2. Also noteworthy: German arms manufacturer Diehl Defence has [completed the production of the third IRIS-T SLM system](https://nitter.net/Bunkerhunter/status/1699100339515908401#m) and it’s set to be delivered soon.

3. >10,000 rounds of Gepard ammunition

   That only lasts a little more than 9 minutes in one Gepard. Need to send more!

4. Scholz is getting cheap, where are the 7,000 tubes of braunschweiger?

5. I think it’s funny that Germany delivered 20k safety glasses in the same week Scholz had to start wearing an eye patch because of an accident.

   I also wish I could paste images/GIFs in this sub so I could post [this](https://media.tenor.com/cyKyQW_xEiQAAAAC/simpsons-radioactive-man.gif).

6. Safety glasses and hearing protection for the win. One can’t help but wonder just how many Orcs will be disabled by hearing or vision loss by the time Ukraine wins the war.
