I went to law school so I wouldn't have to do math, but that certainly seems to me like a lot less than 100 years. That's a lot of tanks - their entire inventory right now is only about 300 tanks. And building tanks is probably a bit more complicated than artillery or ordinance. So it seems to me that if Germany can increase their entire tank inventory by a third in about five years, they should be able to manage increasing their artillery supply in less than a century, if pressed.

The point is that even in the face of the very thing they claim is their number 1 existential threat...they're not in a hurry.
They just aren't, I'm sorry.
