Sweden will send 5,000 anti-tank missile systems to Ukraine. Many of them will consist of the excellent NLAW system.

Sweden has overcome its hesitancy connected to its decades-long neutrality policy and will send 5,000 anti-tank missile systems to Ukraine. Many of them will consist of the excellent NLAW system.



this has to be done 7 years ago, still great step forward !
 
They better keep some for themselves. They might need them!
 
Does anyone know how soon arms will arrive in Ukraine?
 
Swedish news media is not reporting on this, meaning might be fake.

What I do find is this:

they mention 5000 pansarskott. That's ammunition for anti- tank weapons, not anti-tank missile systems. A little different, but Ukraine will need it.

And another addendum here: 500 million Swedish kronor, around 50 million Euros in support might be even more important, giving Ukraine more purchase power.

The only answer right now seems to be more weapons to Ukraine so that more Russians can be killed.
And stupid people thought that the more McDonalds you had in countries bordering on each other, the more unlikely there would be a war between those countries.

Never heard that one.

Stick around and you will learn a lot more .

Now you need to figure out if it is true.

  • Origin In 1996, economist Thomas Friedman came up with what is known as the Golden Arches Theory of Conflict Prevention, the notion that no two countries with McDonald’s franchises have ever gone to war with each other. People in McDonald’s countries, he said, “don’t like to fight wars.

Have Two McDonald’s-Containing Countries Ever Been at War ...

The countries he was thinking of must not have had a dictator.
 
Wali behind a tree or a building picking off Russian officers like in "Enemy at the Gates" is a great idea.
Reminds me of how Americans fought the French and then the British back in colonial times.
Ukrainians know the drill , tons of videos :
