A farewell to #arms. By year end #Russia will be left almost without shells, artillery and armored vehicles
For Russia, six months of war have led not only to colossal irreplaceable losses in manpower, but also to a huge waste of #weapons and military equipment: guided missiles are already very scarce, shells for artillery and armored vehicles will be exhausted by the end of the year, and the state of military aviation precludes a full-scale air campaign. Because of the #sanctions, Russia cannot continue full industrial production of weapons and replenish its arms stockpiles, which are rapidly running out.
