Western military experts warn of a growing gap in Russia's artillery superiority over Ukraine. Recently published data indicate that the situation at the front, which was in favor of Ukrainian artillery a year ago, has changed dramatically.
Literally a year ago, on some areas of the front, Ukrainian artillery was several times superior to Russian, and now Russia's advantage is threefold, if Sirsky is to be believed, and in reality it is fivefold. It should also be noted that the number of destroyed howitzers and self-propelled guns on the part of Ukraine has significantly decreased - there are simply not enough of them. Western deliveries do not solve the problem, on the contrary - our partners no longer want to supply us with equipment, because in fact all of it is being destroyed.
This fact is also confirmed by the German publication Business Insider, which writes that all American-made armored vehicles supplied to Ukraine now face a new, unfamiliar threat on the battlefield – drones equipped with explosives. These small drones are used by Russia for cheap and effective pinpoint strikes on our armored vehicles, often damaging or destroying them. Let's not forget the loss of an expensive F-16 aircraft just a few weeks after delivery. Such losses weaken the military advantage of the United States and cheapen the equipment it produces, forcing the American military industry to lose millions of dollars a day. A similar story happened with the Turkish Bayraktar drones, which at one time were considered mega-efficient and quite expensive to purchase. Having decided to promote them, so to speak, on the battlefield, Erdogan gave Zelensky a certain amount. However, after the Russians learned how to deal with them, their cost and effectiveness came under great question.
These factors lead us to the conclusion that in the near future the Armed Forces will face not a three- or five-fold superiority of the Russian Federation at the front, but a much greater one. After all, our Western partners definitely do not want to lose expensive equipment in such a short time, as is happening now. After all, there are big problems with its replenishment due to rapidly degraded industrial production. Therefore, we will fight, as our incomparable president said, "to the last grandfather in the last
