indeed. i've been seeing a lot of reports about this for months and germany formally announcing a permanently deployment of the bundeswehr to lithuania in 2027, the first foreign deployment of german forces since ww2. the leak of the operation germany plan was very interesting and does suggest this has been planned for a long time but on a grander scale as a integrated response between germany and poland. poland also signed that arms deal with south korea in 2022. in 2028-2030 is also when the korean arms deal is set to arrive which in total will include: 278 k239 chunmoo launchers(78 more were added to the order in late spring 2024) 370 k9 howitzers 190 k2 tanks 48 fa-50 aircraft recent signs this year point to an expansion to add another 40 fa-50's, 300 k9's and 300 more k2's but those ones are to be built in poland under license as domestic k2's. a korean air force servicing unit is being established in poland to handle the fa-50's by 2026 in preparation for the deliveries. this suggests they are expecting russia to win but they will be so exhausted(probably true to be fair) and need time to retrain, regrow,rebuild,rest,upgrade equipment and stabilise and consolidate all the territories they just took that nato has been granted the time to also ramp up across the board. however a russian victory will most certainly inspire other nations to do the same with their disputes. no doubt nato will support an insurgency and do sabotage to slow down repairs and rebuilds and a "ukrainian government in exile" situation with a "free ukrainian army" that will be trained similar to the "free french forces" will most certainly happen. it will be likely equipped with all the upcoming decommissioned equipment across nato countries as modernisation efforts accelerate across the board.   assuming of course putin isn't retarded and stupidly accepts the kellogg-zelensky "deal" as all that guarantees is a bigger war five years later with nato itself.
