Interesting list, I don't recall the US (or any other of the allies) saying they have given the Ukes 105mm guns yet the US is sending 36,000 rounds of 105mm ammunition.
Russia's lunch eaten by private companies and others, eg Brazil.

The problem is the Russian artillery and rockets.
These tanks are kuk but when they can saturate a region with so much artillery and cassette bombs and 'napalm', they can make their short term advances.
That's why the West needs to get Ukraine more HIMARS and especially self propelled howitzers.
They are buying more but that will take time.

I suspect training is also an issue, they have now got a declared 8 HIMARS, they can start training additional troops on them as they use them. Next delivery could be another 8 and then another 8 etc

I don't think the Russkies are going to like having HIMARS come visit.

Nico: I'll ignore RONA/Kaminski/Muravyov/Vlasov and just focus on those Ukrainians who sided with the Germans, even though my own adopted Frenchmen also sided with Nazi Germans via Vichy.
This is cherry picking and special pleading from Nico, who continues to use fallacies.
What's telling is that if we look at the Nazi SS Russian collaborators MANY were WHITE RUSSIANS or RUSSIAN NATIONALISTS, i.e. not even Communists so the same ideology in charge at RF today.
the difference is that you won't find a statue in France celebrating a comparable figure to Stephan Bandera.

I hope this is the "game changer" Ukraine needed in order to push the illegal invaders out of their country.

Rich coming from the country that imposed a famine on Syria and who gave money to the Saudi government that starved the children to Yemen to death.
Bandera is not celebrated for his pro-Nazi actions but for his anti-Russian ones.
Stalin the guy who gave Jews to Hitler in 1939, in 2019 had an 80% popularity rating in Mother Russia.
