It's worth noting that the intended size of the Swedish military is still tiny, compared to U.S. standards. 72 artillery pieces is what they're aiming for, and three mechanized brigades. The U.S. deploys a force of that size as a tripwire.

Pretty strong actually. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alabama_Army_National_Guard https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alabama_Army_National_Guard https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alabama_Army_National_Guard https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alabama_Army_National_Guard
- lambdasquirrel 6y agoYes, and the EU would certainly not sit by. I could've gone into depth about how the Russian army is only able to support maybe 120,000 troops in the field today, but thought it would be pedantic.
