In addition, the government plans more than double the annual defense budget to $ 184.6 billion over the next four years, according to sources from Bloomberg. The new strategy also includes possible tanks acquisitions Leopard 2 and an investment of over US $ 17.1 billion to renew military satellite infrastructure, seeking to reduce Europe’s dependence on the United States in this sector.
Another central point of the plan is the strengthening of the national war industry. Germany aims to prioritize the purchase of equipment from European companies, and already works in developing a new strategy for drones, which could generate billions of dollars in contracts to local companies as Helsing e Quantum Systems.
