The Cheetah anti-aircraft tank is a decommissioned equipment of Germany, but now Germany wants to send this air defense system to Ukraine for military assistance, the Cheetah anti-aircraft tank uses 2 35 mm gun systems, using the Leopard 1 main battle tank chassis, so it has a strong off-road capability. According to public information, the Cheetah anti-aircraft tank served until about 2000, but now it has become a "fragrant bounty". The war between Russia and Ukraine broke out on February 24, after the outbreak of the Russo-Ukrainian War, the United States and NATO began to supply weapons and ammunition to Ukraine, and Germany, as a member of NATO, also did not give in, providing a large number of weapons to Ukraine, including a variety of anti-tank weapons and anti-aircraft missiles.
After entering April, the United States and NATO for Ukraine's military aid began to increase, so Germany also announced the supply of Cheetah anti-aircraft tanks to Ukraine, but now Germany is facing a serious problem, the Cheetah anti-aircraft tank used in the 35 mm gun does not have enough ammunition supply, for this reason Germany to the rest of the country for help, Switzerland and Brazil currently have 35 mm artillery shells, but Germany's Cheetah anti-aircraft missiles are still "empty", because Switzerland and Brazil have rejected Germany's request. The 35 mm guns of the German Cheetah anti-aircraft tanks came from Switzerland, but Switzerland was a well-known "neutral country" and was reluctant to supply Germany with ammunition for the 35 mm guns.
At the beginning of the war between Russia and Ukraine, Switzerland did not remain completely neutral and participated in the sanctions action of Western countries against Russia, but after Russia launched anti-sanctions, Switzerland's attitude changed, so that Switzerland was unwilling to provide 35 mm gunpowder. In fact, The Swiss 35 mm gun system was exported to many countries and regions, but Germany did not expand the scope of demand. Brazil clarified that Brazil did not participate in sanctions against Russia and would not provide military assistance to Ukraine, and Brazil saw very clearly on the issue of the Russo-Ukrainian war.
Germany to provide military aid to Ukraine not only Cheetah anti-aircraft tanks become a joke, before Germany also provided Ukraine with a large number of oil-paper wrapped 9K38 needle man-portable air defense missiles, which were built in the East German period, has been stored in the German arsenal, after the outbreak of the Russo-Ukrainian War, it became one of germany's weapons to provide military aid to Ukraine, in the face of rusty 9K38 air defense missiles, the Ukrainian army is also quite depressed, Germany really uses oil paper wrapped weapons. Germany is the most powerful country in Europe, the locomotive of the EU economy, Germany and France are the locomotives of the European economy, during the Russo-Ukrainian War, the German economy suffered a heavy blow.
For a long time, Germany originally had its own foreign strategy, but after Merkel stepped down as German chancellor, the German political arena began to turn, as can be seen from Germany's military assistance to Ukraine, although the Russo-Ukrainian war had a huge impact on Germany, but Germany still supported the United States' European strategy. 202205010/Aviation Horizon/AZ, now Europe has become the fish meat of the United States, the United States requires Europe not to purchase energy from Russia, which is equivalent to obliterating Europe's competitiveness, through the Russo-Ukrainian War, the United States has become the final winner, the United States has sold weapons, but also exported energy to Europe.
