Bloomberg: Germany Draws Up Plans For A New "iron Fist" For 25 Billion Euros

New NATO brigades are being created to deter Russia.

Bloomberg reported, citing sources familiar with the matter, that Germany plans to buy up to 2,500 armored fighting vehicles and up to 1,000 battle tanks (translated by The Telegraph).

They want to create new NATO brigades "to deter Russia," the agency said. NATO has approached Germany with a proposal to organize up to seven combat brigades over the next decade, it said.

If approved by the German government, the force would be equipped with modern combat vehicles and tanks, sources familiar with the situation said on condition of anonymity.

The German government plans to buy Leopard 2 tanks and up to 2,500 GTK Boxer armored fighting vehicles. The tanks are produced by KDNS and Rheinmetall, while the combat vehicles are produced by ARTEC, a joint venture between KDNS and Rheinmetall.
