Next Major Update - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 3)

No, Netherlands is still a nato country and is supposed to contribute 2% of their gdp. They only save resources on command structure and logistics, which they still need to spend elsewhere to get to the 2%

It’s still depends on if it’s necessary. like japan, lacking cas very much, so add f-16aj and f-5, though 16aj is a bad idea because it don’t exist, but I agree something should be added
but german don’t lack of these things

I meant minus

When did France look at buying Canadian Hornets second hand?

No
The Dutch are still solely responsible for their armed forces, hence why I hate when people say it’s just part of the German army now

Altitude is the one thing where imperial measurements are the internationally accepted standard lmao

Yep. and I just cant operate in war thunder in Metres for alt. No idea why. But Feet just make way more sense (though they really need to fix targeting pods to use distance and not altitude unit of measurement because they dont make sense in feet)

Did the östies ever order bmp3?

I think @someweirdname mentioned it was more like the Dutch had the upperhand in this arrangement.

Bitte

Whoever got the better part of the deal isn’t really relevant in this case.

The point is just that the Dutch army is still their own and independent, but has a far greater deal of cooperation with the Germans than most other countries have among one another

Yeah i know, i meant it to supplement what you were saying. I know people are going to think it’s more of a big country absorbing the smaller country but it’s nothing like that.

Aye fair enough

How did they order them if the export version only got developed in 1991 (2 years after the Berlin Wall has fallen).

They were 1st in line as the shock troops of the WAPACT.
