Germany spends just over 1% of their GDP on their military. Even if they ramped it up to the 15% that the U.S. has averaged, Germany no longer has the industrial capacity, the skill or the leadership to grow, much less sustain a meaningful military.
There are still some top tier meat eaters in their ranks but overall, the Germans have totally shit their own beds with their socialist policies and unfettered immigration. Like most of the West, they are becoming a victim of themselves.
"Germany no longer has the skill or leadership to grow".
Germany if motivated can develop quickly.
What would be a good motivator?
The West needs to analyze Agenda 2030, amend it and revert to Anti-Immigration policies like Hungary, Northern Ireland, Czechia, Russia, Ukraine, Croatia, Serbia, Bosnia, Montenegro, Romania, Switzerland, Austria, Liechtenstein, Luxembourg, and what 75% of European North Americans truly WANT.
