War with Russia

[Pinno718]

I see that the US is selling 500 Patriot missiles to Ukraine.
It would be even better if they actually supply the weapons after collecting the money.

Well. there's an update this: Ukraine may get them by 2030.

Donnie won't be happy that the 3% (or whatever) spending on defence won't be going to the US.
Which was his intention. Nothing to do with defence, but business.

Too late, and unreliable.
Pay the cash by 2030, maybe.

But he has this notion that the USA has paid disproportionately into NATO because he hasn't completed Cat in the Hat let alone read a history book. He sees no purpose in NATO when the very thing NATO was formed for is not in his Russian buddies best interest.

It may be obsolete very soon. A single Patriot costs $4m. Ukraine is developing the 'Terra drone' with the Japanese and these drones cost iro $3000.

Which is why I suggest not handing over the cash. The US is still holding money from various countries for weapons that have not been delivered.
Along with time being a major issue, and warfare tactics rapidly evolving.

Which reminds me of "Professor Liebstrum" in the video (at the start sort of applicable to more recent Presidents)
