Long distance relationships? So far so good.

Germany to buy U.S. Tomahawk missiles as Berlin builds long-range strike capability…

Germany already produces the Taurus cruise missile, but its operational range of roughly 500 kilometers (311 miles) falls well short of that offered by the Tomahawk. Depending on the variant, Tomahawk missiles can reach targets at distances several times greater, providing Germany with a substantially expanded strike envelope while European alternatives remain under development.

That means air defense.

Germany expands missile defense network with second Israeli Arrow 3 site – The Arrow 3, one of Israel’s most advanced air defense systems, is capable of intercepting ballistic missiles at altitudes of over 100 km. and with a reported range of up to 2,400 km…

The Bundeswehr announced on June 30 that the second Arrow air defense battery site would be in the greater Kaufbeuren area of Bavaria and will house the ELM-2080 Green Pine Block C radar to detect and track threats.

The second location would complement the initial battery located at Fliegerhorst Holzdorf/Schönewalde, south of the capital of Berlin. That battery was the first time the system had been deployed outside of Israel.

Developing long-range thinking is quite another.

German chancellor promises to help Ukraine produce long-range missiles – Germany’s new chancellor, Friedrich Merz, has told Ukraine’s Volodymyr Zelensky that Berlin will help Kyiv produce long-range missiles to defend itself from Russian attack.

“We want to talk about production and we will not publicly discuss details,” he said, when asked by reporters in Berlin if Germany would supply Kyiv with its Taurus missiles.

That means rearmament.

US to send Tomahawks, hypersonics, other long-range fires to Germany – The U.S. will start deploying long-range fires units to Germany in 2026, according to a joint statement from both the U.S. and German governments released today amid the NATO Summit in Washington, D.C.

The new capabilities will “have significantly longer range than current land-based fires in Europe. Exercising these advanced capabilities will demonstrate the United States’ commitment to NATO and its contributions to European integrated deterrence,” the joint statement reads.
