Ahhh.
I'd wondered why Germany didn't kick up as much fuss about supplying Gepard to Ukraine, especially when the Gepard can also fire armour piercing rounds. It turns out that the ammo for Gepard is produced in Switzerland who, being neutral, refused additional shipments when Ukraine started to get low.
It now looks as if Switzerland also got a kicking at Ramstein and might be about to drop it's objections to other nations handing over more ammo and even Swiss kit to Ukraine.
