Amazing how that question wont get the air time it deserves. I think it was Rand Paul or maybe Marjorie Taylor Greene did…where are the rest of them? And why arent more asking the same question?

I think it was Rand Paul or maybe Marjorie Taylor Greene did…where are the rest of them? And why arent more asking the same question? I have gone back and forth on this. I can think of no cheaper way for the US to inflict such damage to the Russians than to have some other countries solders fire weapons we already have. I am not for putting our troops in harms way but the Ukrainians have no choice and so far have been up to the task. I don't like the cash payments mainly because it is shrouded in corruption.

These are obviously having a huge impact on the Russian military, contrary to what they are claiming....f'n liars.

Bullshit ... no reason to scrap those Scrap might be to strong a word but I think a fair chunk of the current Javelin would have been rotated out of service in the next 5 to 10 years which would have made a large chunk of the ones we sent Ukraine just unspent ammunition. So far depending on the source Russia has lost 500 to 600 tanks and even at least a dozen T90 tanks which is the top Russian model. The Javelin is doing exactly what it was made to do and not a single US solder is in harms way......that is a win in my book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Ukrainians survive and even win this a few things are going to happen. Ukraine will end up being much closer to the west in general weather they are in or out of NATO. Nato countries will end up spending more money on their own defense which in turn reduce the amount the US has to invest in Europe. In general I would say the 4000 Javelins and 100 ish Howitzers we send over there will be some of the best bang for the buck the US military has spent in Decades against the Russians.
