    While being aware of worst case scenarios for Ukraine and Moldova is prudent, and a good argument for why all Western nations should be getting involved as much as possible, this video is mostly fear mongering. It specifically jumps the shark when it gives the Article 5 ‘what if teknikully’ argument allowing Baltic invasion but makes flawed assumptions and uses bad numbers well beforehand (producing 1500 tanks/year now? lul).

      Yeah, that 1500 tanks per year number made me not take the video very seriously.

        Russian factories claimed to have delivered 1,500 main battle tanks this year, of which 1,180 to 1,280 had been reactivated from storage

        They actually ‘produced’ ~300. Pulling out 1200 tanks from mothballs can only be done until stores are exhausted.
