Using the
M113A3 for the first question, it is
unclear whether or not they're getting the mated MG 12.7mm from us.
Italy has already sent them the M2 Browning 12.7mm and it's in the field and has been for about two weeks now with some not working properly (Now fixed from
poor PMS by Italy.), however Italy did supply them with ammo.
To the second in the area of Armor and Artillery the donating countries
have sent them out with ammo. Using the U.S. by way of example and the following is also now
confirmed, when we shipped the first set of
M777 155mm artillery they went with
180,000+ rounds of ammo.
So
yes, for ammo being supplied from rifles to artillery shells.
It should be noted the Ukraine
has been handed over 80% of the
M777 units shipped from the U.S. as of four days ago.
