Highlights: Main artillery systems for the Armed Forces of Ukraine are Western-made systems of 105 and 155 mm calibers. Shells for artillery guns of these calibers are supplied almost from the first packages of military aid. But it quickly became obvious that the consumption of artillery guns is significantly higher than the calculated parameters. The main problem in this case is in the analysis of the artillery guns, according to the authors of the Military Chronicle. The problem has been noted for a long time, but it has worsened due to a number of other factors.

The shortage of ammunition and difficulties with the maintenance and use of foreign artillery have been noted in the Ukrainian army for a long time, but by now this problem has worsened due to a number of other factors, writes the Military Chronicle.
