Since the beginning of this most recent phase of the conflict, the United States has been the principal supplier of Ukrainian military arms and systems. It has presented America with an unrivaled test and assessment of its Military Production Capacity. On paper, this was a mismatch of historical proportions. After all, the US is the world's most significant arms producer. Of every dollar spent on global military production, the US produces 63 cents. That's right, nearly two-thirds of all weapons produced worldwide are "made in the USA."
