Conflict around possible American seizure of Greenland island only intensifies further. However, this doesn’t prevent issuing permits for selling Denmark weaponry, such as AGM-114R Hellfire II missiles and associated equipment for $45 million.
According to a published U.S. State Department permit document, Danes want to purchase up to one hundred missiles, three stationary test missiles, six M299 launchers, two MHU-191/M transport trailers, and three BRU-14 holders. This will also include logistics, support services, spare parts, technical documentation, and software.
The sale is stated to help advance American geopolitical interests and improve NATO security. This is very interesting considering the surrounding political situation around Greenland island, which supposedly needs to be surrendered for White House needs.
Worth noting here: so far most threats sound only verbally, without special practical changes in U.S. policy. Meanwhile, Denmark remains a long-time ally, so there is no need to refuse it weapons sales.
You are vastly over estimating the destructive power of a hellfire if you think they can obliterate a country.
maybe if it has a spoonful of antimatter.
I dunno… Denmark is pretty much just a pile of sand out in the ocean with a camping ground and a mini-golf course.
I’d like to clarify that they’d stil fuck you up royalty if you ever tried to cross the ice.
Well, it really depends on how many Denmark bought, and what the targets are.
45 million would probably be 250-300 missiles
Based upon? Curious.
Not the article for sure, because the article mentions “up to a hundred”. But reading articles is for losers, it’s much cooler to make stuff up.
They cost between 130000-160000 each and I’m kinda just rough estimate because I don’t know the exacts of the deal
Gee, I wonder if we could find this kind of information, maybe by interpreting letters into sounds and ideas…
