- rasz 2y agoDidnt Germany readiness lower while they were not sending any hardware from active duty units? Afaik it was all surplus, excess/spare stocks or fully phased out hardware waiting for salvage (Gepards).
- p2detar 2y agoIf that was true then it wouldn't make sense to drop from 65% to 50%. Also the personnel they train need hardware and ammunition for training. It's a complex problem I'm sure, but the war has played a role here for sure.
- rasz 2y agoPolands >300 tanks (PT-91 and Leos), 200 APCs, 100 Krabs, helis and jets all came from active duty with up to date service records and that somehow didnt have much impact on readiness. Did Germany stopped replenishing stocks? Biden double dipped by booking military assistance to Ukraine twice, once as value send and again for replenishment thus creating confusion with Zelensky wondering where the rest of ~$177B go when they received $75B in hardware.
