$300 billion.

This is coolbert:

As is totally applicable to the prior blog entry American military munitions stockpiles going to take a while to replenish. TIME and MONEY both! Was anything less understood!

"The Defense Department is Looking for $300 Billion to Replenish Depleted Ammunitions Stock Sent to Ukraine"

From bigleaguepolitics.com | Jose Nino | Mar 31, 2023.

"According to a Bloomberg report published on March 11, 2023, the Defense Department is looking for the United States government to dole out over $300 billion for weapons procurement and research and development (R&D) in the 2024 fiscal year."

"This proposed budget will allegedly be allocated to replenishing weapons and munitions sent to Ukrainian forces to fight Russia in addition to enhancing American force’s capacity to fight in a potential war against China."

Money not alone will suffice. Going to take YEARS to "ramp up" production to meet demand. That war in Ukraine not over yet. Zelenskyy still adamant he needs more and more and improved and advanced war munitions. Production at current levels hardly meeting demand. Ability to replace American war-making bang stuff limited. America not even being close to the "arsenal of democracy" it was in 1945.
