1 - İsrael ( war for syria control or oil/gas around cyprus & Med )
2 - İran - iraq ( future geo-politics can completely change , we can be at war with 150+ million irani- kurdi - iraqi alliance )
3 - Russia ( İf they advance in full war in balkans
4 - Greece
5 - Grecce + EU ( War for gas/oil in Med, Grecce can bring EU Like france and attacks us ....
1 - not in a million years,we are not Iran,Syria,Lebanon or the GCC countries.
2 - they cant,even if the Mullahs would start it the armies(Iran and Iraq) would surrender after some losses.
3 - If Russia wants a war with us it will come via the caucasus but Russia cant afford a war against us,the economic and military losses would be tenfold of the war in Ukraine.
4 - not logical,no power to even try anything.
5 - Europe is not stupid.

BMC could have produced the Batu powerpack faster, but the transmission part was delayed around nine months, so it slipped to Q4 2026/Q1 2027. Currently, endurance tests are continuing on the BATU prototype. Being serial production-ready is one thing, and actually getting the product with the BATU powerpack is another. Endurance tests might take 2 years, so even though BMC can be ready for production in Q4 2026, the first tank with BATU might be delivered in 2028.

And yet, we need to be ready for all these situations.

It's always better to have more tanks or any other military stuff than having not enough.

Yes,we need to be ready but not with just numbers.
We need to have full combat ready systems/platforms with fully trained combat ready personnel.
Having more tanks without trained personnel is a waste of recources.

I never said not to have combat ready and fully trained personnel. My point was specifically meant on numbers for any military equipment.

And one thing is for sure, if we want to win wars "as easy as possible" then we need massive amounts of everything. No ifs and buts.
