I count 24 countries (maybe I missed one or two in the long list), including the Origin German, Polish and Denmark... but what do the other 21 Countries send to this (seems like) very important most Eastern Europe NATO Headquarters?! If they did not send only 10-50 men pear country it would be far too large for a division, also which weapons do the use or did they used and did the 21 new countries bring any equipment to the Polish HQ for Defense Lines further East?! I only knew about 4 Bataillons which were send to the 3 Baltic States and Poland or Finnland (I think Poland?), with each 1,000 ground forces, infantry equipment (assault rifles, 7.62mm MG's, .50 caliber (12.7mm) larger MG's and mounted on humvees or pickups, hand grenades... for some of the forces maybe even nightscopes. It is more a symbolic act, as Russian troops would kick 1,000 troops in each of the country in the ass, they would have losses too of course, but they would just overrun these states until the states withdraw or standing after a few days of fighting with the back to the Baltic Sea...
Russia is a great Danger, but for example the 4 Bataillons for 4 Countries are really symbolic, even a few full equipped Divisions are far too less to defend East Europe, even with CAS (Close Air Support), I mean the Russians got an Air Force, Rocket Troops (seperated from the Army, means with its own Generals leading them, one of the 7 Russian armed forces).
Lets hope we will never find out how good a Division of 3 Bataillons in the Baltic States with together 3,000 men would resist an full-scale Russian attack, supported from Kaliningrad, I hope that Putin dies soon..... he is intelligent but crazy, he never could accept the extreme power which was lost when the Soviet Union collapsed, it was "The Big Russian", even though they made only ~50 to 55% of the total population in the Soviet Union... he wants as many parts as possible back, in Armenia he already helped several times, the war between Armenia and Azerbaijan would be a clear thing without Russia... a State with giant oil and natural gas reserves and population of ~9.8 million peoples against Armenia without rich oil or gas, only a bit over 3 million people, and Purchasing power it is 8,500$ per Armenia per Capita, while in Azerbaijan we have 18,000$. The "real" numbers are even much harder, Armenia only had a real nominal GDP of $10.57 billion (2015 est.) and Azerbaijan had $54.05 billion (2015 est.). So how can Armenia stand and defend their positions until the peace came and now Azerbaijan is splitted in 2 parts or an azerbaijan enclave is there but they are still "fighting" (right now only with words) all the time about who should get Bergkarabach... Russia got 50,01% of the whole Armenian Pipeline Network and of the Gas Company which sells Gas to the customers, most in the Capital Area of Jeriwan... Azerbaijan GDP will growth to over 100 billion when oil and gas prices recovered together with increasing natural gas output... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kilon22 (talk • contribs) 12:49, 25 August 2016 (UTC)Reply
