NATO has a few thousand Leopard 2 tanks. And we have enough personnel in Europe and even more so as long as the USA is in NATO. And Russia would not be able to win a war against 32 countries. The Russians lose 120 tanks every month and can only produce 20.
I would like to add some background information, particularly on the relationship between the Leopard 2 and the M1 Abrams, as well as the significance of the Bundeswehr’s insignia. The connection between the Leopard 2 and the M1 Abrams lies in a joint development project called the MBT-70 (Main Battle Tank 70). This German-American project, initiated in the 1960s, aimed to create a state-of-the-art main battle tank for both nations. However, technical disagreements and rising costs led to the project’s cancellation in 1971. Both countries then decided to develop their own tanks based on the insights gained from this collaboration. M1 Abrams (USA): The U.S. incorporated technologies tested during the MBT-70 project, such as the hydropneumatic suspension and gas turbine engine, resulting in the M1 Abrams, which entered service in 1980. Leopard 2 (Germany): Germany opted to build upon the proven Leopard 1 platform, modernizing it into the Leopard 2, which was introduced in 1979. Although these tanks differ in their execution, they share the same foundational concepts: high protection, powerful firepower, and mobility. A key element of Western military strategy is the concept of combined arms combat, where tanks, infantry, artillery, and air forces collaborate closely to maximize the strengths of each branch. This approach was developed to counter the numerical superiority of the Warsaw Pact and remains a fundamental aspect of NATO tactics today. Regarding the Bundeswehr’s insignia: The Balkenkreuz of the Bundeswehr is deliberately distinct from the Wehrmacht’s insignia. It was modernized to be less martial, symbolizing continuity with earlier German armed forces while clearly distancing itself from the Nazi era. The current cross is often referred to as the "Iron Cross" or the "Bundeswehr Balkenkreuz." It features a simplified design that draws on the tradition of the Prussian military and the original Iron Cross of 1813, while representing the democratic values of today’s Bundeswehr.
The Iron Cross is a symbol with which the troops identify themselves. From the soldiers' point of view, it is neither disreputable nor contestable. The troop associates the Iron Cross with its original values: bravery, love of freedom and chivalry
this logo means "Iron cross" wich means "Bravery, love of freedom and chivalry" thats the real germany bro, no nazis needed, germans are absolutely prowd of it, all german medals are in form of an iron cross until today also all military equipment had an iron cross, germany was brave and freedomlovers a long time bevore the us discovers the differences between Freedom and speach...(maybe some 1000 years bevore america was discovered on any map, wich also was german, first maps was german, also first books, first plane, first jets, first rockets, first cars, first computers, first antibiotica, without germany, russia and the u.s. were still farmers, nothing more) 🇩🇪🇩🇪🇩🇪
Foundation: The Iron Cross was originally established on March 10, 1813 by King Frederick William III of Prussia to honor bravery during the Wars of Liberation against Napoleon. It was the first decoration that could be awarded to all soldiers regardless of rank, making it a symbol of equality and courage. Revival: The Iron Cross was awarded again in subsequent wars, such as the Franco-Prussian War of 1870 and both World Wars. During the Nazi era in 1939, it was modified with a swastika, which significantly influenced its meaning and perception. Significance in the Bundeswehr: Symbol of Tradition and Bravery: On October 1, 1956, Federal President Theodor Heuss approved the Iron Cross as an identification mark for the combat and aircraft vehicles of the Bundeswehr, to honor the identity-forming tradition of the symbol. It was deliberately chosen to commemorate the positive values like bravery, love of freedom, and chivalry that the symbol originally represented. Controversies: The reintroduction and use of the Iron Cross were not without controversy, as it was tainted with negative connotations due to its use during the Nazi period. There were debates about its suitability as a symbol for the modern German army, but ultimately, the stance prevailed that its original meaning and historical continuity were more important. Current Use: Today, the Iron Cross is not only used on vehicles and aircraft of the Bundeswehr but also on unit flags, medals of honor, and as part of the Bundeswehr logo. It continues to symbolize bravery and military tradition, although it is occasionally associated with historical misuse in public perception. The discussions about the Iron Cross reflect Germany's complex relationship with its military history, between pride in traditional values and grappling with a dark past.
You want to know what the German military symbol is? It is the legacy of the Templar cross. The Knights Templar were the army of the Middle Ages and knights, the name because they were mounted, so they had horses. Knight = cavalry. The German Cross is therefore historical for the Christian Templar army.The Germans are not fighting for their country as such, but for their values. That is the hidden reason why the cross is still used. Every nation fights for its country, but the Germans fight for the deeper values!Basically you can say that the Germans fight for virtues and the others for their ego! Imagine if Saudi Arabia had the crescent moon on its tanks. The Germans are the only Christians. The others only say they are. For example? Why don't Americans have a day off on Sundays? On the 7th day you shall rest, that is the 7th day of God's creation. God himself rests there. That's why the Germans have Sunday off. Americans are not Christian, so they don't know such things.Jesus against the Antichrist (France,England,Russian,USA) The Holy Book in the US is " killing u should for money and oil" Greets from Berlin
Russia might be the largest country in the world, but a population, smaller than Germany and France combiened, about 144million. also, Russia hast the GDP of Italia. That should Not BE the Problem.

The Balkenkreuz originally comes from the Teutonic Order.
