Step One in “kicking ass” should be making artillery shells, especially 3 years after the war started.

Instead, all we get is fiascos.

Yup, because if there is a conventional war, it will be a WW1 style artillery battle. Okay

Is that what you think America NATO would bring to the war, more mud caked grunts and artillerymen to sit in trenches and trade artillery shells and rifle fire?

Artillery shells are something we send to the Ukrainians, they are not what we and the other NATO nations would be bringing to the war.

Besides, we and our allies are producing millions now to keep Ukraine supplied, also, if NATO joined Ukraine, artillery’s role would greatly decrease.
