Is it really depleted? Pretty sure you yourself have posted about USA sending large bombs to Israel (I remember because I've asked if they are comparable to Russian FABs)
Those bombs aren't even used on Ukraine because Russia have air superiority, and USA have absolute shitton of them because their main modus operandi is aerial terror campaigns so they still have plenty in arsenals. Problem is with what is actually used, even something as seemingly simple as ordinary artillery shells.
Well yeah, and the tools for that appear to be far from depleted
Right, the weapons that aren't being used in Ukraine because Russia has actual air defence aren't being depleted. Things that are being used like artillery shells and ATACMS, are very much being depleted, and that's being admitted openly now. Furthermore, US has to be everywhere at once to maintain the empire. There's Ukraine, Africa, Latin America, West Asia, Korea, Japan, Philippines, etc. US has to supply weapons to all these regions, and as it becomes increasingly challenged across the globe, it's starting to have to pick its battles. Hence why US is being kicked out of Africa now.
Yeah, and the western terrorists still possess the world's largest nuclear arsenal. We're talking about weapons relevant to a prolonged war against a force capable of defending its airspace. We're talking about weapons relevant to actual war, not terror campaigns against guerrillas and comparably poorly equipped freedom fighters. Wtf are you talking about?
I'm talking about the wars that USA and Co have been waging in order to extract resources, obtain markets, etc
But the tools of aerial terror campaign are only good for aerial terror campaigns, not conventional war.
Ukraine and Yemen prove otherwise.
How so?
In Ukraine only one side getting aerial bombed and it's the side USA arms and supports. In Yemen, half of NATO engaged in the biggest naval operation since WW2 and also in their typical aerial terror campaign but they didn't stopped Ansar Allah even a bit.
Idk about stores of modern weapons, but a lot of retired stuff in warehouses are gone in a demonic iphone upgrade program at the public's expense where any piece of aged equipment was donated to make room in a warehouse for Raytheon's tank du jour.
