Problem here is that Turkey itself is one of the main producers of advanced machine tools. Most of new American artillery shell plants are equipped with Turkish made equipment – it’s just the best nowadays (along with South Korean).
It’s a huge problem. Read “How does Russia make missiles?” at https://www.rhodus.com
Most of Russian weapons are made on European equipment. Mostly German, Italian, Austrian, a little bit South Korean and Taiwanese, almost none made by Russia itself
If they stop being able to get spare parts, the machines will stop working in months.
So preventing any smuggling of spare parts for existing machines is super high priority. That requires selling spare parts directly (no distributors or middlemen, especially not in smuggling-friendly countries), and then tracing parts end to end and verifying exactly where they get installed.
This is doable, just inconvenient, but it can truly end the war
If it’s known, why isn’t it stopped?
