    because the us told them that lockheed-martin needs the money. all of this will be wasted on shit like the f-35, which has already been anounced to replace the tornado fighter-bombers germany uses to carry the nukes our government has permantly borrowed from the usa. other projects won't be any better, germany's military-industrial complex is just as much of a giant, hyper-corrupt money sink as america's.

    i mean, it's obviously a good thing that this place isn't going full wehrmacht even with that much money being thrown around, i'm just putting into context what germany will do with 100 billion euro on top of the normal annual 50 billion we already flush down the drain every year for arms.
