In 1999, the Luftwaffe's Tornado ECRs acquitted themselves in the SEAD role over Kosovo, flying 2108 hours and 446 sorties. 236 HARM missiles were fired on enemy targets. All the Tornados returned safely to Germany when the conflict ended.

Germany's Armed Forces are also involved in the Afghanistani theatre of operations.

Just because a nation has leaders with more respect for national policies than the sycophantic Bush bottom-licking poodle Bliar, it doesn't mean that their Armed Forces are incapable of giving a good account of themselves.
