The US has promised Ukraine a new military aid package including more Bradley infantry fighting vehicles.

The US-made armored vehicles, which offer maneuverability, versatility, and sufficient firepower, have proven valuable to Ukraine efforts on the battlefield — more so than the main battle tanks and other heavy armor it’s received.

The US Department of Defense announced the aid package, estimated at $250 million, on Friday, noting that it “will provide Ukraine additional capabilities to meet its most urgent needs, including: air defense missiles; munitions for rocket systems and artillery; armored vehicles; and anti-tank weapons.”

    Another ACG here (arm chair general) maybe it’s logic today too because so many russian tanks have been blown up and are thus a much smaller threat?

    Great news anyways!
