Europe's plan for war didn't need lots of artillery shells. However Europe isn't providing Ukraine with the air power needed to fight without lots of artillery which makes one wonder if they have enough capacity to build more if a competent Russia had attacked Europe instead.

Fair point. A united Europe can certainly defeat Russia, it's only a divided one I'm concerned with.
