SIMI VALLEY, California \u2014 Russia is burning through its munitions stockpiles at an \u201cextraordinary\u201d rate as its\u00a0invasion of Ukraine<\/a>\u00a0grinds on into its tenth month, the nation\u2019s top intelligence official said Saturday.<\/p>\n

And Russia does not have enough ability to replace those weapons on its own, Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines said during a fireside chat at the\u00a0Reagan National Defense Forum<\/a>\u00a0here at the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library.<\/p>\n

Haines would not provide specific figures on how fast Russia\u2019s munitions are depleting, but said it is happening \u201cquite quickly.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s really pretty extraordinary, and our own sense is that they are not capable of indigenously producing what they are expending at this stage,\u201d Haines said. \u201cThat\u2019s why you see them going to other countries, effectively, to try to get ammunition.\u201d<\/p>\n

Specifically, Russia\u2019s reserves of precision munitions are running out the fastest, she said. The U.S. intelligence community and allies are paying close attention to the health of Russia\u2019s munitions stockpiles, and how they could be used in other conflicts, she said.<\/p>\n

Haines said Russia has obtained some artillery ammunition from North Korea, and that the intelligence community is also tracking those exchanges, but added \u201cit\u2019s not been a lot, at this stage.\u201d<\/p>\n

Haines\u2019 comments come as the U.S. is trying to boost its own munitions production capability as it continues supplying arms to Ukraine. For example, the\u00a0Army last week awarded Lockheed Martin<\/a>\u00a0a $431 million contract to produce more M142 High Mobility Artillery Rocket System, or HIMARS, launchers, which the U.S. has in recent months sent to Ukraine.<\/p>\n

Earlier in the day , Raytheon Technologies chief executive Greg Hayes raised concerns about the pace Stinger and Javelin munitions are being used in Ukraine, and industry\u2019s own ability to keep up.<\/p>\n

While Raytheon and Lockheed Martin are building about 400 Javelins per month, Hayes said, \u201cin the first 10 months of the war, we\u2019ve essentially used up 13 years of Stinger production, and five years worth of Javelin production. So the question is, how are we going to resupply, restock the inventories?\u201d<\/p>\n

Army Secretary Christine Wormuth said on that panel that her service has pushed $6 billion in contracts to industry to help replenish munitions. This includes the Excalibur artillery rounds, built by Raytheon and BAE, and National Advanced Surface-to-Air Munitions Systems, an air defense system also known as NASAMS from Raytheon and Kongsberg, both to supply Ukraine and to rebuild U.S. stocks.<\/p>\n

\u201cCertainly, we all would like to have greater stockpiles than we had in the last several years,\u201d Wormuth said. \u201cBut I do think we\u2019ve done a lot to put money on contract with industry, to increase production of these systems.\u201d<\/p>\n

Haines said that Russia is trying to obtain more precision munitions from Iran \u2014 which has already provided drones that Russia has used to attack Ukraine\u2019s power infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Haines called Russia\u2019s attacks on Ukraine\u2019s electrical grid, gas, heating, and other elements of its civilian infrastructure \u201coutrageous\u201d and \u201cillegal.\u201d<\/p>\n

One of Russia\u2019s motivations for carrying out these attacks is to undermine Ukraine\u2019s will to fight, she said, but the United States sees no signs that the approach is succeeding. While such a lessening may happen over time, she said, it depends on how resilient Ukraine\u2019s critical infrastructure is, and the West\u2019s ability to help the nation defend those targets.<\/p>\n

Russia\u2019s invasion has also devastated Ukraine\u2019s economy and attacks on critical infrastructure will worsen the economic toll.<\/p>\n

Haines said the pace of the war \u2014 along with Russia\u2019s steep casualty rates \u2014 has slowed recently, as winter sets in and in the wake of Russia\u2019s withdrawal from the Kherson region, most fighting now occurring in the Donetsk region.<\/p>\n

That will likely continue over the next few months, she said. But it remains to be seen what the next counteroffensive will look like once the spring thaw sets in, she said.<\/p>\n

Both nations will try to resupply and regroup their forces to prepare for the resumption of major fighting, Haines said, but the U.S. is skeptical as to whether Russia will be ready. She said she is more optimistic that Ukraine will be better prepared.<\/p>\n

Haines also said Russian President Vladimir Putin was likely surprised by his military\u2019s failure to swiftly capture Ukraine. In recent months, he has learned more about his military\u2019s on-the-ground situation, she said \u2014 but perhaps not enough to make the changes he would need.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe is becoming more informed of the challenges that the [Russian] military faces,\u201d Haines said. \u201cBut it\u2019s still not clear to us that he has a full picture at this stage of just how challenged they are. We see shortages of ammunition, poor morale, supply issues, a whole series of concerns that they\u2019re facing.\u201d<\/p>\n
