AfD Kompakt, April 28, 2022.
The Gepard is a solid, near-range anti-aircraft system, but
only with a high state of training for the crew in specific conjunction with
other troop elements, and when sufficient munitions and maintenance have seen
secured. These prerequisites for the mission in the Ukraine armed forces are at
the moment not, or not sufficiently, at hand. I thus venture the prognosis that
the Gepard will not be employed in the Ukraine war. In my view, it is a
question of a placebo so that the Federal government need not appear with empty
hands at the donors conference in Ramstein. This confirms the AfD delegation’s
basic scepticism in regards weapons deliveries to the Ukraine.
