Merz Blows Up €900,000,000 In Failed Drone Tests In Bid To Catch Up To Putin's Burevestnik, Poseidon

As fears of Russia’s nuclear buildup grow, Germany’s defense ministry faces a major scandal. Berlin has approved a €900 million kamikaze drone deal despite reports of catastrophic test failures. According to Bild, one drone missed its target by 150 meters, another crashed into a forest — yet all three companies, including Rheinmetall which skipped tests entirely, were awarded €300 million each. Critics call it “blind procurement under nuclear panic,” accusing Chancellor Merz’s government of rushing defense contracts as Russia tests new weapons like the Burevestnik and Poseidon.
