I don’t know what you mean about what ammunition we can’t give Ukraine or other countries.

I had heard that the only configuration of cluster bomb s we possessed were air dropped, not artillery fired.
I was since told that we have nearly a billion items of these in various configurations for delivery. I don’t know that the Ukes have the airplane capability to use airplane dropped bombs. I then also read (here) that we may only give the very small subset of bombs that meet narrow criteria for dud rate etc to any other country. I don’t know that those small subset are what the Ukes could use. If we have effectively no number of these munitions to actually give, why are we not mass manufacturing more of what we CAN give them and the artillery to fire them? If indeed we are, as Biden says, doing everything we can to help them win?
Thanks.
