            Does have armor against small arms and shrapnels, you don't need more for artillery.
            >wheeled
            Far lighter, less logistics and maintenance needed, more easily transportable.

            Semi-automatic loader

              >Eurofighter wienersuckers at it again
              We don't need strong A2A to counter the non-existent Russian air supremacy, the Rafale is much better at ground support and deep strike missions than the memefighter.
              Jerking off slightly better turn rates at specific speeds is liquid autism.

          Isn't the CV90 quite old at this point (same for the Leopard actually)? A more modern vehicle would be more future-proof.
          Realistically you'd have two different phases in the creation of an EU army (not necessarily one after the other, but they may progress at different speeds):
          >creation of a shared/unified command structure
          As in, who controls the army? Is it actually one army or several smaller armies with standardised equipment in a defence pact? Would some areas of the military be under this centralised command (like for example the tanker fleet - European Air Transport Command - the navy, a military satellite network, strategic weapons), while others are under national control?
          >creation of a pool of standardised equipment
          Somewhat already in place, thanks to NATO/OCCAR/PESCO. As military equipment gets more expensive to develop and produce, you'll see more shared programs as the European (and western) military industry continues to integrate. But still, it would be necessary to decide how the budget is allocated for R&D and production (for example, is it all pooled together and then spent at the EU level or is it spent at the national level in binding procurements programs like with PESCO/OCCAR?). A method to share funds and production facilities in a more equal manner would be to follow the same structure ESA uses (as in, country X invests Y amount of euros into an ESA program, then ESA will buy equipment worth Y amount from manufacturers in that country).

          yes, but the mk.IV is a very capable IFV regardless

                The polish media, politicians and poles themselves have talked about how Germany is only giving gibs to Poland because actually it's sucking Poland dry by offering Poland products for their money and Germany makes more money through sales to Poland than it gives poland in pure money.

          Eh.
          There are strong demographics here who are afraid of russia, unwilling to make any sacrifices in their way of life, unwilling to be in any way involved in matters of confrontation or even war. The vulgar pacifists of the left and the close-minded egoists of the right align to not get involved in ukraine. And there is a large demographic that thinks we should help, but it doesn't care in the way it should. Because it dislikes military matters and doesn't understand them, and doesn't feel comfortable demanding military aid in stronger terms.
          In the end, the best I can say about germany is - it is not truly malicious, it would not try to align with russia or go against the western alliance. It's just a mixture of ignorant and paralyzed. It hopes everything will go away if we do nothing - that's specifically what Scholz does but also what germany as a whole does.

            The vast majority of Germans are strongly in favor of more military aid and wanted to send tanks from day 1.
            Granted, the latter is mostly because they don't understand the logistical trail of just throwing western tanks in there, but the point is that their lack of understanding clearly doesn't hinder their enthusiasm.
            It's also a large reason why SPD, which won the last election with 26% or so is currently polling around 15.

              And then where are the demonstrations? Where are the calls for Scholz to retire? Where are the strongly worded articles in newspapers, or statements from politicians? There are none. Opinions are not enough, there have to be actions. The ukrainian war is a monumentally important event for the future of europe, and germany is failing it. Ukraine can be lucky there are states like the US, or britain, or poland, because relying on the rest of europe would see them long since occupied.

        Yes well it sounds great until you get to the details of what a EU army actually means and how to implement it.

        I’d structure it so the EU Army is English speaking only. Anyone from Europe is free to join but each nation retains it’s own military in a sort of national guard system like the United States.

        Frick no, this war has highlighted the HUGE differences between European nations. Such as France and Germany being slow and reluctant to act sending the most basic things if anything until very late on in the conflict, compared with the Eastern/Baltic and Nordic countries taking a much stronger and more aggressive stance against Russia.

        Europe is pretty divided at the minute, back in febuary it was the worse we have seen it in a long time I cannot see European nations relying on a collective EU military alliance. Especially given the US and UK are usually more than happy to give out defence pacts and also yano the big one NATO...

            And let's be honest even if they didn't hesitate what the actual frick is Germany capable of? Military readiness is basically zero, they struggle to field tanks they cannot train in any serious number over half of all aircraft are grounded pilots are seriously under Nato recommended flight hours.

        Finland has 0 sway, so does poland but poland also has a ton of historic baggage and slavic infighting. There will never be eastern-european leadership in the EU because while they can set up temporary alliances to tell the west to go frick itself sometimes, they have no leader and all hate each other.

      Tiger HAD is very comparable to the Apache, slightly lower weapon load, much longer range.

      also there's obviously a political interest in having your own weapons produced locally, and the EU together could easily afford to develop even major projects

      Decades of submission to US interests. It's not hard to want a master when your entire political class from the right to the left is being US raised and US lobbyied. The EU is an extension of the US State Departement (so the worst part of the US).

      The people are having none of it look up the referendums for european constitution the french and the dutch people (the only ones that were asked) said a big frick you to it.

      It's coming down though.
      Between the Euro crash (that no one dares speaking of, because it's 100% the result of the russian counter-sanctions and self-inflicted moronation) and the southern countries "frick you" to germany latest "plz give us your energy for free in the name of friendship".

          The € crash is because one thing only: we use to buy our energy from Russia in €.
          We now have to pay them (because we still pay them) in RUB (counter-sanctions).
          As long as we payed in € the BCE could print more € and face no consequences and oh boy did they print some ("quantative easing", etc...).
          And every new non-russian contract from the gulf or elsewhere is in now $ to worsen the blow. Add russia and china getting rid of their € as reserve currency (counter-sanctions)
          And the result is the € value is melting like snow in the sun.
          Meanwhile the RUB is at an all time high.

          None of this shit is rocket science, it's basic economy, but you will not see anyone but fringe type economist mention it.
          Because if a major publication did there would be a risk of a fricking bank run EU wide.

            the fact that all this is coming in after literal decades of ECB homietry despite the massive IT boom, welfarism slowly squeezing free enterprise to death in yurop, and oh yeah the fricking coof has "nothing" to do with it, amirite

            RUB is just the straw that broke the camel's back. all this has been a long time coming

    Change Attack helo out for literally anything else in European inventory.

    Change Rafale to a jet that can actually use most of the European inventory like Gripen or Typhoon.

    Other than that, pretty good.

    I’m seeing a lot of Germanic bias. I can see there being in-fighting over what company from what nation/state wins what contracts.

    No EU army without an EU state. The EU comission does not have any legitimacy to control an army. The european parliament doesn't have enough either. Make a coalition of the willing in europe and form a true state with a single government and a two chamber system. And a lot of local autonomy - states also have a national guard.

    Equipment will be bought from the best supplier, with ZERO considerations where it was designed or will br built. The local entity pays back all the tax money and a given, previously agreed extra sum to the central government.
    If a monopoly structure begins to form, other companies receive "development orders" where they develop gear without actually having to build it in numbers. This keeps the big suppliers on track. National guards can also be made to order from those secondaries, preferably from their area. So for example, the EU army would get german IFVs and tanks, but some national guards get french or scandinavian ones. National guards would be purely for local defense, so there's no big maintenance and logistics problem caused by different vehicles.

    In total, the EU state should have:
    -At least one first rate and one second rate aircraft supplier. Thinking of an expanded dassault and a airbus-saab joint venture here, respectively. So for example FCAS would be all french, but airbus and saab would make a second rate plane in case Dassault fricks up. Both would make a variety of drones (much simpler than true next gen fighters).
    -At least one first rate and one second rate armored vehicle supplier. EU currently actually has three first rates, with Nexter, KMW and Rheinmetall. If Nexter and KMW truly fused, we would have two and let them battle it out who becomes which. Armored vehicles below tanks are actually comparably simple and several other manufacturers could survive as well.

      -I don't know about structures in military ship building, but similar logic could apply. The EU should maintain two carriers and suitable blue and brown water navies, but nothing excessive. Noone has the will to reach parity with america and noone has the will to do adventures in east asia, so leave it at that.
      -The EU will be a nuclear power. Both central army and national guards (if they so wish) can maintain nukes. For example, if poland were ever to join (just kidding) the polish national guard would get nukes so they won't fear being sacrificed by a german-french government. Full nuclear triad with world wide reach.
      -Most other equipment is small fish and production should be geographically distributed. For some stuff, one could imagine several companies producing the same stuff - for example, an FN-designed rifle would be chosen but HK, Beretta and CZ also produce batches of those rifles.

    Isn't the CV90 quite old at this point (same for the Leopard actually)? A more modern vehicle would be more future-proof.
    Realistically you'd have two different phases in the creation of an EU army (not necessarily one after the other, but they may progress at different speeds):
    >creation of a shared/unified command structure
    As in, who controls the army? Is it actually one army or several smaller armies with standardised equipment in a defence pact? Would some areas of the military be under this centralised command (like for example the tanker fleet - European Air Transport Command - the navy, a military satellite network, strategic weapons), while others are under national control?
    >creation of a pool of standardised equipment
    Somewhat already in place, thanks to NATO/OCCAR/PESCO. As military equipment gets more expensive to develop and produce, you'll see more shared programs as the European (and western) military industry continues to integrate. But still, it would be necessary to decide how the budget is allocated for R&D and production (for example, is it all pooled together and then spent at the EU level or is it spent at the national level in binding procurements programs like with PESCO/OCCAR?). A method to share funds and production facilities in a more equal manner would be to follow the same structure ESA uses (as in, country X invests Y amount of euros into an ESA program, then ESA will buy equipment worth Y amount from manufacturers in that country).

      Polish lies as usual. It is poland that antagonizes germany, with their government and media lying about evil germany more often than saying the truth.
      And we do not idolize hitler, we endlessly apologize for hitler.

            If you base your opinion on a country on the actions of PrepHole dwelling losers shitposting on anonymous internet boards, you are terminally moronic. In real life, those are incredibly niche opinions that noone halfway sane holds. There are probably more poles who want to invade germany than there are germans who want to invade poland. So get a grip of yourself. Germany as a whole may now dislike poland (your government is giving us every reason for it) and look down on it (sorry brah) but it has zero intentions of attacking you.

            Most of Europe doesn't really care, anon.

      Nobody in Germany ever thinks of Poland while Poles constantly seethe about Germany, anon.

      And then where are the demonstrations? Where are the calls for Scholz to retire? Where are the strongly worded articles in newspapers, or statements from politicians? There are none. Opinions are not enough, there have to be actions. The ukrainian war is a monumentally important event for the future of europe, and germany is failing it. Ukraine can be lucky there are states like the US, or britain, or poland, because relying on the rest of europe would see them long since occupied.

      >And then where are the demonstrations?
      On the streets?
      You can't expect millions to show up since Ukraine has no intrinsic connection to Germany, but it's not like they aren't there.
      >Where are the calls for Scholz to retire?
      They've been there before the Ukraine war.
      >Where are the strongly worded articles in newspapers, or statements from politicians?
      In the newspapers and the mouths of politicians. You don't follow either, do you?
      Go to welt.de or bild.de, the 2 biggest online newspapers at this time and check their stance in regards to ukraine you lying little Black personjew.
      >There are none.
      That is a lie.
      >Opinions are not enough, there have to be actions
      Because Germany is responsible for the well-being of Ukraine due to...?
      >The ukrainian war is a monumentally important event for the future of europe, and germany is failing it.
      Is it?
      Why? Will winning the war magically enable Russia to win any war against a NATO ally?
      Russia won't be able to wage any serious war for decades after this.
      >Ukraine can be lucky there are states like the US, or britain, or poland, because relying on the rest of europe would see them long since occupied.
      All of them are using Ukraine for their goals, don't pretend it's altruistic.
      I'm not saying that's bad, but your holier-than-thou attitude is pretty disgusting. At least be honest about it.
