The rate of stockpile depletion is even worse than the dollar amount betrays. We're chewing through years of production, they're chewing through years of production. Crucially, they're chewing through years of production in items we're not expending at all and so will still be there should we need them, or should we decide to say fuck it, be heroes, and give ukr a load of cruise missiles, jets, and tanks. Money, you can make it and lose it. Time, you only lose that.
I think that's going to be the final calculus in this, where two near peer industrial bases (and that's being generous to russia) are paired off..but the second party only has a near peer army...with ukraine....also being generous.

I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
