Whilst Poland recieves it's second batch of 180 K2 tanks to reinforce its north-east border, part of a 1,000 unit total order from South Korea, the UK is withdrawing it's 14 Challengers from Estonia's border with Russia, in place of drones & an as yet undefined & untested doctrine, as it transitions down to only 148 tanks (enough for 2 regiments down from 3).
Little wonder Poland is being taken far more seriously by the US in its Europe Posture Review, and NATO 3.0 discussions.
Whilst the UK has the highest energy costs in the developed world, a stagnant labour market, industrial deindustrialisation, & a defence mindset rushing towards drone warfare at the expense of traditional, proven, tested platforms, countries like Poland are leading the way in the future of European defence.

🇫🇷🇸🇪 France is ready to export the MdCN naval cruise missile to Sweden. This marks a first for this European equivalent of the Tomahawk, with a claimed range of 1,400 km, to Northern Europe. Until now, it has been used exclusively by the French Navy for almost a decade.
@PitBackle belastingen blijven stijgen terwijl we al de hoogste ter wereld hebben en wat je er voor terug krijgt is gewoon lachwekkend. Energieprijzen blijven maar stijgen ondanks de beloftes.
Ik heb nooit VB gestemd maar ik voel nu echt dat er geen alternatief meer is
@PitBackle Is er nog een alternatief? Andere partijen doen gewoon verder alsof er niks aan de hand is.
Energiebeleid om zeep, justitie is de pedalen kwijt, defensie is een opgewaardeerd politiekorps, immigratie en criminaliteit gaan hand in hand, middenklasse wordt verder uitgeperst,...
