Why are the romanian armed forces utter garbage using poorly equipment from the 70s and earlier?
What should I do if I get forcibly recruited into one of the nonmotorized infantry battalion,where I get issued a rusty ak with a broken stock,egg cartons for plate armor,expired tins for rations and second hand chinese uniforms?

                You're clearly ESL (and probably Turkish) so let me clear things up for you. Eastern Europe is almost invariably a political term used to refer to countries and not geography. And even if it wasn't, you're claiming Turkey is Eastern European because it owns a small piece of land? Get real.

        The rest of their armored forces are ancient TR-85-800 and T-55AM tanks. All their Eastern European neighbours use T-72 variants at worst

    It all had to do with Ceausescu the communist dictator.
    He wanted to turn Romania in N.Korea 2.
    He wanted Romania to be self sufficient and for that it needed a good army. The problem was the military R&D was dogshit and even if they attempted to do something wild like manufacture reverse engineered T-72s the industry simply wasn't up to the task.
    Ceausescu talked shit about Moscow so no help could be called from the Soviet Union so they improvised like the TR-85 or the MLI-84.

    Than came the 90s and everything went to shit with corruption and lack of funds

      A lot of people, me included, think the Caucasus is not european. So they are not in Eastern Europe. Neither is Kazahstan. I'd say east of Poland/Ukraine, Asia begins. If you dissagree, it's because you are asian yourself. So you don't get to name what is and isn't europe.

    I dont know about you homosexual, but i have a bunch of friends and we go shooting at the range at least three times a year and do hiking in the mountains, some are football hooligans some are just your schoolshooter atuistic chuds.
    All of us are right-wingers and love the Marshall and Codreanu. We hate Russians, Gypsys and Hungaryans.
    We talked about this shit seriously last year and we even bought alot of milslurp gear.
    In case of war with Hungary or Russia we have decided to form owr own fascist Azov like militia separate from the state and military, we would be self-funded and for illegal weapons, buying from Ukraine after the war will be ez since those dumb slavs will be starving.
    Frick the state, form your own militia homosexual, why would you even visit /k/ otherwise?

      Pensions, bribes and corruption. The russian model for short, only with less money on a much smaller scale and alot of grubby gypsys. I wouldnt trust them to field 1/10th of what they have on paper which is already not much and old.

      Your chart references GDP percentage. 2.6% of Romania's GDP (the share the military gets) is lower than the budget of some companies. And it went towards 7 drones, some F-16s, 50 HIMARS, upgrades on tanks and new APCs and IFVs from Switzerland.

    Stealing all the equipment to equip your army isn't as easy as stealing copper wiring or carburetors, so no wonder they are struggling

    It’s exactly like Ukraine’s mindset pre-Crimea, except ukraine had a shit load more equipment and troops left over from Soviet collapse. No need to really update and maintain your military if there isn’t really a threat looming over your nation.
    They’re also poor.

    There’s nothing wrong with this equipment though. They’re as well equipped as all of their neighbors
