote is wrong, but just to remind you, Germany sent 2,3 billion in equipment, Britain sent 1,9 billion according to November numbers. The rest is financial aid by the UK which counts as military aid because it's explicitly only for military purposes.
Of course those numbers have risen since then (in Germany's favor).
>Germany was still a assortment of dukedoms and principalities sucking each other off whilst Britain was dominating people in every corner of the globe
Germany has only ever pulled its finger out in 1914 and again in 1939 so it could try and plunge Europe into war and destroy European global hegemony, as all Germans, deep in their shrivelled black hearts, hate to see white people on top.

Here's a nice article demonstrating the reliability of Germanys commitments.
https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.politico.eu/article/germany-backtracks-on-defense-spending-promise-warns-about-delays-ukraine-war/amp/?espv=1 >Last month, it had already emerged that Germany will likely miss its 2 percent target in 2023 as the regular defense budget of about €50 billion will slightly shrink by about €300 million. Only a comparably small first tranche of a massive €100 billion special military upgrading fund is expected to be paid out.
Meanwhile Bonglands just spent $82bn this year alone set to rise next year. Stay in your lane.
I think I've seen this Black person post exactly that shit about backtracking like a smug c**t before.
He's in every thread tangentially related to Germany to seethe about it.
What an embarrassment for his toothless nation.

Reminder that the UK pledged 1.9 billion in military equipment and 2.2 billion in financial aid expressly for military purposes.
No idea why you've been seething the entire thread but that stuff is pretty normal to do.
Meanwhile Germany pledged 2,3 billion in military equipment of specific items committed.
You can't even do the whole >German aid never arrives
Shtick anymore because all the big stuff has arrived.
The numbers are from November and Germany has pledged a lot more than the UK since.
1. You're not counting all the eastern european stuff that is given to Ukraine that is paid for or replaced by Germany
2. EU aid also has a lot coming from Germans also while none from BREXIT BRITS.
3. UK is enthusiastic and early with their military aid. Germany was more passive and reluctant with their aid. BUT in the end Germany ended up contributing more.
Brits is the girl who likes you, called you, wants to hang out and gives you a blowjob on the 1st date.
Germs is the girl that doesn't like you, didn't wanna hang out, didn't want to fool around but ended up letting you frick, let you poop on her, put it in her butt and cum in her mouth.
Well,l did you seriously think they'd give up the 80 or so upgraded 1A3's they still use themselves? If yes you might be moronic,
Actually, since they're being replaced anyway, the German defence minister announced today that they'd be coming out of active stocks. There should still be a thread up about it right now.
Because the USA will support the deliveries after donation and will make sure they arrive in a quick and efficient manner. Germany will make sure they arrive by the next fiscal year and won't provide much (if any) after donation support. Much like the Gepards ran out of ammo. If the USA donates something, it works and will be supported onwards. If Germany donates something, it's done because of international and internal pressure.
Black person you can't prove a negative, that's logically impossible.
Ammo deliveries are less than people would want them to be due to swiss judaism, but Rheinmetall bought an entire company (swiss or spanish, something with S) and set up a separate factory in Germany to produce more ammo. They also wanna set up another one in hungary. Maybe they're already doing it.
Either way, Gepards still have ammo, likely less than they'd be comfortable with for a great offensive right now, but not only are you wrong as hell in your post, you're also gay.
And you missed the recent gepard footage somehow.
It's up there with the Chieftain rolling around downtown Bagdad with an M4 on the turret roof next to him because it was faster to bring on target than the pintle-mounted M2.
You can use the Marder missle without exposing anything but the missle tube though. Which is a distinct advantage if you consider both missles being wire guided and flight times.
You can also mount any ATGM you like with very little modification.
I can't believe we have to waste our time trying to explain how 25mm>20mm
And how having an integrated, armored 2 tube long range missile launcher is better than having a single tube medium range tripod missile launcher strapped on to the turret

One day, they'll design an IFV whose videos will be set to Van Halen's Panama and consist of nothing but the vehicle destroying T-72s with missiles and cannon fire in multiple direction simultaneously, all while doing burnouts in a parking lot with the commander head-out mag-dumping a MAC-10 full of nothing but tracer rounds one-handedly because he's carry a 1980s boombox on his other shoulder.

>western armies prefer 5.56. Do you understand why?
Do you understand why that's not relevant when discussing a vehicle mounted weapon? I honestly don't understand your point. Nor do I care.
>Are you sure?
M242 can reach out to 3-6km, the mk20 can reach 2km on a good day. The m242 has a muzzle velocity of 1300m/s and can penetrate 30-60mm RHA, the Mk20 is about 1000m/s and can penetrate about 14mm. The Bradley can fire on the move, the Marder can't. The Bradley has better optics and ATGM. Finally the Bradley is combat proven in one of the largest wars of the last 40 years, and I struggle to recall any recent action the Marder's been involved in. That last point is quite important because as we learned from the Puma fiasco, German reliability can be very questionable.
The only real advantage that the Mk20 has is its high rate of fire. Which is really of minimal importance in an IFV and can actually be detrimental, and the Bradley has a coaxial anyway.
Also you are coping, let's drop the facade that you were ever interested in an objective discussion of the topic instead of trying to pretend that you remotely know what you're talking about.
Preach brother

Fake news. 2 vehicles had serious issues, the rest were fine. Combat ready is a pretty high standard in Germany. A flickering light means a vehicle doesn't meet the requirements.
>flickering light means a vehicle doesn't meet the requirements.
Unsubstantiated cope
Your military cannot train with more than 5 Pumas at a single time, neither marders or Leopards. I've seen it for myself at Sennelager, a small 40 warrior training operation had the local german garrison in awe of how much equipment we had. I felt bad for them, especially given we had another 200 sat in the depot amongst about a thousand other working armoured vehicles.
you know that they still use 7.62, right? in fact they use it on vehicles.
including on the MARDER THAT YOU ARE SHILLING FOR.
The point was that the nature of the application affects the optimal choice of caliber you brainlet.
And I didn't shill for the marder I asked a moron a question and he sperged out do I bullied him.
I think you might be the moron, anon.
The m242 and Integrated TOW of course. Stabilized gun vs non-stabilized.
I am pretty sure the Milan ADT is sufficient to destroy every vehicle in the russian army’s inventory, anon.
The TOW is better by every metric. Especially 2B
More overkill =/= better.
Also, Milan can be dismounted and used effectively as an infantry launcher, while Bradley's TOW tubes cannot, and dismounted TOW launchers aren't really useable in a mobile role either.
Bradleys have dedicated storage for Javelins so you can ATGM while your dismounts ATGM. Moot point. All this is totally dependent on which Milans and which TOWs they're getting.
The TOW on Bradley is stuck on the side of the vehicle and is extremely risky to reload in combat. There's two of them but there's been failure to launch issues in the past.
You have to reload the Milan beeing exposed too. And, by the way, TOWs can be stored in the launcher while driving around, Milans can not. They have to be placed in the launch position while stationary when you intend to fire, because otherwise the vibrations may damage the missile.
Sauce for that:
You're not nearly as exposed as you are on Bradley though. You just pop out the hatch, (which opens forward to provide cover) and reload it. Somebody actually has to get out and climb on the Bradley to reload the TOW, it's really only something you'd do out of combat.
No u
https://www.quora.com/How-does-the-crew-of-a-Bradley-reload-the-TOW-missiles
>And, by the way, TOWs can be stored in the launcher while driving around, Milans can not.
Outright false. Also a claim that makes less than zero sense because any vibrations the missile will be subject to on the turret it will also be subject to while sitting in the hull. Literally everyone has been driving around with a missile at the ready in every exercise the Marder was ever in over the last 50+ years, and I've never heard of any problems with doing so.
Top-attack is not necessary to kill anything either missile will be facing in Ukraine. Both can kill essentially any target they'll come across. One being more overkill than the other is not a real advantage.
The TOWs longer range is a distinct advantage. Did you forget Ukraine has vast open spaces.
Having 2 TOWs integrated into the FCS at the ready with a longer range is better than 1 at the ready with shorter range. You can’t refute this advantage.
I was just refering to a video stating so, but I have never actually been part of a unit using Marders so I wouldnt know. That said I rarely see them mounted at all, but that may just be case of "If you do not intend to use it today, why bother mounting it".
You can't fire the MILAN from inside the vehicle though.
Marder has integrated Milan. It has to be manually loaded each time it's fired, but it can be loaded from the top hatches whereas Bradley needs someone to get out the back hatch and totally expose himself if he ever wants to reload the TOW. I still agree the Bradley has the edge but Marder isn't that bad in the missile department. Also ukes are probably more familiar with Milan as they've been using it quite a bit in tripod format.
The Milan on Marder is actually a straight-up infantry launcher, tripod and all. The turret just has a specific mount for it. It can be freely dismounted and used by the infantry squad riding with the vehicle, which opens up some nice tactical opportunities you wouldn't have with a fixed ATGM launcher on your IFV.
>It has to be manually loaded each time it's fired, but it can be loaded from the top hatches whereas Bradley needs someone to get out the back hatch and totally expose himself if he ever wants to reload the TOW.
Okay Black person.
>Will the Bradleys they send have thermals too?
All Bradleys have thermals. Just depends whether they're the ISU Gen 1 thermals like the original M2A2, or the IBAS Gen 2 thermals like the M2A2 ODS-SA and M2A3
AFAIK, almost all US Bradleys in inventory are A2SA or A3 standard now, so those given to Ukraine will most likely have Gen 2 thermals
>Better cannon
The marder can kill everything Russian except the front armor of their MBTs. The stabilizer is probably a bigger issue than the cannon itself, the cannon seems very well minmaxed.
OK, but the Bradley has a better cannon it's not a debate its a fact.
Any cannon is a series of compromises, anon. So of course it's a debate.
If a cannon can kill all targets another cannon can stuff like ammo economy, weight, range, precision, rate of fire and so are important to look at.
Even if the former is not the case it's still important. That's why tanks don't have 155mm guns.
There is armor that 25mm DU will pen but 20mm won’t
Obviously, but which Russian targets in Ukraine does that apply to?
Side profile of the t72 jumps out. T-62 or t-55. Terminators if they ever show face.
Shouldn't they be able to oen t62s?
Not sure about T72s.
All of them. 25mm will perform better aganst all targets at any given range.
>25mm will kill russian AFVs twice over where 20mm will only kill them once.
What a great "advantage".
No you're moronic. Anything that Marder can kill, Bradley can kill with the same level of precision and lethality from further away.
And ~95% of what Bradley can kill in Ukraine, Marder can kill just as effectively. While being cheaper to run and carrying more ammo. Seems rather like a wash to me.
>storage for a whole other launcher
Can do the same on Marder. on top of the dismountable Milan. So still a distinct and meaningful advantage for the Marder.
>dependent on which Milans and TOWs
Not really. All Milan types can be dismounted and used in a mobile infantry role. No TOW model can.
Go fast, shrug off artillery fragment and mulch things with a gig ole 105mm that will frick up anything other than a T-90's front armor.
>So still a distinct and meaningful advantage for the Marder.
Nope. No reason to pop off an IFVs ATGM. The dismounts have superior javelins.
That's a lot of cope. Effective penetration at longer ranges is objectively just better. More HE filler is just better. Having dedicated space for extra dismounted ATGMs on top of those packed by the dismounts and more mounted ATGMs to boot is probably much better than being able to dismount the mounted ATGM.
It's just an irrelevent quirk of having an inferior ATGM launcher on the vehicle.
>muh cope
Sorry, lad, but undisputable facts are not cope, no matter how much they offend your sensibilities.
More penetration is meaningless when less penetration gets the job done as well at any realistic combat distances.
More ammo = more HE filler to put on target. Not to mention that 25mm carries barely any more to begin with even individually.
Being able to dismount the ATGM on top of having dedicated space for extra dismounted anti-tank weapons objectively beats not having the first part of that equation.
Trying to dismiss a major, undneiable advantage as an "irrelevant quirk" only goes to prove that you are either arguing in blatant bad faith, are utterly ignorant in regards to the topic or both of these, In either case, it is clear that you are incapable of engaging in a hones,t fact-based discussion and your opinion is to be discarded as meaningless. Good day, sir.
>gets told that overkill is not actually an advantage
>can't handle it
>engages standard bad faith debating
>gets called out
>starts projecting his behaviour upon those calling him out
Completely predictable, and no less pathetic for it.
>Trying to dismiss a major, undneiable advantage as an "irrelevant quirk"
The longer range and more ATGMs carried is something you keep dismissing. It’s much more important than being able to pop off the vehicles ATGM.
The difference between 20 and 25 isn’t just overkill. The max effective range of 20mm is 2,000m compared to the 25mms 3,000 meters. That’s a huge advantage for the 25mm in a flat country like Ukraine
and crickets in response lol
I assume his response would have been
>what's the max engagement distance 99% of the time in ukraine?
Since he posted that before in regards to missiles.
Penetration of armor is binary. You either get in or you don't and if you do you want whatever puts the most lead and shrapnel in the shortest amount if time in whoever's inside.
>And so on
Fif((you))
Better for what? I'm not shitting on the Bradley, I just don't see what targets it can nail that the 20mm on the Marder can't.
a t72?
Side armor in both cases.
Nit him but
>was
It's been like 50 years, newer IFVs consider future threats.
Luckily Russia uses 50 year old equipment.
Better range, better penetration, better HE capacity.
Pretty sure that the protection of a BMP against penetrator rounds from a 20mm cannon is factual, while that against a 25mm is very much theoretical, and if they give the Bradley its APFSDS rounds it just isn't there.
TL;DR The Marder uses a cannon for which the BMP was almost explicitly designed to defend (They used 23mm as a metric but same difference), while the Bradley uses a cannon specifically picked to shit on the BMP.
>BMP
Depends on the version but the marder should pen the side armor of all of them and likely the front armor of most if not all.
Nah, even the BMP1 sports frontal arc protection against 23mm. Though follow up shots on the same region will go through, the 25mm should just pummel straight through the glacis on the first try, especially the dart munition, and should do so reliably on most variants.
Again, 20mm autocannon fire is the very thing the BMP was specifically armored to counter, which is why the US scrapped the idea of putting a 20mm on the Bradley to begin with.
>"25mm is a better round."
>"Oh yeah?1?1?!?! Name one vehicle that 25mm can penetrate that 20mm can't!"
>"here, it's the most primative and least capable IFV that the Russians use."

I'm not sure that accounts for the penetrators since they punch way above their weight.

>primative
Kek
the bradley rounds are razor sharp depleted uranium sabots. they can literally be used to stab a man
Marders always accompany Leopard 2s, no need for extra firepower.
The 20mm. was the perfect choice. Frick up infantry in light cover from far away for a longer time than the Bradley.
If the Ukranians have half a brain they integrate the IFVs they got into their tank battalions.
Milan is better than the TOW by every metric.
The extended range Milan only has a 3000m range. Modern TOW are atleast 4km. Plus they have top attack warheads.
>top attack
Both will pen any russian armored vehicle at any angle.
>range
I am pretty sure that the range of both missles is sufficient, anon.
It does not matter, both missles kill everything the Russians have at sufficient range. Marder can fire missles without exposing the vehicle while Bradley has two missles at the ready.
Marder has slightly better armor and mobility while Bradley has a slightly better gun.
Both are designed to fit slightly different doctrine. As long as you use the vehicle as intended, it will do its job. That’s why the nations that deliver the vehicles train the soldiers fielding them.
>I am pretty sure that the range of both missles is sufficient
The TOW has a longer range so that’s a tangible advantage.
My man. What is the 95% CI for ATGM engagements in Ukraine? Do you have any other source for missle ranges than Wikipedia?
I am pretty sure both missles have sufficient range.
One of the nice things about the Marder is that all you need to do is modify the mounting device and you can put any ATGM on the vehicle. Which you then can fire without exposing anything but the launcher. If the israelites were less scummy, there would be MELLS mounted to the Marder.
Wikipedias numbers are accurate. The TOW has a longer range than the Milan.
Wikipedia isn't the source, scroll down and you'll see the citations. How about you provide a source on their ranges being the same.
>Milan is better than the TOW by every metric.
Does Milan have a top-attack mode?
If it doesn't it is not better.
Is top attack required to stack vatnigs?
Last time I checked a Panzerfaust III removed half of the structure of their best tanks through the front armor.
The bradley has 2 longer ranges atgms on tap. The marder has 1 shorter ranges ATGM
>Marders always accompany Leopard 2s, no need for extra firepower.
All I'm reading here is that we also should get our fingers out of our asses and finally send some Leo2s as well.
I'm still torn between letting the Russians make some gains first and sending some ASAP.
The easterlings have proven that they'll void of gratitude either way, most of them still believe Germany has only sent a couple helmets to this day and Russkis have been flip flopping a losing faith a bit lately. An early cease-fire would lead to both a lack of war kino involving western tanks and cause less dead vatnigs and ,more importantly, more surviving equipment.
I'd rather solve the russian question for the next 30 years now but that requires some more grinding.
>The 20mm. was the perfect choice.
youre such a braindead jingoist because not even the bundeswehr believes this since the puma and lynx are 30mm.
>While it used to include a few unique features, such as a fully remote machine gun on the rear deck and gun ports on the sides for infantry to fire through, these features have been deleted or streamlined in later upgrade packages to bring it more in line with modern IFV design.
It's exactly like every other German POS in that on paper it's fricking invincible and contains actual Germanwunderwaffe features that strongly benefit the Mittlestrand which also make you completely dependent on air superiority in Essen, Germany, at all times as your security from the wolves.
Yikes.
Japanese are no better at electronics and neither are Asians in general. They turned every exponential curve in electronics into a logarithmic line of stasis, which was exactly the strategy when we spun off the electronics industry to those clowns in the late 70s and 80s, which they did by violating the Oligopoloy Agreement type contract against price dumping in their own market to lower prices for decent goods in USA. That's how every Toyota and Honda started who all have worse deaths/mile than any Pinto of concurrent vintage.
Cheap, shoddy products produced by Chinese but now that production is moving to Vietnam, which is small and can't relay on endless pools of literally awesome chink industrial workers who ching-chong their way into perfect iPhones every single time.
Instead awesome jungle asians are going to give up big daddy Communism in better fashion by using long-term, higher-paid, more dignified workers and Vietnam will be the long-term Asian powerhouse and she will lean on her neighbors with every Western device of innovation and they will be destroyed.
I dont' even want an Asian wife of any type just saying, the Vietnamese are going to break the East Asia old man zaibatsu/Xi homosexual game for good. USA helped them by withdrawing from Vietnam and they kept their spears and shit. Best deal any human ever makes USA makes always. until then it's bombs.

Tourists are such weird people.
They are both just cold war battle busses that will absolutly shit on anything Russia has.
Marders cant fire on the move accuratly, but I dont know if early Brads could do that either.
they could indeed. bradleys utterly shat on the t72's at 73 eastings, they actually killed more t72's than the abrams did.
To be fair they were being used in recon so they contacted first.
yeah,Im honestly excited for the webms.Im not familiar with the mud season thing so but I can wait.I dont think we will see lot of vehicle on vehicle action but more of a mobik meat grinder.
>Non stabilized cannon
In order to compare them in any resonably way, do we know what variant of Brads will be sent? The Marders will no doubth be 1A3 verisions.
https://insidedefense.com/insider/dod-sending-50-bradley-vehicles-ukraine-part-3b-aid-package
Looks like M2A2s
Thank you! Indeed a capable variant. Armor wise they would be similar to Marder 1A3s (Both orotected against Russian 30mm AP in the frontal arc). Both carry the same ammount of dismounts. Ground pressure is lower for the Marder, so mobility in bad weather might be better for it in that regard, but power to weight ratio is slightly better for the Brad. Armament wise the Brad 2A2 absolutly shits all over the Marder tho, and that mainly comes down to the better FCS allowing it to fire on the move, better visibility for the commander and ability to launch ATGMs without exposing yourself.
>M2A2 has dedicated Javelin stowage.
Oh they're gonna enjoy that.
Why are you people even arguing about this? I for one am just happy that the west is coming together to kill russians.
Some people are unable to have social interactions online that aren't antagonistic and feel attacked immediately.
It's really pathetic.
>the west is coming together to kill russians

Why is senile Joe such a week pussy?
Because you know what the training and delivery schedule is and there are definitely no more IFVs coming in the foreseeable future?
The west is giving israelitetin so many offramps but sunk cost fallacy makes him ignore them.
Because it's fun talking about what weapon will frick up the vatniks more.
Wish we could do a sweepstake
This
If by "better" people mean more advanced, then of course the Bradley is better, its more modern because the Puma was messed up, but who cares, both are extremely capable and proven vehicles, superior to the russian ones, that Ukraine has asked for.
>the you'll never ride on top of the NATOmorph
i can't take it, brehs
>Norman Osborn
>Joe Biden
>Churchill
There's way more bradleys in reserve than marders.
There was 2000+ Marders produced. Too bad the Germans recycled most of them thinking war in Europe could never happen again.
Probably because it's yank gear instead of german gear, on top being newer, so it's sexier overall and causes more vatnik butthurt. Bradleys are a bit better than Marders overall (to be expected giventhe plattform is like 15 years newer), but IMO both should be able to do good work.
So what about this French AMX-10RC or whatever the frick it's called, what can that do? All I know is it has a 105mm gun but no stabilisation.
french 105mm is not NATO compatible, it's a medium pressure canon. no logistics, no repair hubs, untrained personnel, no mechanics to repair it. rare ammo.
Yeah, sure. The French have totally not trained the first battalion batch of Ukrainians to operate those vehicles and no support staff to go along with them.
Ukraine is getting nearly the latest AMX-10 RCR model, minus the Mali IED kit. Compared to the baseline AMX-10R which was quite basic late 80s NATO stuff, it's been digitised with a battlefield network, maps, adjustable hydraulics, and countermeasures including infrared jammers and grenades.
>no stabilisation
it's stabilised.
>a wash
>a distinct and meaningful advantage
smells like contradictory cope
AMX 10RCR is not stabilised. it never recieved stabilisation
In an ATGM dual between Bradley and marder the Bradley could kill the marder from further away. In a cannon dual the Bradley could pen the marder from further away.
It's going to be one of those moments, with the Ukraine explicitly stated how superior German material is isn't it?
On models since version 1A1A, a MILAN anti-tank guided missile launcher can be attached to the turret to provide enhanced anti-armour capabilities. Typically, four missiles are carried inside the vehicle.

>almost half the total ammo
And then more than the Bradleys ammo once you start using the extra space inside.
>half the ready amm
10+ is half of 2 now? Every single missile in the Marder is effectively ready amm given how rapidly the launcher can be reloaded under combat conditions.
>2/3rds the range
Meaningless, given that that's still more range than some ~99.9% of all combat engagements either vehicle will see in Ukraine. Yet again an on-paper "advantage" that turns out to be worthless overkill.
The 25mm is just superior to 20mm. Atleast 25 has DU rounds that can compete with 30mm while still carrying more ammo than 30mm. There aren’t any 20mm rounds that can compete with 25mm.
Who asked?
We are directly comparing the Bradley and marder
Who?
Your German shitcan is gay, useful but gay. Get over it.
>postercount didn't rise
Triggered
Your autism is way beyond regular sperg range. Well done.
Why are Germans the most autistic mental gymnasts when upset about something? It's like this in every thread.
They are lashing out since this war has proven their government is a joke, their military is pathetic, and their equipment is beyond mediocre. It is pretty blatant and hilarious.
I think that speaks for the entirety of the EU
Britain has probably come off the worst. Germany has definitely stepped it up
Britain has done a lot better than Germany for most of the war. Though after Patriot batteries and the AFVs they gotta try harder to stay relevant.
German SPGs, patriots, gephards, and marders trump anything the UK has sent.
Patriots and marders would fall under my previous statement. Brits got work to do to stay relevant to the last few weeks.
But Gepards have been basically nowhere for most of the war and lots of people have sent lots of atillery. Starstreak bad memes aside the UK gets a pass over the Germans for being there on day one while Germany still had it's nose up Putin's ass.
>14 (lol) pzh2k vs 40 m109
>3 ancient Mars3 vs 9 M270b1
>30 Gepards almost a year after the invasion began
>Marders that haven't turned up vs 200 armoured vehicles including 80 cvrt fv103 stormer aa scimitar
That's just the start let's not get it twisted here, Britain sent the most important shit straight away while Germany was shitting itself in the corner next to a rusty leopard missing its gun.
Also how many RC135s have you got in the air over Ukraine right now?
>>3 ancient Mars3 vs 9 M270b1
Wrong numbers plus it's the sane machine for all intends and purposes.
Also pic related.
You seem very low on accurate information and left out a lot. Are you uninformed or lying out of butthurt because of a lack of guns in your life?
>Bbbbbut it's the same
No the B1 has better armour and better protected against mines.
>wrong numbers
Yeh they have upped it to a huge 5 vs 9. Plus a huge stock pile of ammunition which Germany simply doesn't have.
>also pic related
Ah the EU inflated meme to make Germany look good with things that haven't happened yet, why doesn't it include Britain's commitment to donate the same amount next year already provided? Strange...
anyway look how much more military aid the UK has provided lol
>No the B1 has better armour and better protected against mines.
Which hasn't mattered at all after months of warfare meaning effectively they're just heavier.
>Yeh they have upped it to a huge 5 vs 9. Plus a huge stock pile of ammunition which Germany simply doesn't have.
5 to 9 is okay considering all the other stuff sent.
Germany did actually send a lot of ammo though, not just tens of millions of other rounds but also missiles.
>Ah the EU inflated meme to make Germany look good with things that haven't happened yet, why doesn't it include Britain's commitment to donate the same amount next year already provided? Strange...
Probably because you're seething, coping and misunderstanding?
>anyway look how much more military aid the UK has provided lol
Okay? Financial aid is as necessary as military aid. You also seem to believe this is a competition.
Both Germany and the UK sent respectable amounts of weaponry and aid and will continue to do so. Not really sure why you're trying to pretend otherwise.
>It's better but it doesn't matter!!!
Oh my god your the same fricking idiot that thinks the better Bradley 25mm cannon isn't better than the Marders 20mm pea shooter because it just isn't OK!
>Germany sent alot of ammo
No way near the amount the UK sent, M31A1s on tap pretty much in three shipments. The UK has a much larger stock of weapon munitions than Germany.
>EU inflated chart
Look it's simple, it includes things like loans they to pay back and money that is allocated to them later this year. The UK has said it would match what it's already given this coming year but you don't see that on the graph?
Also go to Kiels website, click the map select each country specifically for an up to date total. The UK is way infront without factoring in the imaginary figures from the EU "Loans"
>Financial aid is military aid
Nah, those loans have specific requirements on what they can be spent on.
And let's not forget most importantly TIMING. Germany did basically nothing when Ukraine needed help Britain was there immediately even before the invasion don't for one second think because Germany has stuck it's hand reluctantly in its pocket so late on its anything like equal.
>Oh my god your the same fricking idiot that thinks the better Bradley 25mm cannon isn't better than the Marders 20mm pea shooter because it just isn't OK!
I'm not the other guy, but we know for a fact the armor has not made a difference.
>No way near the amount the UK sent, M31A1s on tap pretty much in three shipments. The UK has a much larger stock of weapon munitions than Germany.
No idea how it is in comparison. Currently both countries are low on ammo but before the war Germany had rather large cold war stock piles.
I wasn't kidding about the tens of millions of rounds Germany sent.
>Look it's simple
I don't think you're talking about these things in good faith. Loans are a part of financial aid, so is deferred payment for military aid, but it's still aid. And despite what you pretend it's just a part of it, not all, by far.
>Nah, those loans have specific requirements on what they can be spent on
Some do, most of them have requirements meant for the war, but not all aid by far consists of loans.
>And let's not forget most importantly TIMING
The first shipment announcements of Britain, France and Germany all happened within 48 hours.
You sound like you base your information mostly on memes and twitter. Look up the actual lists.
>I'm not the other guy, but we know for a fact the armor has not made a difference.
Actually you could argue that the british vehicles are worse since obviously their way to avoid damage has been speed and maneuverability. And armor is heavy.
But the argument would be equally moronic since it's unlikely the increased fuel consumption and less speed made much of a noticable difference.
>25mm
It's better that's end of the argument really, just like the B1 is better than the Mars2. Nothing else to say on the matter.
>Ammunition sent
Actually Germany only sent 18,000 155mm and an unstated amount of MLRS rounds and smart 155mm.
UK sent 60,000 155mm, 50,000 152mm and continues to supply M31a1 at scale meaning there isn't just one shipment like the German one. You can look this up on the aid wiki. The UK has a huge stockpile of ammunition that is in date, this is down to the constant use of it and ever refreshing stocks used in Iraq/Afgan.
>Loans
OK for example the loan to buy 100 Pzh2k and 18 Boxer with arty turret, what's the point of that? None of them will be delivered before the war is over. The loans have to be paid back so shouldn't be down as donated aid.
It's simple in its true form, the UK donates or sources things to give immediately, Germany includes things that haven't been given or things that will be available in 5 years time. The two aren't comparable it's just EU/Germany upset the UK made it look foolish so early on.
>The first aid shipments within 48 hours
Stop right there.
>The UK was the first country in Europe to send military aid to Ukraine, sending thousands of NLAW anti-tank missiles early in 2022.
We had thousands of NLAWs in Ukraine for January 17th so cut the shit Germany and France were still in Putins pocket at that time. Post your lists right now Germany lacked for months only sending mouldy iglas and 20k helmets.
> just like the B1 is better than the Mars2.
They do the same thing. Armor hasn't come into play.
>Actually Germany only sent 18,000 155mm and an unstated amount of MLRS rounds and smart 155mm.
Look a bit harder, you forgot quite a lot and I don't understand why. The 100k hand grenades aside, you literally missed millions of rounds in different calibers.
Tens of millions. Frankly, you seem more focused more of jerking off in front of strangers than the truth.
>OK for example the loan to buy 100 Pzh2k and 18 Boxer with arty turret, what's the point of that? None of them will be delivered before the war is over. The loans have to be paid back so shouldn't be down as donated aid.
Yes, that is an example, ni it's neither exhaustive nor representative.
>It's simple in its true form, the UK donates or sources things to give immediately, Germany includes things that haven't been given or things that will be available in 5 years time.
Nah, UK's long term commitments are in there too.
>>The UK was the first
Read what I wrote again.
>We had thousands of NLAWs in Ukraine for January 17th so cut the shit Germany and France were still in Putins pocket at that time.
Stop getting your news from visegrad24
>Post your lists right now Germany lacked for months only sending mouldy iglas and 20k helmets.
Kek, it's on wikipedia and would require 4 different posts to get them all. It's also too long to be legible.
You can look it up yourself.
Or you can keep seething for no reason.
I genuinely don't understand why you're so butthurt and delusional. You're desperately clinging to a narrative you don't even gain anything from.
It's weird.
>They do the same
One is better than the other you idiot
>Armour doesn't come into play
>drives over land mine
>gets counter artyd
Are you being moronic on purpose?
>millions of small arms rounds and grenades
We are talking about artillery here anon if you would stop coping you would see I left out the UKs donated small arms munitions.
>UKs long term commitments are in there too
Nope, like I said go on the Kiel map to see total donations to date.
>UK 7.082bn € (Rank: 2) Military 4.129bn € (Rank: 2)
>5.445bn € (Rank: 3) Military 2.345bn € (Rank: 3)
If your chart included the UKs 2023 comitment it would be it's current donations x2. Meaning it would be around €14bn on the graph. So no it isn't included there, its just cope for the other homosexual nations like France Spain and Italy.
>UK sends NLAWs before invasion
Are you denying this? Dozens of flights from C17s dropped them there.
>On Saturday, Berlin finally bowed to that pressure, and to the reality that Russia is encircling Ukrainian cities and threatening to topple the government in Kyiv.
Germany shit itself and reluctsntly send 1000 Pz3s and 500 Stingers. Its not until recently its pulled its weight. I'm not saying it isn't doing OK now, but you have to admit it was a joke before.
>Muh list
Yeh check it its full of cope and 'too be delivered' and **bought by ukraine. Pathetic really.
>One is better than the other you idiot
The only upgrade you mentioned was armor, which makes it heavier, slower and more expensive.
But due to their vast range they all remain untouched anyway.
>drives over landmine apparently that never happened in the entire war to any MARS based system.
>Are you being moronic on purpose?
Rest of the post is tldnr, you're clearly not in the right mindset to have a productive conversation.
>Thanks for your concession
None was made. You seem to have trouble with basic logic.
Man, I hope this is the same guy and not 2 separate constantly butthurt bongs.
Can you post an image of a large scale German training exercise or not you autistic sperg
Same goes for you could you please post a large scale deployment
>18 Pumas broke
>b-but they are fixed now
oook, but 18 on an exercise is fricking tiny lmao what's wrong with the rest of them needing to be upgraded to s1?
All this wunderwaggle and this is your big finale, proof 18 vehicles work?
You don't seem like a pleasant or honest person.
Case in point
>>18 Pumas broke
A single loose screw causing a bit of rattling on a container doesn't break a vehicle.
Though I guess I understand the british trauma about rattling IFVs after the ajax.
It's not a case of being unpleasant it's just a reality check for upity Germans getting abit excited.
The point was 18 is tiny to exercise with and their isn't a single image of a large German training exercise which leads me to belive the reports are true and you don't have many working vehicles otherwise you would train with them like we do.
Ajax is shit.
If you look at the NATO deployments each nation has a country its responsible for.
For example Germany has Lithuania, deployed to Lithuania they only managed;
>30 Marder IFV (Pumas didn't make it)
>6 Leopard 2
>6 Leopard 2 recovery
That's it. Later 3500 soldiers were supposed to bolster this force but they back tracked and kept them in Germany instead.
The UK in comparison seen as that's what is being discussed here has Estonia to look after. The UK deployed;
>4 Apaches
>4 Wildcat
>4 Chinook
>12 AS90
>6 M270
>26 Challenger 2
>50 Warrior
>50 Scimitar
>10 Stormer hvm
>A hundred or so Utility and support vehicles
In total other British Nato commitments total
>72 Challenger 2
>120 Warriors
>8000 troops
How is it possible an island nation can deploy so much kit from its German bases but Germany itself cannot even manage to do 5% of that? France too...
Nobody asked.
Nah, you're actively butthurt and lying and you've posted this nonsense plenty of times and were proven wrong. You ignore it and ignore the pictures you ask for and just repeat it in another thread.

Anon, if you'd put more effort into the defence of your own country maybe over 1 million young children wouldn't have been groomed, tortured and forcefully prostituted by paki rape gangs. Don't talk about getting uppity while you chose go be led by a foreigner after your entire country found out that your leftists spent 3 decades nation wide actively protecting pakistanis who preyed on your children and years later still nothing has been done about it, none of the politicians were thrown in jail and executed and nobody as far as anybody can tell it's likely still ongoing.
Scholz is a bald manlet with commie sympathies and yet he somehow manages to be better than the average mid-level british politician.
Get the frick back in your lane and fix your own country before you try to dictate the behavior of anybody else.
Don't bother trying to be reasonable, he isn't.
One picture, Dennis.
Just a single fricking picture.
>you've posted this nonsense plenty of times and were proven wrong.
Every time I've seen it happen, it ends with someone asking that you post 1 picture in support of your assertions but you never do. Not once.
Are you pretending to be moronic? Germany and the political sentiment there is completely different to the UK for multiple reasons involving a stronger anti-german socialist front which formed due to ongoing manipulation an "de-Nazification" after losing world war 1. As well as heavy demilitarization. The US specifically has been doing everything in their power to keep Germany as defenceless and in discord as possible while retaining a strong military presence. Years of sabotage, literal brainwashing psyops and political meddling are responsible for an underfunded, incompetent and nepotism dominated military culture.
The BW is not structured and the population not willing to support the same niche as the UK or France does. Pretending Germany should just suddenly live up to that out of nothing is dangerously low IQ. The reformation of the German army will take decades, billions and billions of euros and help from the outside.
>world war 1
meant world war 2, in case you're gonna be a moron and focus on that typo
>The final stage
Acceptance.
I don't see a reason to ignore the reality. It's sad but delusions will not fix your problems - instead you will end up like Russia. Humiliated, over your head and close to a total collapse.
Worse, you'll end up like Britain with roving rape gangs.

This has only been the case since the 90s. In the Cold War West Germany had 3000 tanks of all types
It did but the Ossi invasion after the Wall fell finished off West Germany which had no ideology to match the leftists from the East.
Sad as West Germany was a pleasure to defend but the West Germans of that era are elderly or dead. Perhaps their roach bulls will inject some strength into their society but the spiritual leadership of Europe moved to the nations who actually objected to Soviet rule (Poland, Baltics etc). West Germany was remarkably chill, well-kept as befits people who cared for their nation and even the commie protesters were polite.
Wessis were creative too. There was a scheduled anti-GLCM protest at my base (Sembach, which had no GLCM) but the farmer who tilled the area by the flightline gate fricking drenched the fields in liquid and solid manure. We had to roll up our windows on the flightline side but no protestors showed up because the stench was amazing.
It was so nice defending appreciative people vs. deconflicting homicidal ragheads who prefer decapitating each other to food, sex and oxygen.
>the spiritual leadership of Europe moved to the nations who actually objected to Soviet rule (Poland, Baltics etc)
Nobody there is leading anything, anon.
Here's a prime example of such a degenerate /k/ larper who compares stuff that is being in service since decades to a new weapon system that has only been put out for testing. The only vehicle you remotely could compare the Puma to is the Ajax and we all know how that would turn out.
Sorry to upset you but if you could read correctly and weren't esl, you would have noticed I asked for large armoured deployments.
It didn't have to be Puma Marder would have sufficed. But you don't have any of those working either, sad. Feel free to prove me wrong.
Or let's see 30 Leopard 2 on exercise you've had them for decades, should be easy right.
I don't even get the point. Everyone knows germany is governed by anti-german degenerates since the 60's who used to money from the defense budget for everything but the military and shit their diapers as soon as upgrading the Bundeswehr is even talked about. Imagine you army being under command of a british hating degenerate for decades. Literally what's the point you're trying to make?

Lol nibba what. Britain is defacto the King of Europe militarily speaking in terms of donations and individual capabilities.
This is some serious cope.
Name one major British system sent. NLAWs are ok. Starstreak didn’t end up doing much
>M270s x9
Sorry you cannot compete
Didn’t Germany send MARS
3 MARS 1 much inferior to the UKs M270B1
More than 3 MARS2 and they have twice the capacity of HIMARS while being more cumbersome as a result.
and the UK's M270B1s are the superior model to the MARS, so frick off
and is the MARS German?
>Gepards have been basically nowhere for most of the war

meds
you first, Dennis
>and the UK's M270B1s are the superior model to the MARS, so frick off
MARS2, anon, which is a variant of the M270B1s without much of a difference. What's your point?
>is the MARS German?
Nit him but the MARS2 is the continental version of the M270B1. M270s were designed by Lockheed Martin, KWM, Rheinmetall and some French company while MARS2 is basically the same with an EFCS.
>Which is a variant of the M270b1
You stupid Black person
>Mars2 is akkktually continental version of B1
When In reality
>MARS II / LRU / MLRS-I is a European variant of the M270A1 involving Germany, France, and Italy.
The British version has better armor Better protection from mines and is a better vehicle suited to nations that fight wars, unlike Germany.
Sit down idiot.
>barely a difference
>no meaningful difference
How many MARS, HIMARS or BongMARS have been lost?
None?
So I guess it makes no difference, eh?
German MARS was scrapped on delivery due to it missing every part but the steering wheel, the rocket pack was also found to contain broom sticks painted grey with red tips.
Kek come on bro
One of the "failures" was the heater not working because some moron forgot to turn on that ot does so automatically and didn't do it by hand.
Another was due to some moron kicking a computer screen.
That's not true but I'm happy you've had fun. Did you get to try out any cool gear?
>That's not true
OK let's not argue I will post one image and you post one with equal value and the picture with more vehicles on exercise wins.
I did have fun but not as much as at BATUS
Your proposed game seems to have no orobative value in regards to your claim.
What a weird thing to come up with.
>Germany has no more than 5 Pumas to train with at one time I've seen it for myself they get mogged by us bongs on there own turf
You denied this and I asked you to post a large exercise deployment of Pumas or even Marders for that matter, but you didn't and can't because it doesn't happen.
I missed out of CERBUS 22, Look it up its also another huge British lead exercise in Germany with 800 armoured vehicles all in use.
You don't compare, post a big party or frick off.
>Ex Cerberus 22 is the British Army’s largest field exercise of 2022 with nearly 3500 troops and up to 800 vehicles involved.
You don't even have moving targets on German ranges you rent ours lmao
>You denied this and I asked you to post a large exercise deployment of Pumas or even Marders for that matter, but you didn't and can't because it doesn't happen.
Anon, my willingness to google pictures for you has no impact on reality.
Thanks for your concession, Germany doesn't train in large battle groups because it has no ready armour and your availability is less than Egypt.
I tried to find an image and couldn't, just some Marders ready for scrap with no cannon lmao

What is the most funniest - all these /k/ degenerates have literally no idea how putting a new weapon system into service works. They want those failures to materialize during testing - the problem here is the number of vehicles is too small. Germany should've ordered 1000+ and we wouldn't even talk about it anymore. With only 20 for testing this will take considerably longer than is usual.
>without much of a difference. What's your point?
the 1st post I replied to compared the MARS vs the HIMARS instead of the M270b1, while the second pretended that the M270 is an American design and thus "not counted", implying the MARS isn't
I don't got a horse in this race but it's clear that someone's twisting around to paint a narrative
>the 1st post I replied to compared the MARS vs the HIMARS instead of the M270b1, while the second pretended that the M270 is an American design and thus "not counted", implying the MARS isn't
Wat
I feel like either you misunderstood somebody here or I missed something because that sounds all kinds of moronic and at least one of your replies was to a post of mine that had nothing to do with that.
You got the numbers wrong and it's basically the same machine, both designed by Germans, Frogs and Americans with no british involvement.
M777
I thought those came from US stocks. The m270 is an American design but you counted it as British aid because it came from British stocks.
>1st to send aid to Ukraine
>2nd biggest donator to Ukraine
>Trains tens of thousands of Ukrainians every few months
>Conducts constant ISR with aircraft no one else but the US can compete with
How can you be so uninformed.
Should have sent rapiers. You blew it
I'm not British. I guess they didn't send Rapiers because they just retired them and don't have many Sky Sabre systems yet.
Sort of yes, but Germany is a special case. Germany spends almost as much on its military as France, and have no where near anything like France in capabilities. And thats not because the Frogs are especially awsome, its just that Germany are actually horrible when it comes to anything related to its armed forces. Hell, Im pretty sure a place like Poland could beat Germany, and they spend like 10% of what germany does on its military.
it's not a true Germoid, it's the same seether who plagues /k/ with the same ol threads. he got banned for a while but now he's back.
Imagine being this obsessed you cry about Germany in every thread with the same weird disconnected squealing.
Imagine being so upset you can’t handle the fact that the Bradley is superior to the marder.
I'm not the guy arguing about it here.
You seem upset.
>German crying
>No by my mental gymnastics it's actually u who I'd crying ja!
>Continues to cry
Yeah
Their superiority slant never got beaten out of them even after they lost WW2.
Seems to mostly be israelites, bongs and poles seething.
Used to just be bongs and israelites. Who knew the main reason for brexit would become their staunchest ally in autistic internet spergouts. Armatard really buckbroke them with the ajax threads and they've never forgiven Germany for random people spamming
>should've bought German
In those threads.
I wonder if armatard is proud of himself.
Marder also has the advantage of the option to fight out of the infantry compartment. Big hatches on the top. In afghanistan germans used to put wire and sandbags around for added protection. I think this would work well when attacking trenches.
Doesn’t make up for the shorter ranges and less armor penetrating capabilities of marder’s armaments compared to the Bradley.
Weird cope.
It’s better to be able to kill at longer ranges than to have troops popped up shooting.
It's not an insignificant advantage, and fits nicely with the different ways the two vehicles are going to be used, but it doesn't work great. The vehicle is a big target and human arms and eyeball don't make for good stabilization. But when you consider it seriously and set aside the shitposting it becomes obvious that Marders are going to be used in a more aggressive fashion while Bradleys will favor longer engagements, and that just cements the role for Marder.
It’s a very insignificant advantage.
>pavels have a new weapon system to cope over
I don’t know what is more ridiculous, the low quality bait threads or the amount of BS being posted in them.
While a small but very dedicated subgroup of anons keep sliding the entire thing with pointless shitflinging over some OS available stat of any one piece of equipment is better in some dreamed up outlier case scenario, the bigger picture gets blurred.
Both IFVs are very good at what they are supposed to do within the doctrine they were designed for. Both are optimized for slightly different expected combat conditions which in both cases differ from what we are seeing in Ukraine. Both are just small pieces in a much larger machine which is the mechanized formation they are part of. Comparing them based on paper stats is pointless. They both have advantages and disadvantages and in the end, the performance of each individual vehicle on the battlefield is determined by many outside factors.
The far more interesting thing to observe will be how each formation will fare against the challenges they are facing. Don’t kid yourselves. When countries are starting to send equipment in batallion batches, they are training and equipping at least brigades worth of Ukrainians. So we will see German style Panzergrenadierbrigade type formations and US HBCTs. It will be very interesting to see how each formation will work along the lines of their respective doctrine and what missions will be assigned to the individual formations.

How you people haven't suffocated on your own spit yet is beyond me.
Stupid wording kys botBlack person slide threader.
I don't get why they don't give Ukraine the Strykers with the 120mm mortar and some of that spotter drone to targeting system integration stuff.
Seems like firepower is what they need, and that's a lighter way to get it and the Stryker is going to be phased out anyhow. They could even convert other versions over to the mortar or the ATGM version.
The other problem is, 155mm shells just aren't enough to break entrenched defenses. They need more firepower for punching holes than a 95lb shell. I know they are getting JDAMs for 500 and 1,000lb bombs that will let them drop them miles out, but IDK how much they can really afford to carry out strikes at this point. It seems like some Strike Eagles could really help here.
End of the day, a bunch of dug in concrete and trenches in your way, 15 1,000lb bombs, maybe some thermobarics, are going to blast a hole for you way better than an artillery barrage.
Too much cringe in this thread.
MARS, MLRS, M270 are all the same vehicle/launcher. HIMARS fires the same rockets as well but only 1 pod instead of 2.
25mm > 20mm. I dont even know why it's questioned. The 20mm can carry more ammo is bs as well. Bradley 25mm carries 300 rds ready to fire. 225 he and 75 ap. Marder has less ready to fire i think.
UK has not donated as much as Germany. UK was just more enthusiastic and earlier with their donations but haven't donated as much as the germans.
No, you don't understand. The british version of the weapon non-Brits (mostly Germans) designed for brits is better because it has armor other countries did not deem necessary.
That is clearly proven by all the less armored versions of it being destroyed. Trusted Eussian sources have posted many exploded HIMARS.

>UK has not donated as many loans to buy German equipment that won't be ready until the war is over.
Ftfy, bilaterally the UK blows Germany out of the water also the equipment they donated is superior and more in number.
>muh loans
Can you tell the rest of the class how much of Germany's and the EU's financial support consist of loans that were used to buy systems that will only be delivered in a few years instead of, say, loans and direct donations used to buy ammo, drones, fuel or weaponry Ukraine has already received after buying it with the money?
>100 pzh2000 cost €2bn delivery date post war
>18 rch155 cost €200m delivery date post war
>8000 Rgw90 €40m delivered
Here bro just use my money to buy my things that won't get there in time, also remember you have to pay me back too.
Do you mind if I note this down as a donation?
Imagine what the other loans are like lmao
>a bit more than 2 Billion
Wow, now only about 30 billion are left.
Of course the EU (meaning Germany among others) also sent over 3 billion in direct military aid, but let's just ignore that.
So what did Ukraine spend the other 30 billion in financial aid it got from Germany as a nation and the EU as an institution on?
Pensions, debt service, their government employees. You know, the stuff they would have spent taxes on if there wasn’t war in the country.
I don't see a breakdown. Are you just guessing, anon?
€30bn? Lol the inflated EU number is only €12bn so that makes it €9.8 combined to the UKs €7.2bn. Sorry your so ill-informed.
UK gave €4.2bn solely for Military aid, Germany only gave €2.3 try to keep up.
>You can't do Germany won't deliver
>100pzh2k, 18 rch155 as part of aid
>Won't arrive until after the war
Can't I?
Sorry dude, your German autist, goal post moving and sly EU number inflating tactics don't work here.
30 billion, feel free to look it up right now. Check the website, scroll a bit until you see the breakdown.
>UK gave €4.2bn solely for Military aid, Germany only gave €2.3 try to keep up.
2.3 in materiel. The UK gave 1.9, the rest is financial aid explicitly for military purposes so it counts towards military aid.
German financial aid not being explicitly only for military purposes doesn't mean it's not used for it, in fact, you yourself mentioned about 2 billion that went towards weapon procurement. Though the question is purely academic since money they don't have to spend on other stuff frees up capacities in their budget for military applications anyway.
>Can't I?
You can't, you're also still missing quite a few billion that aren't accounted for.
Getting frustrated?

That is impressive moronation lmao
>The Kiel chart doesn't include the future comitment for the UK like it does for Germany.
There is no commitment by the UK.
You keep mentioning the UKsaid it would keep up it's level of commitments in the next year, but that's a broad announcement, nothing more, nothing binding and nothing concrete. Scholz has already said German commitments wouldn't be reduced in the future as long as it takes so if we do brainlet math like yours Germany has committed infinite money.
But that doesn't work because neither country has committed to anything with it. Stay desperate, bong shill.
>Scholz has already said German commitments wouldn't be reduced in the future as long as it takes so if we do brainlet math like yours Germany has committed infinite money.
When do we get daily mail articles announcing German superiority as an ally? Bong logic is wild
Are you moronic? We are talking about Germany and EU inflated number €12bn and it's (actual) bilateral number is €5.4bn in comparison to the UKs.
>UK hasn't committed anything just broad announcment
Its pretty clear, to match or exceed current donations current donation x2 or above.
Let's not get bogged down with Scholz bullshittery, we all know Germany is a joke and cannot do anything without a spiders Web of lies and feet dragging. BTW how's the €100bn fund for the military going I heard its been back tracked already lol
He still doesn't get it lmao
>BTW how's the €100bn fund for the military going I heard its been back tracked already lol
Last time I checked 81 billion had already been assigned, it went through parliament successfully as well so no backtracking yet.

2. EU aid like I've said before is riddle ld with clauses and stupid rules like buying 100 Pzh2k for €2bn+ that won't be delivered for another decade.
3. UK military aid is nearly double what Germany has given to date, just because your adding all the fantasy loans and shit that hasn't happened yet to make yourselves feel better doesn't change the fact €4.5bn of acutal material from the UK is in Ukraine right now and only €2.3bn from Germany is there right now.
Nah Britain put its big dick on the table right away without fear
Germany is the little dick who was too shriveled to get it out straight away and instead went home took a picture of it, added some filters and abit of photoshop reappeared nearly a year later and said GUYS LOOK IM WINNING!
Your a homosexual nation, you wouldn't have done anything unless pressured timing is everything if you help a man when he's starving it's infintatly better than giving him a meal ticket and a promise for next year.

According to your EU fabricated chart The EU has done more for Ukraine than the USA. Are you that fricking dumb you believe that too?
That France Spain and Italy have contributed more than Canada? Just check the wiki and give your head a shake.
You still cannot accept 25mm bushmaster is superior to 20mm, that the dyal TOW fired from the Bradley is better than the Milan.

You were objectively wrong according to your own source. The 100 billion stand and will be spent, just like every other acquisition program it won't happen immediately and due to the size and the nature of it being outside of the regular budget it won't happen all at once either.

You were wrong. Learn English.

>that longform cope
Lmao, do you actually expect the guy to read your pathetic attempts to pretend the UK giving money that had to be spent on military purposes making up more than half of its military aid counts as aid but both Germany and the EU giving way more money that can be spent on other things (or military acquisition as we know they've done) doesn't and still take you seriously?
I got 2 points in, I wonder if he'll get to 3 before he just starts laughing at you as well.
Wait, actually you believed 100 billion being spent in waves means it's nit being spent at all because you didn't know the term tranche so you might actually be that delusional.
Germany spends as much as France on Defence, but is missing;
1x Aircraft carrier
10x Nuclear submarines
2x Nuclear delivery systems
280x Nuclear weapons
Working vehicles
Working ships
Working submarines
Working helicopters
Working aircraft
Why?
Because unlike the frogs, Germany is sending so much to support Ukraine.
Kek, is that your new goalpost after getting BTFO'd by your own source?
How many threads did you post that shit about backtracking in? How many people rightfully laughed at you?
>1x Aircraft carrier
>10x Nuclear submarines
>2x Nuclear delivery systems
Lack of colonies and overseas interests that would require power projection capabilities on the other end of the world and nuclear arsenals are expensive as shit to maintain, nukes can be created in about a month in Germany if necessary but the current and foreseeable situation simply do not make it necessary. Can you name a single realistic scenario where nukes would be required or even helpful?
>Working
They do the bare minimum in some cases, in others more and it's set to noticeably improve.
>why
Lack of necessity. It's still not really necessary but it's good capabilities are being beefed up again in case that changes.
As you might remember, Germany hasn't been in a real war for 80 years (and neither have France and Britain).
Kek
Did anybody get court martial'd for that pic?
Reminder:
Financial and humanitarian aid is as necessary as materiel deliveries for a war, Stalin understood that, FDR understood it, even the fat golem Churchill understood it.
You don't.
And Germany has given about twice the amount in aid compared to Britain.
>Germany has given twice the amount UK has
Again no they haven't lol what the UK has given is there in Ukraine double the amount of military equipment Germany has sent. Germany, like the rest of the EU has tacked on the new statistics coming from loans meant for products that won't be delivered in time for the war and aren't very usefull.
France is only marginally behind Germany on that chart, which doesn't make sense because in reality France has sent barely anything to Ukraine. But try telling the autismo krauts that.
Nah just a point about how riddled with corporate corruption, red tape and mismanagement of funds the German military/government is, this also seen in the donations.
>Lack of Carrier nukes etc
>B-but we don't have colonies
OK sweet so you would spend all the money saved from that on land forces and airforce etc?
But no Germany while spending the same has less equipment to hand. How is that possible?
>Germany hasn't been in a real war
Germany hasn't even fired a tank shot in anger in an actual conflict since ww2 its pathetic really.
Holy cope lmao
Reminder that Germany sent more military equipment, pure military aid is only higher for Britain due to financial aid explicitly given for military purchases counts as military aid only.
Meanwhile Germany has given about twice the amount the UK has and plenty of financial aid which can also be used to buy weaponry.

Doesn't exactly scream first world, does it?
Germany sent more equipment, most of the "military aid" is financial aid with military purposes by britain.
Germany also sent more financial aid.
There are also plenty of funds and many smaller projects to send aid by the EU, including military equipment.
Keep seething.
>groomed, raped and prostituted
This sucks, but 1million is a figure pulled from someones ass.

Everything you wrote is wrong, but just to remind you, Germany sent 2,3 billion in equipment, Britain sent 1,9 billion according to November numbers. The rest is financial aid by the UK which counts as military aid because it's explicitly only for military purposes.
Of course those numbers have risen since then (in Germany's favor).
Seething. And the guy you're seething st isn't German.
Man, brits are so thin-skinned lmao
Meanwhile in reality Geemany has sent more and better kit than Britain.

This is irrelevant because the 100 billion are explicitly not part of the regular budget.
>Only a comparably small first tranche of a massive €100 billion special military upgrading fund is expected to be paid out.
Expected by whom and when? Most of it is already allocated, including, after the latest revision, a lot more for ammo.
But the money isn't spent yet because no ammo has been bought yet and deals are still being made with the industry. Rheinmetall has been building 2 new ammo facilities,one in Germany and one in hungary, due to it (maybe more but those are the ones I heard of).
But the feds haven't spent any money on ammo itself yet, even if they told the industry that they will.

No idea why you've been seething the entire thread but that stuff is pretty normal to do.
Meanwhile Germany pledged 2,3 billion in military equipment of specific items committed.
You can't even do the whole
>German aid never arrives
Shtick anymore because all the big stuff has arrived.
The numbers are from November and Germany has pledged a lot more than the UK since.
1. You're not counting all the eastern european stuff that is given to Ukraine that is paid for or replaced by Germany
2. EU aid also has a lot coming from Germans also while none from BREXIT BRITS.
3. UK is enthusiastic and early with their military aid. Germany was more passive and reluctant with their aid. BUT in the end Germany ended up contributing more.

Well,l did you seriously think they'd give up the 80 or so upgraded 1A3's they still use themselves? If yes you might be moronic,
Actually, since they're being replaced anyway, the German defence minister announced today that they'd be coming out of active stocks. There should still be a thread up about it right now.
Because the USA will support the deliveries after donation and will make sure they arrive in a quick and efficient manner. Germany will make sure they arrive by the next fiscal year and won't provide much (if any) after donation support. Much like the Gepards ran out of ammo. If the USA donates something, it works and will be supported onwards. If Germany donates something, it's done because of international and internal pressure.
>Much like the Gepards ran out of ammo.
But that hasn't happened.
Spend less time on twitter, your post is moronic.
>But that hasn't happened.
Source?
Black person you can't prove a negative, that's logically impossible.
Ammo deliveries are less than people would want them to be due to swiss judaism, but Rheinmetall bought an entire company (swiss or spanish, something with S) and set up a separate factory in Germany to produce more ammo. They also wanna set up another one in hungary. Maybe they're already doing it.
Either way, Gepards still have ammo, likely less than they'd be comfortable with for a great offensive right now, but not only are you wrong as hell in your post, you're also gay.
And you missed the recent gepard footage somehow.
The Bradley being able to fire an ATGM without the commander having to expose most of his body is a big advantage.
It looks so much fricking cooler though
It's up there with the Chieftain rolling around downtown Bagdad with an M4 on the turret roof next to him because it was faster to bring on target than the pintle-mounted M2.
You can use the Marder missle without exposing anything but the missle tube though. Which is a distinct advantage if you consider both missles being wire guided and flight times.
You can also mount any ATGM you like with very little modification.
Anon, they just strapped a tripod onto the turret.
Pretty sure you can do that to any vehicle if you want.
The Bradley oth the missile launcher is integrated into the FCS.
Marder isn't even really an IFV tbh, at least not when compared to the Bradley
I can't believe we have to waste our time trying to explain how 25mm>20mm
And how having an integrated, armored 2 tube long range missile launcher is better than having a single tube medium range tripod missile launcher strapped on to the turret
God i hate annoying germans
>like a whole day and 200 posts worth of seething over krauts
Damn you homosexuals are autistic
This is /k/, and it is a thread about IFVs, so it follows that much arguing about 2nd rate militaries will ensue.
Armatard and warriortard have permanently buckbroken bongs for any IFV related threads.
Their trepidation and autistic screeching have become instinctual.
I thought warriortard was the guy making all those IFV threads.
I think warriortard might have killed himself after realizing he inspired the shitskin who spams the obnoxious German Wunderwaffe threads to get people to hate Germany.
Jannies have finally started deleting them but they tend to get to over 50+ posts due to tourists from poles of bongs pouncing on them like a Black person on a goat.
What a tangled web we weave.
