Not yet. Depends on how supportive the Biden administration is going to be to Georgia and how antagonistic it will be against Russia.

Curious if Russia would rather deal with a Georgia equipped with American weapons or Turkish weapons.

Not just weapons but Georgia should consider the Azeri model by having trained special forces with NATO standards plus a large fleet of drones

Armenia /=/ Russia. Russia will cruise missile barrage all Georgian assets if it thinks its going to lose either territory.

Nothing is impossible Georgia shot down a strategic bomber with cold War missiles and imagine if Georgia acquired patriot BARAK 8 and Hisar then Russia would not dare using all their air power like in 2008

It depends, Russia is geared towards fighting that exact threat in Europe from France, Germany, etc. What makes you think it can't take out a much smaller threat coming from a neighboring country? Russia is much stronger, and more prepared than it was in 2008.

The only thing that can save Georgia is NATO membership. Their situation is not compareable to Karabakh at all.

According to defence Georgia page Georgia will buy new air defense systems and javelin missiles according to the plan set up by Georgian MOD
And among the combat drones Georgia will acquire will be kamikaze ones (maybe harop)

 

[Ghost soldier]

Plus the abkhazian puppet regime criticized Georgia's intention for acquiring drones by saying that he fears results of drone warfare in karabakh with to happen in abkhazia

 

[Oublious]

Give them Bayraktar and EW systems....
