Lead Time to Replace Munitions Supplied to Ukraine - Status FUBAR
[CSIS] As the United States transfers massive amounts of weapons, munitions, and supplies to Ukraine, questions arise about the health of U.S. inventories. Are inventories getting too low? How long will it take to rebuild those inventories? An earlier CSIS commentary identified those inventories that are at risk as a result of transfers to Ukraine. This commentary continues that analysis by examining inventory replacement times. Most inventories, though not all, will take many years to replace. For most items, there are workarounds, but there may be a crisis brewing over artillery ammunition.
There is a nice table, colour coded, of the systems under discussion. Most are tagged with red — unlikely to rebuild inventories within five years. Discussion at the link.
