The U.S. Department of Defense has published a list of weapons that Ukraine will receive as part of another $200 million military aid package announced on July 29, as well as a $1.5 billion defense order.
This is stated on the department's website.
The Pentagon noted that the United States is allocating a $200 million package within the framework of the presidential arms reduction authority, which means that the weapons will come to Ukraine directly from the US Army.
In addition, the US Department of Defense announced the allocation of about $1.5 billion under the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI), which provides for the conclusion of long-term contracts with arms manufacturers.
Both packages include ammunition for HIMARS, NASAMS, and short- and medium-range air defense systems, RIM-7 air defense missiles, 155-mm and 105-mm artillery shells, 120-mm mortar shells, and precision-guided aircraft munitions.
The list also includes Javelin and AT-4 anti-tank systems, TOW anti-tank guided missiles, electronic warfare equipment, small arms, explosives, secure communications systems, commercial satellite imagery services, and spare parts.
