The US is preparing to send Stingers and Javelins to Ukraine – Pentagon

Ukraine will receive Stinger anti-aircraft systems, Javelin anti-tank missile systems, and other weapons from the United States.

This is stated on Twitter by the Ministry of Defense.

The US Air Force is preparing weapons for deployment at Dover Air Force Base.

The military assistance of 322m dollars to Ukraine was agreed upon during the visit of US Secretary of State Anthony Blinken and Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin to Kyiv.

On April 7, the US Senate approved a bill allowing the country to introduce a land lease program for Ukraine.

This means that weapons will reach us faster, and their quality is likely to improve significantly.
