Technically it’s not the worst thing in the world, as long as russia is engaged in a war. The offensive side historically takes 3x casualties than the defending side, that includes use of ammunition.

Ie so if ukraine produces 1M shells and russia 2M, ukraine is still better off.

Not that i dont support ukraine getting more ammo, far from it. it’s just that things arent so black and white, producing more doesnt mean you’re winning.
