>Berlin could have bought warships from U.S., U.K. or French shipyards, but the government chose German bidders to buoy employment at German shipyards, according to Ms. Kempin, the defense expert.

Nice job krauts lol

Germans have never been a seafaring people.

And you lot build the best submarines

I have a feeling that our ministry of defense will buy it and attempt to rebuild it.

Just buy one of ours, they aren't for fighting but you'll fish every single fucking fish and mammal out of the goddamn sea.

All the good Germans died with hitler

finally a vessel to transport the refugees back home with

>But experts say military efforts have also been hampered by the lack of a strategic vision for Germany’s armed forces, resulting in vague, hard-to-execute briefs.
>Before the frigate project foundered, a contract to build a new helicopter hit snags, costs for a new rifle overran and an ambitious drone project simply failed to get off the ground.

Top kek

No you retard, they got operation paperclip'd. Who do you think started NASA?

Enough said.

>Warships are important
>Not the fact that our birthrates are basically fucked and we'll go extinct within 50 years if there won't be a radical change

>First time in history they had to return a delivered vessel
Good thing it was just a frigate.
>citing hardware and software bugs.
Probably pajeet coders and other immigrants.

>Brainlet bringing up unrelated shit

This.
Sorry brother.

Brilliant!
That's almost Chinese in its diabolicalality.

This.

Also the fact that our military does not kill people. They only build wells and protect women's rights.

>uk ship
an absolute waste of money that will be completely outdated 6 monthd after its launch
>us ship
made by americans, it’ll fall apart
>french ship
engines surrender at the slightest hint of combat

Naw. Regarding defense and arms, Germany drops the whole "diversity is strength" angle. They're ridiculously captured and corrupt to the point where they killed a few NATO arms standardization efforts because the German entry lost.

>g36 - standard assault rifle doesn't shoot straight when hot -=- mainly in use in Afghanistan
>anti submarine helicopter not save enough to fly above open water... enjoy submarine hunt on land ...

When will they learn, meritocracy is the only system that works.

I mean, honestly? Going back to WW1 and WW2, Germany has always sucked at engineering and weapon design. They just got some Euro pussy pass. In reality most of the shit they came up with was convoluted and dumb as fuck. Overengineered out the ass and prone to failure.

hooray for murrica

A prototype didnt pass customer acceptance test the first time
Shocking news!!!!
The media is desperate for shittalking anything something something military. They want to create a scandal where none is

Don't forget our brave troops building "rescue" camps for those poor (sand)niggers.

Seriously though the Bundeswehr is a joke nowadays.

My heart hurts for you, bro. At least in Afghanistan we were allowed to just kill them on occasion. You folks will soon be over it and back on deck, though, you'll see, and no worries.

I think the best thing about the Western World is that no matter how many times we invade and murder each other, we can still make up and return to being friends afterwards, unlike those woggie cunts.

Who could stop a drone spam nowadays.Best AA wins.

This is the exact same shit that happens in Canada.

>what is signal jammers
Drones would be useless in a conventional war unless fully autonomous.

>the absolute state of germany

The reason for all these costly and failing military projects no matter from which country is that governments are easily exploited and they get new financing every time something doesn't fill requirements.
These people put their home countries at risk for profit and should be put against a wall honestly.

Read about Russian electronic warfare in Ukraine.
Drones are almost useless against a barely capable opponent. Unless they are autonomous, as this guy said.

> Buying foreign weapons
How about no.

The problem is that our government actively sabotages those projects.

I bet it's Flintenuschi's fault.

To be fair the ship builders weren't the problem it was the governments weird list of demands. Seriously they ordered it be able to use in nonviolent situtations and has water canons liked that which are used to deal with rioters.

You dont need it fully autonomous.Autonomous implies it can decide to not attack because there is a child within explosion radios.In case of war you just send it in the right direction,put a faraday cage over its system thats smart enough to recognize a vehicle and then repeat the step like crazy.

Everything you listed only manages to equal things out when you put it on the scales against what a piece of shit the Luger was.

The biggest mistake was to give the warship contract to Irving, which is the biggest legal corporate criminal in Canada.

Anything coming from Irving is quite deliberately delayed in order to be "over-budget", if not an outright fraud, and the quality of the shipyard is mediocre at best.

There is a reason why no shipping company in the world (this is true) ever wants to have to put in to the Halifax shipyard, and the name 'Irving' has to do with a lot of it.

Colins class was good once we started making everything locally and didn't have to endlesdly argue with Swedes.

>too smart to sail

This is what you get when you put a woman like Merkel in control of your society. Top down design flaws.

Merkel will bring jobs back, just like hitler.
