Apparantly the Czechs are sourcing a bunch of ammunition from outside Europe but won't say where from specifically, anyone have any idea where they could be getting them?

Mentioned in this article, I've looked through a few different articles and none expand on who they are buying from. This article just says "third countries" and the others I've read say even less.

Serbia, probably.

I clearly remember the usual suspects claiming the Russians were pulling old rusty WW2 equipment from museums, lol

when will the orcs lose?

What is maximum effective range. These things are hilariously outranged and they didn't even send 155mm shells.

This is what's known as scrapping the bottom of the barrel but to be fair, it's still more impressive than Frances recent contributions.

i tend to disagree, frances verbal contributions outweigh any material goods. no trust now between france and russia anyway.

This video was posted 8 months ago, showing T-55 tanks being deployed from Voronezh.

Russian armament factories are working 24/7 producing new tanks and upgrading older T72 tanks

Meanwhile NATO is desperately scraping the bottom of the barrel for more artillery shells

I will not engage in a contest of who has the best, the most and the merriest.
I just answered a statement claiming that Russia does not use outdated equipment.

It is no surprise that an army like Russia outweighs Ukraine when it comes to the sheer mass of its military arsenal.

Ukraine has to my knowledge also used old equipment, such as the PM1910, its usage dating back to WWI
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PM_M1910

"In 2014 during the war in Donbas, some Maxims in stock were captured by the Pro-Russian separatists while others were taken from storage to be used by the Ukrainian Armed Forces.[5] A number were used by the Ukrainian military during the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine due to their reputation for accuracy and reliability."

Sure, we all know that Russia has way more resources.

The interesting question in this regard is why didn't NATO acknowledge that from the start and why did we see high ranking officials claiming Russia was running out of everything and stripping washing machines for chips.
