One shot – one hit, dozens of lives saved. A single Taurus missile could have blown Russian Iskander launchers into the micron range. And 35 inhabitants of the Ukrainian town of Sumy would be alive. Mr. Merz, give Ukraine the Taurus!

  1. Germany needs to “sell” those rockets to Ukraine. In that case, Germany is only the supplier. And the Germans will not directly are involved in this war that Russia has started.

  2. Does the Ukrainian Military intelligence had previous knowledge of the location of the Iskander launcher???

    >And 35 inhabitants of the Ukrainian town of Sumy would be alive.

    Ah yes the myth of the wonder weapon (the idea dates back way before WW2 even if coined in WW2)

    If the Army had X it would have done Y or prevented Z

    Better AND More Weapons are welcome for Ukraine now that the US doesn’t want to even sell stuff but this seems at best daydreaming and at worst Manipulation.

  4. Bullshit. The stupid “if this had happened that wouldn’t have happened” narrative.

    According to Trump, if he had been President, the Ukraine war wouldn’t have happened.

    If Taurus had been delivered, the tragedy in Sumy wouldn’t have happened.

    Right, if you think so, break it down to me and everyone else, step by step. From the delivery of Taurus to that bold claim. Sure, a Taurus “could’ve blown the Iskander launcher”, it could also have blown up Putin during his visit to the front. Also, a Taurus could’ve hit the Chicxulub asteroid (wouldn’t have done much, though).

  5. If I remember correctly one of the main issues was the complexity of the targeting system. Basically, Bundeswehr soldiers would have to operate it on Ukrainian soil and that’s a no no.
