According to a CBS report a few days ago, according to an inspection report from the US Department of Defense, the US ammunition factory in Mesquite, Texas, which spent 469 million US dollars, failed to produce qualified 155 mm shell components in the two years after construction, making the US military's plan to increase shell production impossible. The report indicates that in the past 4 years, the US military's inventory of 155 mm shells has been reduced by 3.6 million rounds, but the report does not indicate how many shells are left in the current inventory.
