The United States is preparing to send Ukraine a new batch of military assistance, which could include the Joint Standoff Weapon (AGM-154) medium-range cruise bombs for F-16 fighters.
This was reported by URA-Inform, citing Politico.
< p>A $375 million aid package could be announced as early as Monday.
The Joint Standoff Weapon is a precision-guided bomb already used by the U.S. Air Force and Navy, as well as a number of allied nations. It can hit targets at more than 112 km away, allowing the Ukrainian military to strike the enemy from a safe distance. This will be a major boost to the Ukrainian armed forces, allowing them to operate more effectively at the front.
In addition, according to two U.S. officials and another source familiar with the situation, the package will include artillery ammunition, missiles and air defense systems. However, it is specified that the final composition of the aid may change before the official announcement.
It is worth recalling that earlier the media reported on the US plans to provide Ukraine with a large package of military aid. However, the delivery dates may be adjusted due to a shortage of weapons in warehouses Pentagon.
Also, let us recall that the goals of the operation in Kursk were changed: an insider revealed what Zelensky decided.
