[QUOTE="Wolf, post: 147149, member: 199"] LOL's, the wannabee Nazis are going to bankrupt their own country before they get a chance to get seriously back into the war game, as are the Frogs.

The long-term rearmament effort is expected to stretch beyond the 2026 budget. The plan lists about 320 new projects, with roughly half of the funds set to go to German arms producers.
