Despite receiving $533 million, an American factory operated by General Dynamics has not produced any usable 155mm shells for Ukraine. The factory in Mesquite, Texas, equipped with expensive Turkish machinery, experienced constant equipment failures, including robotic manipulators losing control and presses ruining munitions. By August 2025, the factory had missed eight deadlines and produced no ammunition, costing American taxpayers $533 million. Despite this failure, General Dynamics received new Pentagon contracts.
