Kyrylo Budanov, the chief of Ukraine’s military intelligence (HUR), hopes that Canada could hand over to Ukraine tens of thousands of rockets that are awaiting demolition at one of the country’s military bases.
More than 83,000 CRV7 ground attack rockets are warehoused at Canadian Forces Ammunition Depot Dundurn, south of Saskatoon. Canada no longer has any use for them, and has selected a private contractor to demolish the rockets.
Speaking with the Global News outlet, Budanov said donating the rockets will help Ukraine fend off Russian forces and save Canadian taxpayers the cost of destroying them.

Sigh. You don’t buy these without proper storage. Seriously why would you go through all the cost of manufacturing them ($$$) and not the cost of storing them properly (¢).
My guy, this was done generations ago, maybe at the time of purchase in the 70s, they came with awesome storage. Now not so much. We can’t even house most of our military personnel in non mold and fungus infested barracks or ships, you think they’re going to make sure the obsolete soviet era missiles have nice sleeping quarters?
Because though a person is smart, people are stupid. Man made disasters are usually not because persons involved in it is stupid, but because the people involved in it are. Being in groups just seem to make all the members braindead.
You don’t know a lot about people do you?
People will spend a ton on something and then completely skimp on storage
