Lithuania Will Get An Ammunition Factory!?

- Everyone’s talking about defence and geopolitics these days. One thing I’ve seen a few Lithuanians discuss in the comments section of my videos is the need for the country to develop its own defence industries. Not only will it allow the country to keep more of its military spending inside the country, but it will no doubt also help to ensure Lithuanian and allied forces are well-stocked to deter Russian aggression.

Mindaugas*, you are right
May it be the first step to a genuine defence industry!
Brillant news.
Perfect Perfect Perfect news!
I think its a great idea in the current context, plus, it is very in line with out military cooperation with Germany.
Good idea!! Keep Europe safe. 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Fingers crossed, this deal actually goes ahead and the factory will get built. Europe in general needs to have more military capability which it abandoned for most part since the end of the Cold War. The reality is that there is no such thing as "reaping the benefits of peace" if you don't have military capability. Germany had ~3000 Leopard 2 tanks in 1990. Now it has ~200. It will need to get back into the thousands again to start looking anything more than a joke. The ammunition factory in Lithuania should be just one small cogwheel in the European defence capability.
I'm watching to apply as a metalworker there. Hope it won't be a long wait.
Cool ... good luck with that! Hope you will get all cluster ... not just assembly ... but as well components production ...
Baisogala is a great name for a place of factory as such. A scary end to the enemies. Baisus + galas = Scary + end.
😲
Who else if not us?
Finally something is getting built in this country
Amazing
I know you've said Lithuania can build fast, but if this factory is started and finished and Ukraine still needs supply... Well, I hope Ukraine's prospects are better than that.
It's not only for Ukraine. Nato needs more arms factories in general.
I subscribed.
God news :)
So they have more or less wasted money without solving the issue? Splendid! To make ammo you have to have resources for it, lithuania has NONE, or it's so scarce it's be very costly to dig up and easy to disrupt, you end up importing resources/ammo anyway. Not only that, practice has shown imported products end up CHEAPER, good example of that is Pilos dairy products from poland, 3 times less expensive than ANYTHING Lithuania produces. Or for example drillbits, they are produced in lithuania, raw post production cost is 3 euro, they are instead sent to germany for re-packaging, and they come back to us costing 13 euro. So question remains! What did building the factory solve?
I think it's a good idea, the biggest challenge is the production of propellants atm. Something that the French company Nexter expanded momentarily
One of three
the other 2 in Ukraine and Germany
but how is the supply of raw materials
It is excellent for the local economy, but is now a target for Russia.
Russia targets power plants, residential buildings, malls, etc. So, not enough resources for targeting ammunition factories 😉
@@elva12345 Exactly. Terrorussia targets everything. Let me add churches, museums, schools, kindergartens... So in the end it doesn't even matter.
All East Baltic states are/have been enemies of Orcs and , consequently , targets. All Ukraine as well.
Armonaitės father is "ex" colonel of KGB in Lithuania as some others in Lithuanian goverment...
And who was your daddy? A sergeant of NKVD ?Or a dung-trotter?
Young fella-my-lad , COLONEL ought to be written 😂
And your daddy was a sergeant there , eh ? Or a dung-trotter ?
I hope local pensioners in Baisogala don't start protesting again the factory as that is sadly pretty common occurrence in the country
@Semtino
sadly 90% of the case the fears are overblown.
Baisogala might have ~ ~approximately 500 inhabitants
Including 2 or 3 vatniks. More such degenerates would arrive to yell contra the factory and investment. Mysterious hysterious 😂"fighters for peace " would join in. Instigated by ...
First of all such factory will not be stationed in the town itself. Rather way away from it and other residential buildings. It will not be easy to find the place. I foresee the active involvement of Russian intelligence instilling opposition to it including initiating local protest movement. They know how to do it, it did happen before, and not once.
@Semtino They want to build it in Lithuania - this is the main trigger for Russia. There is no info about factory to be built in the town - safety requirements for such facilities are very strict with vast safety zone around the perimeter.
Lithuania should deffo build its own defence industry, we a small country we should focus on making advanced weapons our relationship with Taiwan would greatly help with that
We should be as self sufficient as we can be, so when it comes to it we can survive for as long as it takes for external help to arrive. The history can yet repeat itself and we can be just 'given away' to ruskies yet again by our current allies (the last 100 years prove that aliances shift from deepest friendships to animocify of cold war).
Also you missed majority of leopards and panzerhaubiz2000 which where damaged are repaired in Lithuania
2 years to late. And making an ammunition factory in Lithuania is not the best idea. It's too close to the russian border. Too easy to occupy.
That's great
Well... this is a big deal! It will helps to develop the local economy and the defensa as well.
Hope this moves at lights speed... I was very happy about Taiwan semiconductor promise was it a year or more ago tried to look that up several times 0 progress from what i could find.
Nice 👍
This is all wonderful news, but why wasn't this done two years ago?
? Because, you are the only one who knew, rushist would attack ukraine, right?!....🤦🤡
But, but, we have another whataboutist over here.
🇱🇹 🫡
Are they sure? It’s, like, between Russia and Russia.
I don't think it's a good idea by the government to openly say where the factory will be located. And like everything, it's should have been done at least a year ago.
Who owns the factory? Lithuania or Rheinmetall?
yes
@@JG-nm9zk Yes what? Told me nothing.
@175jfs5
I think it's a joke. Or second the question. Who invests, owns their part. It must be a joint venture, but atm it's not the central question. We'll find out.
