Germany Goes to War With Russia

Editor's note: Germany must be angry with Russia for shutting off the gas. Better empty out those weapons storage facilities and ship those weapons to Ukraine. It is hard to believe Germany's Gerhard Schröder had worked on the Nord Stream 2 project with Russia's Vladimir Putin considering Germany's flip on Russia. Demonstrates the inner machinations (war) of the US-UK controlled NATO. NATO wins: there will be no cooperation whatsoever on trade and diplomacy between Germany and Russia. Germany's Chancellor Olaf Scholtz is a NATO boy all the way while Gerhard Schröder worked towards cultural, economic and stable relationships between Europe and Russia. The big German flip under Scholz. Stay tuned as we document these German-supplied weapons getting destroyed over the coming weeks by Russia in this intentionally protracted and lucrative proxy war against Russia.

August 20, 2022

On August 19, Germany announced a new military aid package to Ukraine, including guided rockets and long-range artillery projectiles.

Germany opposed providing Ukraine with lethal aid in the past. Nevertheless, after the start of the Russian special military operation in Ukraine, Germany rose to became one of the top military backers of Kiev forces. In spite of this, Berlin faced some serious criticism in the last few weeks for not shipping enough weapons to Ukraine.

In a statement, the German Ministry of Defense listed the weapons and military equipment which will be supplied to Ukraine as a part of the new aid package as follows:

20 rocket launchers;

70mm on pick-up trucks with 2,000 rockets and laser target designators;

1,592 projectiles 155mm;

255 Vulcano projectiles 155mm;

60,200 rounds ammunition 40mm;

6 lift trucks; 40 frequency range extensions for anti-drone devices;

12 armoured recovery vehicles;

30 MG3 for armoured recovery vehicles.

The ministry didn't specify the type of the 70 mm laser-guided rockets which be supplied to Ukraine. However, experts speculated that it could be Thales FZ275 LGR rockets with Arnold Defense Land-LGR4 Fletcher launchers.

The FZ275 LGR rocket, which is guided by semi-active laser, has a maximum range of eight kilometers and is armed with a 4.1 kg high-explosive warhead.
