There is a huge issue with the numbers - you seem to mostly only count what countries send from the stockpiles of their armies, but that's nowhere near the full picture. For example, my country (Czechia) sent around a dozen tanks from army stockpiles, while our military industry is selling them NINETY tanks, to be modernized and delivered within a few months. That's eight times what our army sent. An even more lopsided example is Bulgaria. It has big defense industry, mostly still making Soviet-style weapons and ammo. And while the country itself didn't officially send anything up until a few weeks ago, artillery shells and other supplies of its make have been found in Ukraine plenty of times. The official figures are thus likely extremely understated, especially in Europe.

[@andrasbeke3012]

That’s 6 rockets per case. And now that they have shifted to the A2 version which has a airburst warhead that covers up to a half a KM with 182000 tungsten pellets that can penetrate light armor, but just eradicates the orc infantry.

How long have we been saying that? For like 4 months now? Russia just launched 70 more missiles on Ukraine today and knocked out another major sector of their energy grid today despite the fact they were supposed to run out of those months ago, also according to Ukraine's own data Russia has fired 3,500 missiles and drones on Ukraine, and believe me Russia has thousands more they can send, and to think otherwise is naive to say the least, and Russia isn't going to run out of drones either, infact they bought the Iranian drones to test their combat effectiveness and have deemed them quite effective so now they are producing their own version called the Lancet and it is decimating Ukrainian equipment and Russia just started producing it, and trust me, these drones are extremely cheap compared to other military equipment, they cost only about 20k dollars to produce and can effectively take out equipment that costs hundreds of thousands to produce, not to mention these things are insanely easy to make so the potential for mass production is quite big, and believe me Russia will mass produce these drones because of how effective they are, how cheap they are, and how easy they are to make, because as of right now Ukraine and Nato don't have a solution to deal with these drones, like honestly why waste manpower when you could just send in waves of drones to destroy equipment and defensive positions? Which is what the Russians are doing right now, the only reason these drones aren't making as big of an impact as they have the potential for is because as I already stated Russia is just now producing them and when they begin to ramp up production massively (which they will) the true combat effectiveness of these drones will begin to shine, because sending in waves of these consisting of hundreds at a time will completely overwhelm Ukrainian air defenses and can wreck havoc on Ukraine, as we are already seeing, trust me in the next coming months Ukraine will suffer massively because how can Ukraine survive the brutal winter with no energy infastructure? Not even taking into consideration that Russia has already destroyed a massive portion of Ukraines fuel depots, so how effective will their troops be without heating, fuel, and how will you transport food to the troops without fuel?

This analysis is based on a fundamental assumption: only ammo that Ukraine gets is that is donated by the allies and the only production capacity that is involved is the US one. These assumptions are not true: there might easilly be very extensive agreements between UA and several European producers (such as those in Slovakia) and in countries like Pakistan that are happy to sell their stuff to UA. I have reasons to believe that this is very likely. Thus the ammo supplies to UA might be far larger than the numbers presented in the video.

To make it clear: Europe + the US + other allies are absolutely able to produce the supply needed for such a comparably small scale war.

In the end, it mainly comes down to having factories big enough that you can quickly ramp up production 10 fold from peace time numbers. The other thing too is that Ukraine is using artillery for missions that NATO would often employ aircraft for. A few 500 lb bombs pack a bigger punch than an entire barrage of 155mm. And a couple 2000 pounders will destroy just about anything you want.

Firstly are the number of artillery rounds from other countries than the US totally wrong. Non US countries have donated many more artillery rounds than you say in your video. And they have not only donated NATO artillery rounds. They have also donated many artillery rounds for the Soviet era artillery still in use by the Ukrainian forces. You are also clearly underestimating the production capacity of artillery rounds that all the NATO countries and their partners already have. And you are clearly underestimating how much all these countries can ramp up their production of these artillery rounds if needed. There is a huge difference between what is a convenient ramp up and what is a possible ramp up. The WWII war showed how much and how fast it is possible to scale up a production when needed and you have the economy to do it, and it is even easier to do so these days than then. NATO and their partners can produce artillery rounds, other ammo and weapons extremely much faster than Russia and it's partners can.
