Yes, that was one of the things I was worried about when I mentioned the lack of big guns. Far easier to resupply shells than highly complex rockets, cruise missiles etc. etc. It wouldn't surprise me if that part of the operational 'fine detail' had either been left out of the sales pitch or forgotten about somewhere along the line.
