You are aware that Europe's forces have been downsized dramatically over the last two decades? Germany is pretty much at it's Limit with just a few thousand troops in Afghanistan and Kosovo. We will get some 200something new Puma IFV to replace the 2000something Marders that we once had (yes, our mechanized infantry will have 10% of it's cold war strength then...the tank hunters with their Jaguars have been disbanded altogether), the Netherlands have disbanded their tank units and cut their air force by 30% and don't even start with the British military which has been butchered. Forget Europe, we thought the cold war is over and everyone will live happily ever after.
