  1. Croatia is slowly replacing it’s Soviet/Yugoslav armory like mig, mi, BMP, T, Grad with nato standards like Blackhawk, Bradley, Rafale, himars, as most of the old stuff was given to Ukraine.

    Next should be some type of anti air, since the catastrophic incident at the start of the War in Ukr when a drone from the Frontline crashed in Zagreb on a Student center parking lot at midnight and exploding.

    Only damaging property and providing evidence that croatian and nato anti air capabilities on the territory of Croatia are lacking. Drone passed through Romanian and Hungarian airspace and was noticed.

    We can just wait and see what happens next and what Shiny new nato pewpew will my fellow countrymen venture to.

  2. Don’t forget to buy Lockheed Martin shares to get your tax money back

  3. HIMARS proved very effective in Ukraine, so im glad we’re getting those. Too bad theyll be severely outdated when we actually get them. Still incomparably better then the soviet crap we used to field when defending ourselves in the ’90s.

    And since we haven’t reached 2% gdp defense spending, we really should get more western systems like these, systems produced and fielded by other NATO members.

  4. I can only hope that we (Bosnia) also get our act together and start prioritizing safety over wishful thinking. Good on our Croatian brothers and sisters for knowing better! 🇧🇦🇭🇷
