    What a great use of public money. Gotta raise the age of retirement though, no money for that!

    They should build them out of bread and cake, in case it’s all they have left to eat in the coming years.

        The Reich flag didn’t really last that long or start that early so there’s still time.

    Six modern ships doesn’t seem like enough to counter an aggressive Russian or Chinese navy. If Ukraine falls, Europe is next. I hope Germany is putting R&D into droneships and anti-ship missiles like Ukraine is doing.

    I would not be surprised if Russia and China form an uneasy alliance in a future war to distract from problems at home.
