The answers are inbetween.
It is clear that our 155mm production sucks and that 155mm shells are needed in large numbers in a peer contest.
Building 155mm capacity is itself beneficial, in that we are learning how to build more production lines and learn how to ramp.
No amount of money is 'useful' per se. What we care about the skills of our workers to reliably and consistently perform in these production lines.

We get the best of both worlds. We can practice and ramp up production, building the production skills. But it's the Ukrainians who are putting their lives on the line. A bit grim, but this is very beneficial to us.
