How Western heavy weaponry can make a difference in the war in Ukraine
“Artillery sweat saves infantry blood.” The Ukrainian military has this saying for a reason. It has been weeks since Ukraine began to ask desperately for heavy western weaponry, particularly advanced tubed and rocket artillery, as part of an effort to turn the tide of Russia’s invasion, which...kyivindependent.com
I imagine a lot of the ex-Soviet artillery will need to be abandoned and spiked once ammunition runs out. Hopefully before then the Ukrainians have replacement guns and ammunition from the West. There's likely many an ex-Warsaw Pact quartermaster digging through their stores for whatever ammunition can be found.Now that Russia's all-out war has entered its fourth month, Ukraine is struggling with munitions shortage. Especially when it comes to Soviet-made multiple launch rocket systems like 220-millimeter BM-27 Uragan and 300-millimeter BM-30 Smerch.
non profit supporters are trucking food from Poland to Kharkov two days both ways, ambulances transporting wounded soldiers from Lvov hospitals to Warszawa during one day - it means it is not so bad....I imagine a lot of the ex-Soviet artillery will need to be abandoned and spiked once ammunition runs out.
