Jaså? Denna ryska frivilligesoldat håller inte med dig.

Även the Economist, som citerar flera högt uppsatta inom västerländska försvar, ger en bild av att ryssaran börjar få ont om just artilleriammunition.

Eller varför inte theins.ru, som redan i slutet av augusti skrev bl.a "As a result, it turns out that during the six months of aggression against Ukraine, Russia should have spent at least 7 million shells, not counting the losses of frontline depots as a result of Ukrainian strikes. In other words, if the intensity of the war remains at its current level, Moscow will face a tangible shell shortage by the end of 2022 and will have to reduce its use of artillery in order to save munitions"

Och givetvis denna inte allt för muntra läsning, ryske frivilligsoldaten "Murz": "Separate fierce fuck-up are the constantly popping up videos from the 1st Army Corps of the DPR showing firing from tanks from closed positions, practiced on a regular basis. The horror here, of course, is not that tanks shoot from closed positions, they can do it, a good tankman should be able to do it, moreover, tankmen were trained for this in 2016-2017 and the KCPN carried manuals for this on the topic. The horror is that with the silent catastrophic lack of shells in artillery (you can’t talk about it, because then someone will have to answer for it, but no one wants to), it was decided to replace artillery with tanks on a regular basis."

Så nej, det ryska artilleriet verkar inte imponera just nu.
Anekdotiska historier av soldater som argument ger jag inte mycket för tyvärr.
Din ryska källa är en Kremlfientlig publikation som finansieras av Väst.
Hade det varit en MSM i Ryssland hade det varit värt något.
Artikeln från the Economist ligger bakom betalvägg så det är svårt att verifiera uppgifterna.
Här är en öppen artikel istället

"Military experts disagree on when Russia might run out of ammunition, with estimates ranging from a few months to more than a year.
Russia’s “defense industrial base is still intact. It’s under a lot of strain from sanctions, but it’s still intact,” said Dara Massicot, a senior policy researcher at the Rand Corp. think tank."“Russia is trying to grab hold of the reins of their defense industry right now and make it produce more.”
"Russian factories are increasing production, moving to multiple shifts and bringing additional capacity online, said Paul Schwartz, a research scientist focusing on Russia’s military at the Center for Naval Analyses think tank."
"But it will be difficult to produce ammunition at levels sufficient to keep up with how much is being used on the battlefield, he said.
U.S. defense officials said last month that Russia is burning through a staggering 20,000 rounds a day, and Ukraine about 4,000 to 7,000 a day."
Dessvärre finns det inget just nu som tyder på att ryssarna har fått brist på ammo med tanke på att de går på offensiv på många frontavsnitt samtidigt och de gör det mha artilleri precis som tidigare.
När det gäller Ukraina så vet vi redan att de har brist och de kan absolut inte matcha fiendens volymer. Det kallas för underläge om man både har brist på ammo och på trupper.
