Months before Russia launched its counteroffensive against NATO’s crawling encroachment on its western borders, the political West started sending massive amounts of weapons and munitions to the Kiev regime. Now . . . they're running out!
Initially, the deliveries primarily included tens of thousands of man-portable missiles for various purposes, including ATGM (anti-tank guided missiles) and MANPADS (man-portable air defense systems) weapons. Even then, it already became clear that NATO’s stocks couldn’t provide enough weapons for a long-term conflict, while it would take years to ramp up deliveries by expanding production lines. This was further exacerbated when the Kiev regime started asking for more advanced weapons and systems amid mounting battlefield losses.
Many NATO member states were (and still are) forced to send weapons and munitions which were already in short supply for their own militaries. This is particularly true when it comes to former Warsaw Pact member states of the belligerent alliance, many of whom were forced to give up their Soviet-era weapons. Old NATO powers promised to send their weapons to replace these older arsenals of the alliance’s Eastern European members, although this process proved to be quite slow. On the other hand, the Kiev regime’s ever-growing demands are putting additional pressure. As NATO’s current production capacity simply cannot meet these requests, the Neo-Nazi junta’s battlefield prospects look grimmer by the day. “If this does not happen, we won’t be able to win — as simple as that,” Dmytro Kuleba, the Kiev regime chief diplomat warned during a recent meeting.
On November 26, the New York Times reported that approximately two-thirds of NATO members have effectively run out of weapons by sending them to the Kiev regime. Even the more prominent alliance members with big MICs (Military Industrial Complexes) are having major issues keeping up with the Kiev regime’s demands.
According to an unnamed NATO official, 20 out of 30 member states are “pretty tapped out” in terms of additional weapon and munition supplies to the Neo-Nazi junta. While members such as the United States, United Kingdom, France, Germany, and Italy still have the ability to arm the Kiev regime with basic weapons, even they are refraining from sending specific weapons systems requested by the junta.
The demands include various types of strategically impactful weapons, including surface-to-surface guided missiles such as ATACMS, a weapon with a 300 km engagement range. The US officially rejected such demands, supposedly “out of concern” the missiles could be used to attack targets deep within Russia. However, the more likely reason is that the Pentagon is fully aware of the fact that it would take years to replace its current stocks of such missiles and it’s not very keen on expending them all without certain replacement. The same is true for many other types of weapons and systems which are equally needed to maintain optimal military power.
Artillery is especially important in this regard. As soon as the Kiev regime started burning through its Soviet-made stocks, many of which were also destroyed in Russia’s long-range strikes, NATO was forced to provide both artillery pieces and shells. As the alliance’s post-(First) Cold War doctrine shifted toward a more interventionist style of warfare, artillery became less important, resulting in ever-shrinking stocks.
According to various reports, the enormous demand for artillery munitions is putting tremendous pressure on NATO members trying to meet the Kiev regime’s requests. At present, the Neo-Nazi junta forces are firing at least five thousand shells per day, but the US, by far the most heavily armed NATO member state, can only produce 15,000 shells per month. Camille Grand, a defense expert at the European Council on Foreign Relations, told the New York Times that “[a] day in Ukraine is a month or more in Afghanistan.”
On the other hand, the soaring demand is extremely profitable for the Military Industrial Complexes (MIC) of the political West.
“Taking into account the realities of the ongoing war in Ukraine and the visible attitude of many countries aimed at increased spending in the field of defense budgets, there is a real chance to enter new markets and increase export revenues in the coming years,” according to Sebastian Chwalek, CEO of Poland’s PGZ, a corporation that owns a number of weapons manufacturers.
However, the US MIC has been experiencing by far the largest windfall in this regard. Arms industry giants such as Lockheed Martin and Raytheon already made billions in the opening months of the Ukrainian crisis.
Back in May, during a visit to a Lockheed Martin plant, US President Joe Biden stated that the US would ramp up weapons production, but that “this would not come cheap.” However, most US officials and experts agree that this is not only a question of funding, as it will take years to increase production in order to meet the current demand, which is expected to grow exponentially in the foreseeable future.
“If you want to increase the production capability of 155 mm shells. It’s going to be probably four to five years before you start seeing them come out the other end,” according to Mark F. Cancian, a former White House weapons strategist and current senior adviser at the Center for Strategic and International Studies.
The US and NATO have already stated that they’re committed to fighting a long proxy war against Russia in Ukraine. In October, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin openly admitted this is the plan that Washington DC and its satellites have. He said that the US and NATO would “boost Ukraine’s defensive capabilities for pressing urgent needs and for the long term.” However, as the US is profiteering from the crisis, especially at the EU’s expense, the bloc is becoming increasingly frustrated, a feeling even the most senior officials in Brussels are now ready to express more freely than ever before.

He HAS a ‘job’ in this administration…Selling American-supplied arms for dim bank accounts
NATO and USA have Moron leadership with no commonsense.
Or this is planed and everything is going by their book. We as Americans will lose this one and lose bad.

“What’re we supposed to use, man? Harsh language?”
This article just cracks me up.
It seems to me Russia has exceeded it's goal: it has not only De militarized Ukraine, I has De militarized NATO!
Let us hope it has also De Nazified both, or will do.
The West judges by it's own parameters: War is about gaining control over territory and resources, but Russia has more than enough land and resources (which is what the West wants to take).
In my book disarming your opponent is a WIN!
Would that be the same Western sources that told us the so-called vaccine death jab was safe and effective?
What, you want a few exclamation points.
So ........they move most weapons in for destruction .... NEXT the Bastards of Hell send in our young men and women to be killed off ??????????
Captain! We're running low on ammo!
We'll, what do we have left?
We'll... We have those nukes in the other room...
Screw it, use 'em.
.
Nut up, shut up, pick it up, it's is time to "move out".
"Rectum hell", we damn near "killed them".
"Better luck next time".
Everting else was "tactics, timing and terrain".
Never forget. "FATHER" is in "control".
What could be better for the MIC than an endless market in a captive audience??
.
Along with Fouci, Hillary, Pelosi and many others.
It's not likely, but I can dream can't I ?
I think living under Russian rule would be bad, but it would be a never ending bloodbath if China were in control.
You see how they treat their own citizens. What would they do to us?
"We've got them right where they want us."
Never heard a truer statement.
Slaves of Nebuchadnezzar
Jeremiah 27 (Contemporary English Version (CEV)
1-2 Not long after Zedekiah became king of Judah, the Lord told me:
Jeremiah, make a wooden yoke with leather straps, and place it on your neck. 3 Then send a message to the kings of Edom, Moab, Ammon, Tyre, and Sidon. Some officials from these countries are in Jerusalem, meeting with Zedekiah. 4 So have them tell their kings that I have said:
I am the All-Powerful Lord God of Israel, 5 and with my power I created the earth, its people, and all animals. I decide who will rule the earth, 6-7 and I have chosen my servant King Nebuchadnezzar of Babylonia to rule all nations, including yours. I will even let him rule the wild animals. All nations will be slaves of Nebuchadnezzar, his son, and his grandson. Then many nations will join together, and their kings will make slaves of the Babylonians.
8 This yoke stands for the power of King Nebuchadnezzar, and I will destroy any nation that refuses to obey him. Nebuchadnezzar will attack, and many will die in battle or from hunger and disease. 9 You might have people in your kingdom who claim they can tell the future by magic or by talking with the dead or by dreams or messages from a god. But don't pay attention if any of them tell you not to obey Nebuchadnezzar. 10 If you listen to such lies, I will have you dragged far from your country and killed. 11 But if you and your nation are willing to obey Nebuchadnezzar, I will let you stay in your country, and your people will continue to live and work on their farms.
12 After I had spoken to the officials from the nearby kingdoms, I went to King Zedekiah and told him the same thing. Then I said:
Zedekiah, if you and the people of Judah want to stay alive, you must obey Nebuchadnezzar and the Babylonians. 13 But if you refuse, then you and your people will die from war, hunger, and disease, just as the Lord has warned. 14 Your prophets have told you that you don't need to obey Nebuchadnezzar, but don't listen to their lies. 15 Those prophets claim to be speaking for the Lord, but he didn't send them. They are lying! If you do what they say, he will have both you and them dragged off to another country and killed. The Lord has spoken.
16 When I finished talking to the king, I told the priests and everyone else that the Lord had said:
Don't listen to the prophets when they say that very soon the Babylonians will return the things they took from my temple. Those prophets are lying! 17 If you choose to obey the king of Babylonia, you will live. But if you listen to those prophets, this whole city will be nothing but a pile of rubble.
18 If I really had spoken to those prophets, they would know what I am going to do. Then they would be begging me not to let everything else be taken from the temple and the king's palace and the rest of Jerusalem. 19-21 After all, when Nebuchadnezzar took King Jehoiachin to Babylonia as a prisoner, he didn't take everything of value from Jerusalem. He left the bronze pillars, the huge bronze bowl called the Sea, and the movable bronze stands in the temple, and he left a lot of other valuable things in the palace and in the rest of Jerusalem.
But now I, the Lord All-Powerful, the God of Israel, say that all these things 22 will be taken to Babylonia, where they will remain until I decide to bring them back to Jerusalem. I, the Lord, have spoken.

So if I understand this correctly.
Russia should be shaking in their boots, because of the overwhelming power of NATO
Who is almost out of ammunition and supplies that will take years to replace.
So an almost depleted NATO, can one defeat a super power?
Sounds like the fog is thick
NATO IS one super-power .... America.
NATO/America HAVE found a willing partner (in Ukraine) who will kill as many Russians as they can with a happy heart! as long NATO/America maintain material supply.
Most NATO members are irrelevant to this conflict. They cannot defend themselves....much less Ukraine.
ALL that maters for Ukraine is American resupply.
As long as Ukraine receives material resupply, the material attrition curve WILL continue to favor Ukraine, and Ukraine WILL continue to roll-up Russian forces in Ukraine.
Without American material resupply......Ukraine will cease to exist as a nation.
America has, is, and will continue to drive Russia into the dirt in war material production.
Russia is being systematically de-militarized by this war.
They lose on this current path......
The US cannot maintain a constant supply of weapons to Ukraine, this is not the industrial powerhouse of WWII. The MIC is now set up for a different kind of war, a war against insurgents and low intensity fighting, with little expenditure of high-tech weaponry and zero competition for control of the air.
The US lost when it decided to play.
And yet America retains the largest arms production industrial base...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_military_expenditures
And remains the world's largest arms exporter.....
https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/world-s-largest-exporters-of-arms.html
While Russian production has collapsed due to sanctions...
Russia cannot continue their previous weapons productions, due to sanctions.
Who's running out of inventory, again?....
https://news.yahoo.com/russia-run-arms-ukraine-does-133207405.html
"he UK's defense minister said that Russia will run out of weapons before Ukraine does, because Russia is isolated and cut off from the global supply chain."
https://news.sky.com/story/russia-running-out-of-weapons-as-it-faces-staggering-numbers-of-casualties-spy-chief-says-12717702
" Russia is running out of weapons for its war in Ukraine and the costs to the Kremlin are "staggering" in terms of soldiers killed and equipment lost, a UK spy chief will say."
https://www.newsweek.com/russia-might-run-out-weapons-ammunition-end-year-report-1738702
"Russia Might Run Out of Weapons, Ammunition By End of Year: Report"
Which way are the lines moving again?
Who's been advancing (cough....Ukraine) for the last 4 MOUNTHS!
Who's launching dozens of Kh-55s ....with nuclear warheads removed.....as 'kinetic energy' (IMPACT) bomber drones......because they're OUT of Kh-101s with live warheads?
Stick to that story.
Russia is being GUTTED.
They cannot ADMIT it!.....much less fix it.
So watch what happens next when their desperation sets in over THEIR LOSSES.......
Infiltrate, assimilate....
They never hear me coming....
Твой друг, you needed my help...
