800 soldiers from an Italy-based infantry battalion task force to the Baltic states
(The Herd)
Up to eight Air Force F-35 strike fighters from Germany to the Baltics, as well as an unspecified location on NATO’s southeastern flank

An attack aviation battalion with 20 AH-64 Apache helicopters, from Germany to the Baltics

An attack aviation task force with 12 Apaches from Greece to Poland

32 Apaches is an awesome amount of fire power

The gulf war proved how lethal Apaches were, Russian Armor impinge
in mud may be no different than fortified sand pits that the Iraq Armor employed.

Who's the huckleberry in this one?

Edit to add: Why would Putin have waited, when the outcome of his delay to attack, allow the repositioning of these forces? Which arguably, are extreme offense weapon platforms. What does Russia have to counter Apaches and their standoff capabilities?
