Europe doesn't have much will to stand up against Muslims or Russians. It sounds like the UK is thinking of dumping submarines for F-35's...

and Germany.... Germany has decided to buy these:

The Russians must be shaking in their jackboots. With laughter.

Actually, due to its advanced fire control system many weapons analysts consider the German Leopard 2-A7 the top main battle tank in the world today -ahead of the Abrams.

I dunno, AT missile system plus mounted machine gun, highly mobile, small enough to be usable in the European forests, shoot&scoot capable, cheap, I can see raising a lot of hell against an attacking force with a bunch of those

Why mock that weapon for paratroopers and use in the proper environments?

The Wiesel if a very smart and capable vehicle. It was designed to be delivered by helicopter, and has a wire guided anti tank missile launcher in addition to GPMG’s. Small, fast, easily hidden in defilade, and deadly.
