Both Russia and Ukraine have been focusing on long range weapons. Which means finding enough of this has become a major priority for both sides. They are burning through a lot of resources as they pound each other with long-range artillery weapons. The weapons themselves come in many shapes and sizes.

俄罗斯和乌克兰都在关注远程武器。这意味着找到足够多的这种武器已经成为双方的首要任务。他们用远程火炮武器互相攻击,消耗了大量资源。这种武器本身有多种形状和大小。

Estimates for how much ammunition both sides are using in the Ukraine war vary widely. Western experts estimate Ukraine used between 6,000 to 7,000 artillery shells a day in the summer of 2022, and Russia between 20,000 and 60,000. Exact numbers are military secrets. But even when considering conservative estimates, that's more than either side can produce itself. The Unites States, Ukraine's main supplier of ammunition, only produced around 500 rounds a day at the time. And that is just counting conventional shells, not rockets.

双方在乌克兰战争中使用的弹药数量估计差异很大。西方专家估计,在2022年夏天,乌克兰每天使用6,000至7,000发炮弹,俄罗斯每天使用20,000至60,000发炮弹。确切数字是军事机密。但即使保守估计,这个数字也超过了任何一方本身的产量。作为乌克兰主要的弹药供应国,美国当时每天只生产大约500发炮弹。这还只是计算常规炮弹,不包括火箭。

When it comes to Russian supplies, it's clear the country is digging deep into its stocks. Ukrainian officials say Russia is firing less artillery shells now than last year, and using old ammunition, which suggests the Russian military is trying to conserve shells.

说到俄罗斯的供应,很明显该国正在深入挖掘其库存。乌克兰官员说,俄罗斯现在发射的炮弹比去年少,而且使用的是旧弹药,这表明俄罗斯军方正在努力保存炮弹。

Ukraine on the other hand has to deal with a mix of old Soviet equipment and modern weapons supplied by Western allies. Ukraine is dependent on those allies to deliver enough ammunition for the weapons they provided. And they need deal with the logistical issues, caused by all these different weapons needing all kinds of different supplies and parts. Both sides are now having to ration supplies, including ammunition. And upping capacities to re-stock will take a significant amount of time. For that, both sides depend on other nations. As the war drags on, these issues are likely to become even more important. Russia is expected to launch a fresh offensive that will keep burning through its stocks - and Ukraine is already pleading with the West for more ammunition to defend itself.”

另一方面,乌克兰必须应对苏联的旧装备和西方盟国提供的现代武器。乌克兰依赖这些盟友为其提供的武器供应足够的弹药。他们还需要应对后勤问题,因为所有这些不同的武器需要各种不同的物资和部件。双方现在都不得不定量供应物资,包括弹药。提高再储备的能力将需要相当长的时间。为此,双方都依赖其他国家。随着战争的持续,这些问题可能会变得更加重要。俄罗斯预计将发动新的攻势,继续消耗其库存,而乌克兰已经在恳求西方国家提供更多弹药来自卫。
