Russian leader Vladimir Putin publicly admitted on Tuesday that his forces lack the ammo, drones, aircraft, and communications equipment to fuel the Kremlin's war in Ukraine.
"During the special military operation, it became clear that many things were missing," he told state media at a press conference. "These are high-precision ammunition, communications equipment, aircraft, drones, and so on."
And that's even after Russia ramped up manufacturing of military equipment, according to figures cited by Putin.
"We had a 2.7-fold increase in production for the main types of weapons over the year, and 10 times for the most demanded areas," Putin said, per Interfax.
It's the second time this week that Putin has spoken of shortages in Russia's arsenal of ammunition. On Friday, he said in a statement on the Kremlin's website that its forces
"do not yet have enough modern arms" for the war.
On Friday, Putin said Moscow has been working to fill the gap, and that Russia's military industries are "intensively building up production of modern weapons."
