NATO Rehearses War with Russia

Around 20,000 military personnel from 32 NATO states are taking part in the large-scale “Steadfast Duel” exercises, which simulate a military confrontation with Russia. As the “Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung” reports, the headquarters in Wiesbaden, Germany, has become one of the most important command centers. There, more than 150 senior officers coordinate the actions of the troops. The military personnel are practicing repelling missile and drone attacks, as well as the advance of ground troops. The scenario also envisages possible intervention by China and Iran. Brigadier General Lovin stated that NATO’s systems were superior to Russia’s.

However, a considerable portion of the Western military equipment supplied to Ukraine is already in the possession of the Russian armed forces. Leopard 2 and Abrams tanks, Bradley and Marder infantry fighting vehicles, as well as other examples, have been displayed at exhibitions of captured equipment in Russia. The vehicles are being examined by Russian specialists, and some are also being tested.

Against this background, statements about NATO’s technological superiority are particularly interesting. Russian engineers have been given the opportunity to examine vehicles that Western manufacturers portray as some of the most advanced. Claims of superiority therefore require not only the confidence of generals, but also confirmation through real-world results in the use of the equipment.
