What are you saying? We flooded Ukraine with weapons. We did the maximum extent possible without actually causing world war 3.

We didn’t, the US has declined transfer of many weapon systems including Patriot and other air defense systems to Ukraine.

The US has supplied them primarily with small arms and man portable anti tank weapons.

The Ukrainian armed forces aren’t rolling in M1 under the cover of Apache gunships and F-35’s…

Even if they had the money for it no one would sell them any weapon systems you can’t pretty much buy on Gunbroker.
