A huge amount of TNT gunpowder material was consumed during the wars between Ukraine and Israel.
The price of gunpowder materials, which used to cost 1 pound (about 0.45 kg) at 50 cents (about 730 won), skyrocketed to more than $20 (about 20,000 won).
Why is tnt gunpowder material used in explosives important?
It also goes into weapons like missiles.
Contains ammunition used by armored weapons such as tanks and self-propelled guns.
And the 155mm artillery shell that Ukraine really wants contains a lot of TNT materials.
However, the country that currently produces the most explosive material, TNT, is Poland.
When the war between Ukraine and Israel began, orders for gunpowder materials increased enormously, and the current production was not enough, so prices soared.
But
NATO analyzed that the cause of the TNT material shortage was
It was pointed out that this missile is used more often than 155mm artillery shells.
It was pointed out that many of these missile weapons were used in Israel’s wars, leading to the problem of supply shortage.
So, Toramp realized that there was a production delay and shortage of high-performance missile weapons.
The United States hastily launched a TNT gunpowder factory in Kentucky to secure supply and demand through domestic production.
It will take until 2028 for it to start and begin full-scale production, so it is quite late.
TNT material, which we considered trivial and not a big deal, has now become an important national security core.
