Deep News12-09

German legislators are expected to approve 29 military procurement contracts next week, totaling a record €52 billion ($61 billion).

According to informed sources, the orders cover a wide range of materials and services, including €22 billion for essential military equipment and uniforms, €4.2 billion for "Puma" infantry fighting vehicles, €3 billion for "Arrow-3" air defense interceptor missiles and launchers, and €1.6 billion for reconnaissance satellites.

Sources indicate this will mark the largest number of high-value contracts and the highest government procurement amount ever approved by the Bundestag's budget committee in a closed-door session. The individuals requested anonymity as the decision has not been officially announced.

A German Defense Ministry spokesperson did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment outside regular business hours.
