What is OP suggesting we do then? We've given Ukraine billions in money and resources, the only other thing left is boots on the ground, no?

On a drip feed. That means when a strategic opening emerges, e.g. Russian warships within Storm Shadow range, they got one or two pot shots off before running out of ammo, letting the Russians retreat and adapt.
Ukraine needs more air-defence batteries and ammunition. It needs F-16s. (For both offense and defense.) And it needs the ability to strike valid military targets in Russia, the way it has been doing with its own weapons, the way Russia has been doing to it.

31 Abrams and 190 Bradleys, zero planes, zero cruise missiles. All while there are 3 million DPICM, thousands of Bradleys and hundreds of ATACMS waiting to be scrapped in US, all decommissioned and on a list to be send to expensive recycling.
