“So we don’t have nearly what we had at the heart of the Cold War,” he continued.“Now you add that we’re giving a lot of munitions away to the Ukrainians, which I think is exactly what we need to do, but now we’re getting dangerously low and sometimes, in some cases even too low, that we don’t have enough.“I think it’s very important that we kind of take stock of where we are in our weapons state across the 32 nations of NATO, and we’re getting way down compared to where we were,” Gen. Hecker said on a panel with the air chiefs of the United Kingdom and Sweden at the conference, reported the outlet.“And it’s probably not going to get better—well, it’s not in the short term

The DC Elite provoked a war they thought would destroy Russia in 2-3 months - that was the goal![]()
Another foreign policy debacle created by red meat neocon ideologues who know nothing about Russia.
Now they are fisting each other furiously as DC psychos are known to do.

The weapons stockpile of the United States and its North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) allies are becoming “dangerous low” with no “short term” solutions, according to a top U.S. Air Force commander.Gen. James Hecker, the commander of U.S. Air Forces Europe and Air Forces Africa, made the remarks at the Chief of the Air Staff’s Global Air & Space Chiefs’ Conference in London, reported Breaking Defense.The air force general urged NATO allies to think seriously about their stockpiles.

General Cavoli...""the scope of this war was underestimated by NATO. Most in NATO never conceived of the ability
of Russia to escalate to this amount of firepower"

What dummy. Proves you know nothing about supply. You never put all your eggs in one basket. Always have multiple manufacturers to supply in anything. You Libs are so stupid.Bruce » 17 Jul 2023, 12:33 pm » wrote: ↑ I’ve known since I was a child that America has long sought decentralized weapons production.
We don’t ideally have ONE BIG ARMORY turning out, let’s use 155mm shells.
We used to use private contractors to have a **** of small shops making 155mm shells.
Then the Cold War ended and the little contractors gradually quit making shells.
All the Army’s supply of 155mm shells today comes from one government armory.

Biden passed the largest defense bill in history, and wants more war money next year.
By the time that old man retires in 2029 he’ll have overseen the largest growth in munitions since Franklin D Roosevelt.
The Republicans were against FDR’s arsenal of democracy too, until December 7, 1941.
As I said, ideally we don’t wind up with just one government armory in one place making 90,000 155mm shells a month. That’s what we have now.PhiloBeddo » 17 Jul 2023, 12:37 pm » wrote: ↑ What dummy.

So when we learn that we only have one armory making 90,000 155mm shells, in the public news, in January 2023, shall we just write off America as done and over, too “woke” to build shells?
The industrial capacity of the USA and NATO to build 155mm shells is for all intents and purposes unlimited.Sumela » 17 Jul 2023, 3:09 pm » wrote: ↑ ''''The weapons stockpile of the United States and its North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO)
