    So this is the only one that isn't mass media, which, remember when you used to discredit mass media before you discovered you could cherry pick articles that seem to support your narrative?

    And here's Cancian's conclusion:

The United States might also acquire some stocks from third countries. The reliance on alternatives does not indicate a lack of commitment or a reduction in military capability. These systems can still be effective on the battlefield. However, they are an acknowledgment that the U.S. military was not structured to fight or support an extended conflict. That should, of itself, spark some debate in the national security establishment about budget priorities. In the meantime, the flow of weapons and munitions will continue, as will the war.
    So while the Ukrainians have to contend with "limited" (thousands or tens of thousands left) stocks of some munition types the Russians don't even have,

    1. There are alternatives
    2. Production of the good stuff is mostly ongoing and can will be ramped up if the war drags on THAT long
    3. Russia is already dipping into North Korean supplies of dumb (unguided) arty shells and buying drones from technical military giants Iran


    And as usual, you've addressed not a single thing in my reply. I'm sorry, you just wont be able to spread your delusions of Russian victory here. Russia is toast, buddy.
