    More plausibly, US has now run through its stocks of weapons sending them to Ukraine, and doesn’t have the weapons to send.

    That is the most wildly implausible thing I’ve read on Lemmy today.

        Western media openly admits that US isn’t able to keep up with ammunition production for Ukraine.

        Yes, but that only applies to artillery shells and there’s a very good reason.
