Troops that cannot make up for a lack of artillery shells.

Ukraine needs a supply of 8,000 155mm artillery shells per week.

The “typical” average weight of a 155mm artillery shell, is 100 lbs.

Tell me why again, that the entire Western world cannot outproduce and supply artillery shells and field pieces in EXCESS of the Russians? Assuming we really want to and aren’t just blathering.

Or supply enough drones that Russian artillery is decimated, or supply enough longer range munitions to wreck Russian logistics.

Why fight on Russia’s terms?
