Conflict around possible American seizure of Greenland island only intensifies further. However, this doesn’t prevent issuing permits for selling Denmark weaponry, such as AGM-114R Hellfire II missiles and associated equipment for $45 million.
According to a published U.S. State Department permit document, Danes want to purchase up to one hundred missiles, three stationary test missiles, six M299 launchers, two MHU-191/M transport trailers, and three BRU-14 holders. This will also include logistics, support services, spare parts, technical documentation, and software.
The sale is stated to help advance American geopolitical interests and improve NATO security. This is very interesting considering the surrounding political situation around Greenland island, which supposedly needs to be surrendered for White House needs.
Worth noting here: so far most threats sound only verbally, without special practical changes in U.S. policy. Meanwhile, Denmark remains a long-time ally, so there is no need to refuse it weapons sales.
What did Michael Moore say, something like…. “Capitalists will sell you the rope to hang them with.“
Wasn’t that Lenin?
Arming your "enemy’ immediately before attacking them seems like a very stupid idea. So par for the course with this administration.
Denmark shouldn’t trust anything that comes from Trump, I know I don’t
Chinese stuff with hidden off switch 😱
American stuff with hidden off switch 🤑
Open Source WMDs when?
Just get the Demon core off eBay.
DE added a bit towards the end of the article explaining that (in their opinion ofc).

DE is Germany, DK is Denmark
DE is Defense Express, the source of the article.
Y’all are wild if you think each and every one of those can’t just be killswitched whenever the US feels it’s convenient to do so. They don’t like your target? Whoops, that’s a dud.
43m sounds like one missile.
Because money.
There are probably ways to disable them if used against USA intentions.
If not, stupidity is a feature of fascism and the inbreeding inherant in racial superiority ponzi schemes.
More like. It doesn’t matter. A few hell fire missiles are not making any meaningful difference in a fight between the usa and Denmark, so you might as well sell them to hedge your bets if you decide not to invade
The world’s biggest arms dealer is dealing arms?
I’d guess the software has some kind of kill switch, but I’m not a missile engineer
Does no one understand that bullys are cowards?
It’s gunna be funny as fuck when they launch right back at the US because trump tries to invade.
Not so much when they turn around mid-flight and obliterate Denmark.
You are vastly over estimating the destructive power of a hellfire if you think they can obliterate a country.
Well, it really depends on how many Denmark bought, and what the targets are.
Gee, I wonder if we could find this kind of information, maybe by interpreting letters into sounds and ideas…
45 million would probably be 250-300 missiles
Based upon? Curious.
Not the article for sure, because the article mentions “up to a hundred”. But reading articles is for losers, it’s much cooler to make stuff up.
They cost between 130000-160000 each and I’m kinda just rough estimate because I don’t know the exacts of the deal
Denmark right now…
