This is the beginning of changing the world's geopolitical landscape. The German company Rheinmetall has secured a 6.3 billion euro weapons order, and the state of Lower Saxony has launched Europe's largest ammunition production plant.
Moreover, this is just the beginning. In the second half of 2025, Rheinmetall's orders for weapons and ammunition are still experiencing explosive growth. War has brought excessive profits, generous bonuses, and livelihood security to the entire German military industry.
In 2022, Rheinmetall produced 50,000 shells, and the current goal is to produce 1 million per year. The number of Rheinmetall workers has grown to 40,000, and even workers who previously produced civilian car parts have switched to producing military products. It's too profitable, and there are too many orders. After the war in Ukraine has lasted more than three years, Rheinmetall's stock price has risen 18 times.
Germany is also expanding its military preparations, but Germany is not in a hurry. The four regions of Ukraine are still continuing to fight. Even if Kyiv and Lviv are lost, there is Poland, which is also fiercely preparing for war. When the Russian army breaks through Poland and appears at the German border, it will take many years.
As long as the Russian military becomes stronger and stronger, as long as the Russian army can continue to fight, and as long as Europe continues to fear Russia, then the orders for German military companies will keep increasing. In the future, reaching 10 billion dollars per year is also possible.
