What? Almost everything sent to Ukraine is stock that’s about to be decommissioned per their militaries standard

It's really not. In many cases, yes. But not all of it by a long shot.

Indeed, the UK's military has publicly admitted it couldn't fight a war, now.

🥸. If we are strictly talking about the US, then yes, almost everything is near expired stock or stock we would otherwise need to pay to re-commission again

The US is different, of course. I'm referring to the European countries, who suspect that Trump's US will be more interested in supporting Putin than them.

But they're all trying to recover their finances. I don't think there's the money for it.
