Let’s just remember that Naalsio’s datas include losses in the Marinka and Novomykhailivka sectors (anyway the losses there are just a small fraction of the total). In any case, they are jaw-opening losses both in absolute terms and in being, understandably, one-sided.


The ammo you wanted now literally doesn’t exist unless you can find an untapped stockpile willing to give hundreds of thousands or millions of existing rounds to Ukraine ASAP.

During June it had been reported, including by Reuters and the WSJ, that the US was in discussions with Japan for an agreement similar to that with South Korea, regarding 155mm shells. Japan may have the capabilities for something similar, albeit perhaps to a lesser extent compared to South Korea. I wonder what happened to this plan; it would be a blessing for short/medium-term needs.
