Tungsten penetrators perform better than DU ones. They’re just more expensive and Ukrainian lives aren’t worth that much.

Plenty enough to rip through the Russian armor! These are just old stockpiles of ammunition that weren’t getting use anyways.

I know it hard for the recently scratched liberals to understand this, but It’s perfectly okay to decommission a weapon, you don’t have to use it on people to get rid of it.
