(U.S. Defense Dept.)\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n

Today, the Department of Defense (DoD) announces the authorization of a Presidential Drawdown of security assistance valued at up to $400 million to meet Ukraine’s critical security and defense needs. This authorization is the Biden Administration’s twenty-fifth drawdown of equipment from DoD inventories for Ukraine since August 2021.<\/p>\n

Capabilities in this package include:
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Missiles for HAWK air defense systems;
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Four Avenger air defense systems and\u00a0Stinger missiles;
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Additional ammunition for High Mobility Artillery Rocket Systems (HIMARS);
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a021,000 155mm artillery rounds;
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0500 precision-guided 155mm artillery rounds;
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a010,000 120mm mortar rounds;
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0100 High Mobility Multipurpose Wheeled Vehicles (HMMWVs);
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0400 grenade launchers;
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Small arms, optics, and more than 20,000,000 rounds of small arms ammunition;
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Demolition equipment for obstacle clearing;
\n\u2022\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Cold weather protective gear.<\/p>\n

With Russia’s unrelenting and brutal air attacks on Ukrainian critical infrastructure, additional air defense capabilities are critical. The HAWK missiles, which will be refurbished using Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative funds, will complement Spain’s recent commitment of HAWK launchers to help Ukraine meet this threat. The Avenger short-range air defense systems will also provide Ukraine with capability to protect Ukrainian troops and critical infrastructure against Unmanned Aerial Systems and helicopters.<\/p>\n

In total, the United States has committed more than $19.3 billion in security assistance to Ukraine since the beginning of the Biden Administration. Since 2014, the United States has committed more than $21.4 billion in security assistance to Ukraine and more than $18.6 billion since the beginning of Russia’s unprovoked and brutal invasion on February 24.<\/p>\n

To meet Ukraine’s evolving battlefield requirements, the United States will continue to work with its Allies and partners to provide Ukraine with key capabilities.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
