The three Small Ships assigned to provide support had not been attacking for long before their ammunition was nearly depleted.
The first wave of three Attack Ships had mainly carried out probing attacks, so they had lasted much longer.
This wave's primary mission was to inflict as many casualties as possible, so naturally, ammunition was consumed quickly.
