[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It does not matter who wins thr us election:  Russia loses either way.

Kamala will keep up our funding of Ukraine.  She has authorized long-range weapon use, and that will only increase.[b] Our production of 155mm shells is expanding exponentially[/b].

Trump may threaten to withhold funding, but he cannot unilaterally order Zelinskii to compromise or negotiate.  If trump withholds all funding, South Korea will make up for some of it.  And the EU will chip in the rest.  Plus, the rate of the EU’s 155mm production is expanding even faster than ours.  And one of trumps key issues is demanding NATO members contribute their agreed upon 2% of GDP to defense spending.  All those billions of Euros will continue to fund weapons shipments to Ukraine.

China won’t save Russia.  They want Russia to collapse to they can buy up the leftovers cheap.

Iran’s factories were just decimated and it’s fighting its own war now.

The NORKs are little more than cannon-fodder. Plus they motivate South Korea (and others) to increase aid to Ukraine.

Israel has stayed out of it.  But when a shaky peace is restored, they will remember who Russia sided with, and come to Zelinskii’s aid (quietly).

Russia is finished [/quote]

“expanding exponentially” is easy if you haven’t produced a single shell for over a decade prior.

I’m not sure why you’re so vested in selling this lie so hard, but it’s disturbing.

The truth is, we have almost zero manufacturing capacity for new shells now. ATK has two plants that have a production capacity of about a hundred shells each, per day.  That’s not even enough production to keep up with a typical 4-tube battery’s daily consumption.

The Europeans are even worse - they don’t have the capacity at all in most cases. They bought their stuff from us, except for the Swedes, who along with Rhinemetal in Germany are the sole producers of ordnance.

DP.
Your info may be out of date.  We're currently producing around 80,000 shells a month and that number is increasing.  I can think of at least a half dozen US plants that are producing them - General Dynamics has plants in Arkansas and Illinois, American Ordnance has a plant in Iowa, Scranton Army Ammunition Plant in PA, and so on.[/quote]
