An essential data dump of information on nearly all aspects of international aid to Ukraine. This is a summary of the current state of play, plus a rundown of what's gone down in this area recently.

One cannot speak with credibility on this subject without having closely followed "open source" over the past year - but this video is IMHO an essential catch-up on the entire subject. It is long but necessary. It answers a host of questions and shuts down another mass of uninformed commentary.

Perun is a British/Australian military procurement financial analyst apparently currently based in Taiwan - or so goes the current Youtube wisdom. He has gotten a degree of Youtube fame for his staff-officer type Powerpoint briefings on Ukraine War, based on following "open source", such as military and trade publications.

The deep-state will be unable to start any new “forever wars” in the mid-east or elsewhere.

China, Russia and the BRICS will now have no qualms against feeding weapons to our opponents in such a case.

Go watch the video.
The biggest and most annoying problem with you guys is that you are simply LAZY. In my long, long experience, LAZY = worthless.

We nor NATO have the ability to come close to resupply Ukraine with even 1/10th the firepower the Russians have. We don't have the manufacturing capability and Russia does.

We're wasting billions and depleting our own stockpiles and that is endangering our national security in the event we need to fight a war that does involve our national security.

Watch the video.

The capacity, and stockpiles, are there, way beyond the likely needs of a hypothetical continental land war - because this IS that continental land war.

That is also why countries in Eastern Europe have risked large drawdowns of their own stocks - because this IS the main event.

Those stockpiles btw are wasting assets. They need to be replaced with new tech and new materiel.

Lucky for the US then that it has the stocks to replace its current Army three times over.
