The US is ramping up its artillery production to continue aiding Ukraine and resupply its stockpile. A Pentagon official said the US aims to be producing 100,000 155mm artillery shells by 2025. "But every country struggles with munitions production as war goes on beyond a few months." Western officials, meanwhile, believe Russia is on track to manufacture two million artillery shells a year, the Times reported this week. A Ukrainian soldier carries 155mm shells for M777 artillery at a artillery position in the Donetsk Oblast on August 6, 2023.

The high rate of fire has strained US stockpiles of 155 mm artillery shells that it's sent to Kyiv. But the Army has a plan to boost munitions production from 24,000 to over 80,000 a month. Ukrainian servicemen prepare to fire at Russian positions from a U.S.-supplied M777 howitzer in Kharkiv region, Ukraine, July 14, 2022. In any conflict, critical resources like artillery ammunition may be in high demand, Bush said. That includes more than 2 million 155 mm artillery rounds and nearly 200 howitzers that can be used to fire these munitions.
