⚑Israel will complete delivery of the Arrow 3 anti-ballistic missile system to Germany on Wednesday, marking the first time another nation gains independent access to the interceptor.

The deal β€” Israel’s largest-ever defense export β€” was signed two years ago and is valued at more than €3.6 billion, covering launchers, missiles and radar systems.

I like your perspective, but that can only bring down the US if the power of the dollar is checked. Literally, the US can out spend almost any country in the world, especially when it comes to conflicts. It's the only country with seemingly unlimited spending power, since it's dollar is the currency of the world economy.
If the war in Venezuela starts, America would simply print dollars from thin air and pay for anything payable. Simple.

Maduro, I repeat, is in deep shit... grin grin


Is that not what I'm saying?

Of course they'll outspend even the entire world, it does not mean they'll produce more or superior weapons. Look how their trillion dollar weapons are performing in Ukraine.

Spending $8 trillion for a weapon system that cost Russia $400 billion and costs China $650 billion is not a good sign. They won't last long.

They spent $4 trillion on unsophisticated goat herders in Afghanistan ($200 billion a year) then imagine how much they'll spend fighting Russia or China.

And you wonder why they're drowning in debt.

"We are not at war with Europe, as I have said many times,but if Europe wants to go to war with us,we are ready right now,in Ukraine unlike in Europe we are careful to minimize damage to civilians,but in Europe I think no one is alive to negotiate"Putin said on December 1.2025

⚑Sudan has offered Russia a naval base on the Red Sea in exchange for advanced weapons and military support, according to the Wall Street Journal.

The proposal, made in October, would grant Russia a 25-year presence at Port Sudan and mining concessions, while allowing Moscow to station up to 300 personnel and four warships, including nuclear-powered vessels.

In return, Russia would supply Sudan’s government-aligned forces with air defense systems and other weapons needed for the ongoing civil war against the UAE-backed RSF.

If approved, this would become Russia’s first naval base in Africa.

NATO is a warmonger that will drive us all into a war with Russia. Russia will react differently to an attack than it is treating Ukraine. People don't understand the difference between a military operation (Ukraine) and real war.

510 Ukrainian children brought to Islamic Turkey from Ukraine under the "Childhood Without War Project" were sexually abused in hotels in Antalya.

β€” Two girls were impregnated by hotel Turkish staff.
β€” The incident was covered up, and the children were sent back to Ukraine.

Europeans accused America of causing the war in Ukraine in order to make money selling weapons. Now Europeans are accusing the Americans of trying to end the war in order to make money out of the deal. Iβ€˜m sure the Americans are also to blame for the pension crisis in Europe.

⚑The target of the Russian Iskander strike on Dnipro was the 3D printing company "3D Pechatʹ Dnepr", which makes parts for Ukrainian UAVs.

This is evidenced by their Instagram profile showcasing some of their products, which include FPV drones used by the Ukrainian military.

⚑Marco Rubio:

If an aircraft carrier of the United States was deployed off the coast of Japan or the Pacific or the Mediterranean, everybody would be happy.

But somehow, if our naval assets are deployed in our own hemisphere, that’s problematic.

If you’re focused on America first, you start in your own hemisphere.

Protoaxen:
The strange part that the propagandists are ignoring is that, even now that Russia is in a war economy, they are only mostly producing cheap copies of Iranian drones and nothing much else. If we're talking about shells, they buying from North Korea, if we're talking about vehicles, such as amored vehicles and aircrafts, they are not producing much and this is assuming that they are even producing any at all.

It's a joke to even compare them to the German and French military industrial complexes. They saw Russia mass produce cheap Iranian drones and they concluded that the Russian industrial complex is better than the wests while ignoring when Russia was begging North Korea for shells and how they were unable to achieve air dominance in Ukraine despite they being rumoured to have "the second best air force in the world". cheesy

Is this how they intend to fight NATO? grin grin grin
Spot on mate!!

Individual thinkers like you and the rest of the "gang" are the reason why i still fraternize with this thread!!


Permit me to further give credence what you have fulgently scripted down

There are currently two things Russia produces more than the West and the US, and that is artillery shells and cheap one-way drones as regards to the war in Ukraine...the US and the collective west have struggled to give these weapons to the Ukrainians, especially the shells!!

Apart from the fact that it is Russia and not the USA that is currently engaging in the largest ground invasion, not seen since the hay days of WW2.

There is a certain factor that is also responsible for such discrepancies. Which i would like to highlight below!!

That is military doctrine, Russia's long-standing military doctrine, which span from the Soviet era places emphasis on high volume of artillery fire and then mass push with armoured vehicles. Russian doctrine stresses massed firepower. It is only natural that they have large stockpiles of shells and possess the ability to quickly mass produce it

While the U.S. is historically more focused on air superiority and more precision systems..
The US is the largest military spender in the world, yet they are not even among the top ten in terms of artillery pieces owned.. The US has never been a mass producer of shells. It was no surprise they quickly ran out of shells to give to Ukraine, even after drawing from it war reserves.. considering the war in Ukraine is a typical war of attrition


South Korea and the North Korea military industries combined are dwarfed by the US defence industry. Yet both countries are the like the boss when it comes to artillery piece and shells, no body has more stockpiles of these groups of weapons than the two Koreans.. this is simply because of the current volatile status of the Korean peninsula. Both nations have invested in artillery pieces on both sides of the border. so because the South Koreans and the North Koreans out produce the US in terms of shells and artillery pieces, are we going to say they have a better defence industry than the US?? or can they out produce the US when it comes to weaponry??

The Biden government gave Ukraine 100 billion dollars. Most of the funds were given to USA MIC to increase production while the military drawdown stockpiles.

Currently Russia is out producing NATO in everything. The USA is struggling to increase production, NATO stockpiles are low.

Thank you.

Let them write to the Russian government and tell them they can run their propaganda for them and see if they would even reply you.

Africa is not the target audience. Even the west does not need African opinion.

One id10t here dey argue say na only artillery shells and cheap drones Russia dey produce in large amounts.

So missiles no follow for weapons abi. Tanks no follow abi?

Russia produces more tanks and missiles than the US and NATO combined.

Is there any weapon more crucial than missiles and tanks?

Can fighter jets fly without missiles?

One characteristic of a person who has been cornered is that they become enraged and defensive. Ever since it has been mentioned yesterday of a list to be dropped and Alex Oloyede allegedly being on the list, you have been exhibiting that characteristic at 1000%. You are an easy pick for intelligence officers.
