While the amount of total 'ammo' that can be reloaded is defined in the truck/supply point's CfgVehicles entry, the amount each round of ammunition takes from that total is defined in the CfgAmmo 'Cost' entry for that round. Your typical truck has 300000 ammo capacity, and the tunguska's missiles have a Cost of 50000. So the tunguska can reload a total of 6 missiles from the ammo truck before the ammo capacity is depleted and needs to be set with setAmmoCargo. A similar thing applies with a vehicle's cfgVehicle Cost entry for repairing, and the vehicle's fuelCapacity entry when refuelling.

(Arma 3 1.44) setAmmoCargo will have no effect if the vehicle doesn't support getAmmoCargo.
