Defensenews: US plans to increase the production of 155mm artillery shells six fold. What caught my eye in the article is bolded underneath. This time the lend/lease goes against the Russkies... (but against the fascists, again. Take that, Putler).
“We are in a position to support Ukraine, but it’s more the mid and long term,” Bush said. “By creating this capacity ... if this war goes three or four years,
we’ll be in a position to just vastly outproduce the Russians all by ourselves ― and if you combine that with our allies, then we’re just dwarfing their capability. They won’t be able to keep up.”
"Beyond artillery shells, Bush said he is pushing to double production for the the most in-demand precision munitions for Ukraine: rounds for the Lockheed Martin-made High Mobility Artillery Rocket System and Guided Multiple Launch Rocket System, as well as Javelins, the portable anti-tank weapon jointly made by Lockheed and Raytheon Technologies."
