I don't think it will happen so soon. or at all. They will see what the next aid package and F16 and Grippen can do first. Ukraine seriously in need of ammo, especially Arty shells. We see the result in the loss of Avdiivka because of that. But putting NATO troops in Ukraine is on the table for discussion. For now, Ukraine is not asking for NATO boots on the ground. They are asking for long range weapons, ammo, more weapons and more ammo. Now if russia fire a nuclear weapon in Ukraine, that will be a totally different story.

yishunite Turbocharged February 27 Share February 27 NATO "advisers" in "noncombat" role away from "front" line very possible. NATO done it before. And sure will have invitation of host state so not consider interfering. But it is up to NATO leadership to decide if this crosses putin red line (many other things they did long ago cross his red line but nothing happened lol) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kb27 Supersonic February 27 Share February 27 Well, what do you know ? Probably some backroom wheeling and dealing with Sweden's NATO membership. You don't block me, I don't block you. Hungary orders more Gripen fighter jets Saab announced on Friday that it has finalized a contract with the Swedish Defence Materiel Administration (FMV) to supply four more Gripen C fighter aircraft to Hungary. This agreement stems from an amendment to an existing contract between FMV and the Hungarian Government, originally signed in December 2001, which involved the procurement of 14 Gripen C/D fighters for the Hungarian Air Force. The recent contract amendment, signed by the Hungarian Ministry of Defence and FMV on February 23, 2024, expands Hungary’s Gripen fleet to a total of 18 aircraft. Micael Johansson, President and CEO of Saab, expressed optimism about the continued collaboration with the Hungarian Government and defense industry, emphasizing the Gripen’s contribution to Hungary’s air defense capabilities. Saab’s commitment extends beyond aircraft delivery, with an existing contract for ongoing support of Hungary’s Gripen fleet and readiness to offer further upgrades and assistance beyond 2035. In addition to the aircraft contract, Saab and the Hungarian Ministry of Defence have entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) aimed at advancing high-tech industrial sectors and enhancing fighter aircraft capabilities. As part of this collaboration, efforts will be directed towards establishing a Center of Excellence for virtual reality (VR) technologies in Hungary, signaling a broader partnership focused on innovation and technological development in the defense sector. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they do, NATO won't be just a paper tiger. Don't really want us anywhere near the doorstep of WW3 but please show the world (not just talk) that Ukrainian freedom / sacrifice are worth the lives of thousands of Americans and European soldiers. Whichever way, this won't end well. Actually I am looking forward to NATO troop in Ukraine. Its getting boring😂😂 Won't be ww3 la. Non of other ppl problem. A European war maybe. If America send their soldiers. Maybe a western war. But I highly doubt so. They already kpkb so much when like 3 of their own kenna killed😅 I guess so much for the best tank in the world Leo 2 and m1 . Ukraine fear the M1 being targeted. Until so much it become like a white elephant. At last they are being used. Maybe they are saving the rest for a grand counter attack? Despite russian making big progress recently. I am not ruling the ukraine out yet. Zelensky mention he want to moblise the whole country to fight. If he can do that ukraine stand a chance😉 I wonder what's our army thought on our own Leo 2 a4.

macrosszero Turbocharged February 28 Share February 28 Oh I’m sure the SAF is looking at the combat performance of the Leopard 2 over there. Even countries who don’t operate a platform in the fight (e.g. Taiwan) would be furiously taking notes on how asymmetrical warfare can enable a smaller opponent to keep its larger and more advanced opponent off guard. However to write off the Leopard because of combat losses would be akin to India dumping their T-90 because of Russia’s much higher losses compared to Ukraine; it’s not always applicable because Ukraine’s situation is less than ideal - hurriedly trained citizen soldiers on unfamiliar platforms, without air support let alone air superiority and lack of consistent artillery support. NATO’s equipment were designed to operate in combined-arms situations, not magic silver bullets that can turn the tide of any front they are deployed on and no one should imagine that to be true. ↡ Advertisement 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
