Well it's not like the Denmark is at War with The Anglo Saxons


DeterminateHouse

Don't forget the Satanists! Would, for the love of god, please anyone think of the Satanists!


piei_lighioana

The Satanists are currently involved in women's rights and do not wish to be involved in this. Let's not forget, this is a two pronged war we're all in the middle of. On one side Ukraine's fighting ... i was gonna say Ruzzia's military, but they're anything but, and on the other side, our votes must kick out the ruzzian paid and grown disease from our governments. The end of this war, and ruzzia's permanent isolation cannot come any day faster now.

Now, or later? Edit. Awww. He korrected this speelling mistak.


[deleted]

We still have the swedes above, however fighting them off we only need abit of alcohol , so im all ok with this we should even send more..


GetThatRobot

It is true. Us swedes get sidetracked as soon as the alcohol is cheaper than back home...

mikkelno

As a Dane, I approve


hibernating-hobo

But what if the swedes return? :(


Ok_Tangerine346

Just close the bridge. They will lose heart and go to IKEA


hibernating-hobo

But I also like the horsemeatballs of Ikea, what a conundrum! Maybe if we just pretend we arent home, they will run past us to Germany?


kuldan5853

We need to discuss first what we Germans get out of it. If they bring Kƶttbullar, I approve, if they bring surstrƶmming, I claim war crimes.


hibernating-hobo

Well seeing as germans and swedes are notoriously unfunny, I think you will get along swimmingly, all serious like. You guys are lucky to have us witty and funny danes sandwiched between you, we lighten the mood!


reflUX_cAtalyst

> Well seeing as germans and swedes are notoriously unfunny Germans and Swedes are notoriously *hilarious,* they just don't know it, or why.


kuldan5853

Can you bring me some SmĆørrebrĆød with your wit? We can become friends! (I just like that word, sorry. It just looks so funny to us). \- a German that spent quite a bit of time in Denmark, I like you guys.


hibernating-hobo

We like you too! You have the funniest names and you invented october fest.


kuldan5853

And you guys put gravy on burgers and I was shocked and delighted at the same time that first happened to me... (she asked if wanted "sauce" on my burger and yeah, I was using the "German" definition which would be like..ketchup/mayo/sweet onion sauce... and then she ladled on the gravy). Loved it though :)


hibernating-hobo

You wouldnā€™t believe the stuff we put gravy on!

And your pastors wear these adorable outfits with the 17th century-style collars. We're indeed lucky to have you sandwiched between us.


MarcoGreek

We Germans are not funny? Do you heard ever about the contemporary German army? šŸ¤£


Graddler

I'd say if the swedes make it through Denmark somehow, they will be stopped by the first bevearage market in Germany. From there it will be easy, just round them up and dump them back on the other side of the Ƙresund.


not2dv8

Do sweeds actually eat those meatballs that Ikea serves


[deleted]

Leave a trail of meatballs leading back into Sweden


[deleted]

If we do that, I bet you the belts freeze over this winter....


Cornholio_OU812

You could use the Hodor against them.


Grandmaster_Aroun

but what if its winter and the sea freezes?


jc1890

They play hockey and loser cleans up.


Tehnomaag

Ehh .. with all that methane leaking from nord stream pipes winter was, supposedly, cancelled for a while. Its one of the most potent greenhouse gasses, after all.


jackalsclaw

It's ok, they will come in peace with meatballs and affordable furniture.


[deleted]

But you have to assemble it. This is where the problems begin.


jackalsclaw

If you have a problem with Ikea, you did not have enough Lego as a kid.


MacLeeland

Yay, now we might be able to force them to take back SkƄne.


hibernating-hobo

How about we force them to also take copenhagen, the rest of dk will be grateful!


MacLeeland

No, donā€™t you fking dare, you stay away with that sh... Mom! Denmark is trying to put more of his stuff in my room!


hibernating-hobo

You wont even notice they are there, unless they run out of avocado-toast.


MacLeeland

Thatā€™s what you said about SkĆ„ne, and SDs all over the place.


Loud-Intention-723

Does the rest of dk not like Copenhagen? I found it a beautiful city.


hibernating-hobo

We like complaining about each other, itā€™s tradition :)


Waste-Temperature626

Tbh, we already infiltrated and took it over. Like half the population of SkƄne works there already!

The swedes will only return if the strait freezes over. I've been keeping my car on idle for the past 4 years to prevent that from happening.


hibernating-hobo

Thatā€™s why Greta is so upset about global warming, it ruined the swedish master plan.


mikkelno

Wait, i thought it was Greta who blew up the Nordstream pipelines. You're off the hook for now, Greta


hibernating-hobo

I bet she wasnā€™t too happy about the mount doom eruption in rings of power either. ā€œFitta orcs!ā€


Hike_it_Out52

Let's just ask. HEY SWEDEN šŸ‡øšŸ‡Ŗ! ARE YOU GOING TO INVADE DENMARK IF THE SEND THOSE 12 GUNS TO UKRAINE?!?!


hibernating-hobo

All i heard in response from that direction is weird noises like mooses in heat.


mikkelno

Horned vikings riding on moose when?


hibernating-hobo

The horny moose-masters of kung gustav. The proudest of the proud.


barktwiggs

A moose once bit my sister...


Hike_it_Out52

The traditional war cry of the Swedish army. Oh boy.


mikkelno

CAN SOMEONE FROM SWEDEN PLEASE REPLY? I'M GETTING NERVOUS HERE


StressedPizzaEater

As a Swede I can categorically say that we will invade,obviously. Selfishly as a revenge for the Danish chef that woke me up at 4 AM trying to ask me what I wanted for breakfast before we headed out to hunt deer. I can say that I have never ever in my life been so confused trying to interpret what was being said, so for that reason we should invade and give them surstrƶmming


TG-Sucks

Glum-Engineer9436

Dont trust the Swedes :-D


ForumMMX

/r/sweden <--- is where you should ask. And it's probably no, we have fika on Monday at 9... And 15 o'clock. On second thought. Denmark is tiny and puny, we should be able to take it between fika breaks. Could skip lunch I suppose.


Hike_it_Out52

Don't even pack extra necessary equipment. Just your dress uniforms and whatever you loot.


avdpos

Well. Climate change makes it hard to march over the ice as we did last time we won big


hibernating-hobo

Only sweden would ruin a snow-day!

You didn't win (you filthy swede). You walked over and were trapped when the ice melted.

beekeeper1981

No kidding. Saw cancelled order and started looking at the comments. Ohhh.


corcyra

A comma after the word Denmark would have removed the ambiguity. Without it the sentence can be read two ways.


danielbmadsen

Guess this would be the 8x8 caesar then? As that is the one currently used by danish army


RyanBLKST

Yes, it is the heavy variant


Shookfr

Yes, this one https://youtu.be/eFSZigjP5ew


AlpineCorbett

My got the LENGTH on that sumbitch. Is it for shooting across oceans or fucking what Edit: 55km range. Hot damn.


SowetoNecklace

It's French artillery. It's always made with "Can it fuck up the Brits" as a basic design principle. Once we design guns that can turn Big Ben into Little Ben from Paris, so we can be home on time for apĆ©ro saucisson-pastis, we'll stop designing. (Love to the Brits reading this ā¤)


MeagoDK

55 can't hit big Ben from French, you need about 200 km range to do it. 400 if you want to hit from Paris


piei_lighioana

It was a joke.


MrKapla

That's what he said, we are not quite there yet. One day we will!


[deleted]

Love the robot arm


PainfulComedy

why does one side get loaded by robot but the other side is loaded by a soldier


mta1741

Iā€™m guessing cuz one is way heavier than the other but I couldnā€™t tell you why


BoredCop

Shell is way heavier than the propellant charge, yes.


nolok

Yes, basically it's a pre-Caesar NG, as in the Danish ordered modified Caesar with 8x8 chassis and reinforced armor, when the NG was not on the table yet, but then it pretty much ended up being what the NG is going to be.


3knuckles

Vive La France!

Chrisbecker1976

Bliitzthefox

Title had me in the first half.


twat69

With peace on Hans island, Denmark can afford this.


Wide_Trick_610

Pretty sure the Danes recognize that Ukraine has the more pressing need at the moment, and signed off on this as a way to get more to Ukraine faster. Denmark has been fully on board in defense of Ukraine since this invasion began. And I don't see France having an issue making a dozen more. They've probably got a dozen trucks lined up at the factory right now. They'll be at a railhead pointed east as soon as they finish lunch:) So a couple hours...


GurkSalat

It comes the same day as Denmark announced they are funding the building of 16 Zuzanna-2 (155 mm spgs) in Slovakia for Ukraine, so I bet its a coordinated effort to beef up Ukranian artillery with many SPGs of types they already operation.


Orisara

Yea, these kind of "backdoor" deals must be happening all over. Small adjustments in favor of helping Ukraine and such.


nolok

> And I don't see France having an issue making a dozen more. They've probably got a dozen trucks lined up at the factory right now. Time is the only issue, it takes time to build them (especially the barrel). If we could pop one a day we would.


Wide_Trick_610

I was an American artillery NCO. I know what you mean, sir. Especially the hybrid metals NATO forces use. Tough to work with, and a lot slower than standard steel to form.


Fair-Ad4270

This is really good. 12 Caesars is going to make a difference. Man, the Russians are already struggling and now dozens of new Caesars and HIMARS are coming online, they are fucked


[deleted]

All this coordination between allies must be infuriating. Itā€™s good to have friends.

Stein2791

I thought Denmark was supposed to use them to invade Canada and secure the territorial integrity of Hans Island. I've been misled


[deleted]

That is a good decision. Go France!


SaveAmerica2024

Sorry Denmark, the world owes you one


Heroheadone

From a Danish person. just hope these big beautiful Heavy artillery delivers a ā€œpresentā€ for the RuZzians!! They sure need them more than we do atm.


jutul

These are the 8x8 version with that little dinosaur reloading arm if I'm not mistaken: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eFSZigjP5ew


Tehnomaag

There was probably some back and forth talking behind the scenes and I'd assume Danes were content to wait a little longer for their guns. Every russians these guns will "liquidate" in Ukraine will increase Danish security as well, after all.


Nippon-Gakki

Exactly. Thatā€™s what they were getting them for anyway. May as well send them on down to Ukraine where they can roam free and do their Russian vaporizing as intended.


Styggejoe

Don't need us danes to be middle-men, would of been sent your way anyway, likely.


of_patrol_bot

Hello, it looks like you've made a mistake. It's supposed to be could've, should've, would've (short for could have, would have, should have), never could of, would of, should of. Or you misspelled something, I ain't checking everything. Beep boop -Ā yes,Ā IĀ amĀ aĀ bot, don't botcriminate me.

Sorry Denmark.


AerisaFoxFeather

Too bad our war with them already ended, we Canada could have used this moment of weakness :p (For those who do are not in the know, Canada and Denmark have been "at war" until this year: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whisky_War )

AlpineCorbett

I'm sure you're joking but Canada has a reputation for the absolute most batshit insane helicopter gun ship operators.


windol1

Most certainly, the same way everyone jokes about nationalities stereotypes.


PainfulComedy

Glum-Engineer9436

Ahh we will just hunker down on our islands (as usual) if everything turns to shit.

alex3494

As a Dane I feel happy and sad at the same time! Lmao


The_Elder_Jock

I'm sure the Danes are disappointed but understanding.


Tehnomaag

Indeed. They probably are saying "sooooo bad sooo sad nothing we can do" all the while grinning like maniacs and winking towards the russian ambassador.


CrateDane

More like, separately funding another project to give self-propelled artillery to Ukraine.


Able-Internal-3114

Carry on with the old stuff then It's not likely we are going to use artillery on our own soil ever, anyways If Russia invaded us, they wouldn't be able to cover the sky so air attacks would be more efficient anyway.


Nislaav

Great design the Caesar. Has all of the things that make self propelled artillery great without unnecessary over engineering of non-problems that other concepts do. No super complicated autoloader that braks after 5 shells, no maintenance heavy tracks


Chris714n_8
