>The production capacity of Abrams tanks is 12 units per month. Only one plant is working, three others are idle - there are not enough qualified workers.
>Germany is resuming the production of tanks and could theoretically increase the production of the latest modification of the Leopard-2 to 140 by 2027. Nobody knows how to do this in practice - there are not enough specialists, such as welders of armored steel, there are not enough engineers. The deficiency must be restored, and this takes time.
>Oddly enough, among Western countries, the United States is not in the first place in terms of production. And not even Germany. The Slovak holding ZVS is now producing about 20 thousand shells per month, by the end of this year they will try to reach the level of 100 thousand shells.
>The US, on the other hand, produces about 14,000 shells per month. The Pentagon has invested (as it is now called) 2 billion dollars in order to bring the production to 20 thousand shells per month by the end of this year - and in plans already in 2024 one can hope for a level of 90 thousand shells per month.
>According to Western intelligence estimates, until the beginning of 2022, the production of 152-caliber shells in Russia was 1.7 million pieces per year (slightly more than 141 thousand pieces per month). In 2022, Russia almost doubled the output, to 3.3 million shells per year (275 thousand per month), and already in January, Sergei Shoigu announced that by the end of 2023, the output would to 5 million shells per year (416-417 thousand per month).
