Low on ammo

You see this? The UK only has 8 days worth of ammo to sustain major conflict. 100 years ago they had the world by the balls with the largest empire in history now they are just dust in the wind.

Australia only has about 18 hours worth of ammo.

Well our armed services could watch a few episodes of Dad's Army. They will soon get the hang of it, I guess. :?

Ukraine needs our (and NATO's) ammo more than we do at the moment. Putin knows this, as does Xi whose country is one of the 2 leading suppliers of a very essential ammunition component. A liitle bit of paranoia never hurt.

On Russia day, putin said they have 700,000 deployed and the progress is not as fast as expected but progressing well. Russia is out producing all of NATO when it comes to ammo. Im hoping when the conflict ends there'll be peace and cheap ex military ammo again.
