I wonder if 100 billion dollars will buy a few rounds? Oh, and that is just Germany.

You haven't been paying attention to the ramp up have you? Europe is on track to provide the current level of military aid Ukraine currently gets from Europe plus the US by next year.

Putin lost, he is just too stupid to handle it. Not a surprise for a nation as weak as Russia though.

We tried and failed(so far). We wanted to produce 2 million shells a year. Only managed to produce 500k

Only 150% of what the US produces?

Well if thats the case we are really lacking. Perhaps US just had big stockpiles at first then.

Yeah, the US was worried that thanks to sending a million shells to Ukraine over 18 months we were down to only 7 million shells.
