Thank you for your comment. I read the other day that in our latest tranche of among other things, 155 mm howitzer rounds something like 150,000... that seems like a giant number, unless they’re just firing them off into the ocean.

We will see what the winter brings, but I have no expectation of this war being brief.

Take 15K and divide by ~3000 which gives you the number of days those rounds will last the UA at current rate. Triple that rate for the Russians

To answer your question about how many shells has the Pentagon given Ukraine:

“As of Aug. 24, the U.S. military said it had provided Ukraine with up to 806,000 rounds of 155mm ammunition.”<-Ukraine War Is Depleting U.S. Ammunition Stockpiles, Sparking Pentagon Concern

I don’t have the link so you’ll have to search for it.
