They still aren't using longest range HIMARS etc missiles. They still are restricted to targets within the limited range of border firing with the current allowed missiles, and so on... Also what IS provided is done in insufficient batches often months later than they should have arrived.

;tldr NATO has required UA to fight with one hand behind its back this whole time because they are worried putting a metaphorical gun in the second hand would escalate ru to full blown hostilities with them too and in reality a strong, no BS, unrestricted support with a 'we dare you to bitch about it' stance years ago would have prevented this whole debacle from even beginning before Crimea was invaded.
