Trash.

1 - Paying to import fighter bombers that are supposed to drop nuclear weapons. Except you don't control the bomb trigger. The US does. Trojan horse for future buys of unfinished F-35s.

2 - Germany doesn't have much sea to patrol to begin with. All your waters are bordered by NATO countries. You are a natural land power act like it.

3 - Outdated 1970s trash. Disco wants its missile back.

4 - See 1 and 3.

1:
The F35 will replace a part of the aging Tornado fleet, they won't be used solely for nuclear deterrence.
With the new aircraft Luftwaffe would field 50 F35.
Luftwaffe however wants to purchase 400 fighter-bomber drones for attack missions.

2:
Germany will station a number of P8A in Iceland and start patrolling between Greenland and Norway

3:
Tomahawk is available. That's why they are being ordered. Germany and UK however develop a new missile system with at least 2000km range to become more independent.

Even worse. The F-35 infiltration rot continues.

Norway has oil. Let them buy their own Poseidons.

Tomahawk is trash. Even South Korea has better long range missiles than that.
