And somehow nafo weapons and munitions are magically not being used up?

And you seem to be missing the strategic component here; the world sees nafo using the hohols like Gary Ridgway used cheap whores and nafo gear and training being clearly inferior. Not a good look especially considering that the military and economic clout of the west is increasingly being shown to be a paper tiger. Nafo is clearly thinking a few weeks down the road where everyone else is planning a decade or more in advance.
