Pentagon says $3B in new Ukraine aid will ‘change dynamic’ in fight with Russia |
WASHINGTON — The United States will send 50 Bradley Fighting
Vehicles as part of another $3 billion in military aid to Ukraine, which is the
largest amount spent on a security assistance package for the country since
Russian forces invaded last year, the Pentagon announced Friday. Pentagon officials said it is the first time that U.S. military
aid to Ukraine will include the Bradley Fighting Vehicle, known as a “tank
killer.” The new shipment of arms also includes 500 missiles for the armored
personnel and attack vehicles to fire. Of the various Bradley models, officials said Ukraine is getting
the M2A2 — a variant introduced in the late 1980s that is equipped with
stronger armor and a more powerful engine. Defense officials said the Bradleys
can help with “complex maneuvers” in all weather conditions. Also for the first time, the Pentagon is sending more than a
dozen 155mm self-propelled Howitzers. “The Bradley [Fighting Vehicles] and other armored vehicles and
artillery systems will complement the recent commitment of combat vehicles to
Ukraine by Germany and France,” the Defense Department said in a statement. |
