In order to grasp the construction of ammunition reserve and supply capacity of the US in preparing for the great power competition, the existing ammunition reserve and supply problems of the US are analyzed, and the main reasons for the shortage of ammunition production capacity are expounded. Based on the information of the US defense budget documents, strategic planning documents, official websites of the government and the military, authoritative websites, think tank reports and journal articles, the important means and measures of the US to strengthen the ammunition reserve and supply capacity construction are systematically sorted from the dimensions of demand side, acquisition level, industrial supply side, digital manufacturing level and storage facility deployment, which reflects its overall construction ideas and ammunition procurement scale goals, and reflects its determination to deter and defeat China. The results show that the US military is examining its ammunition demand and supply in future wars based on the lack of ammunition industry capacity exposed in the Russia-Ukraine conflict. The US military is accelerating the increase of ammunition production capacity by means of digital intelligence technology empowerment, aiming at meeting the ammunition demand of great power competition.
