The issue is that dollars do not make weapons via alchemy, Europe spent shittons of money on of artillery shells to Ukraine, just to raise the price of existing shells without making any more new ones.

The raised price of new shells is already causing new ones to be made. It is now a more profitable endeavor.

There is no supply. If there's not enough capacity to produce the thing - the money's going to end up in those fat MIC pockets. End of story
