MOSCOW, November 15 — RIA Novosti. Due to military supplies to Ukraine, the United States is seriously depleting its ammunition arsenal, writes Military columnist Caleb Larson in an article for Newsweek.
A critical ammunition shortage, the publication notes, could lead to «enormous consequences». Especially during the First World War Great Britain in 1915 there was a missile crisis that resulted not only in the catastrophic defeat of the British at the Battle of Ober Ridge, but also in a change of government, and in 2016 in the lack of precisely guided ammunition in USAF led some coalition partners in the fight against ISIS * (banned in Russia terrorist) turned their backs on America.
Larson believes the US industrial base must be «off the track». «You have to expand it — no, not transfer it to the military, but at least make sure that it meets the current needs» — the observer is convinced.
