The United States approved the sale of aviation munitions to Ukraine for $825 million

This was reported by the U.S. Department of State.

The State Department noted that Ukraine has expressed a desire to purchase up to 3,350 Extended Range Missiles (ERAM) and the same number of GPS/INS modules.

The total cost is estimated at 825 million dollars.

The aid package also includes:

• containers for missiles;
• mounting pylons;
• components and auxiliary equipment;
• spare parts, consumables, and accessories;
• repair and return services;
• weapon software and auxiliary equipment;
• mission planning system hardware;
• delivery and support of classified software;
• classified and unclassified publications and technical documentation;
• personnel training and training equipment;
• transportation support;
• research and surveys;
• engineering, technical, and logistical services from the U.S. government and contractors;
• other related elements of logistical and program support.

The total cost is estimated at 825 million dollars.

"This proposed sale will contribute to the foreign policy and national security objectives of the United States by enhancing the security of a partner country that is a force for political stability and economic progress in Europe," emphasized the State Department.

The U.S. believes that the new aid package will improve Ukraine’s ability to counter current and future threats by further equipping it to carry out self-defence and regional security tasks. Additionally, the State Department believes that Ukraine will not have difficulties implementing these goods and services into its armed forces.

Ukraine will use funding from Denmark, the Netherlands, and Norway, as well as foreign military financing from the United States, for this purchase.
