nah that’s right. we’ve sent ukraine a shit ton of basically decommissioned shit. and even then we’ve been weirdly stingy, and unresponsive to their non military aid requests (their biggest ask is glass)
I am guessing that outside of the frontlines bombings are still fairly rare events. Risk is low enough for installing proper windows, but high enough to ensure there are not enough.
And a part of that is old stuff that would be decommissioned so the cash is to make the new products. Or so I have understood it.

Uhh… why glass?
Probably on account of every window in every city being broken by shockwaves from bombardments
Wouldn’t plexiglass be a better thing to ask for during war time in that case?

also ukrainian winters are notably brutal
And we’re also saving a bunch on disposal costs for the old stuff.
