The Europeans haven't had effective militaries since the Evil Empire/Warsaw Pact died in 1989. Even then, the only real muscle NATO had was the Americans. The Russians were rightly afraid of the West Germans though. (It probably had something to do with the Great Patriotic War of 1941 to 1945.)

Once the Cold War ended, the pretense of funding NATO’s militaries was lost and the Euros gutted their militaries to fund their swelling welfare programs. The Euros cannot field any kind of sustainable military force as shown by the Euros campaign against Gadaffi’s Libya. The Americans did the heavy lifting for the Euros who, for a time, had to suspend their air attacks due to lack of ammunition! Some credible fighting force NATO is, eh? The Euros are so broke this is mere posturing on their parts. They don't have the money to buy nearly enough tanker aircraft — if they were REALLY serious.
