The United Kingdom is set to acquire 3,000 air-to-ground projectiles with a total value of $957.4 million. These missiles are predominantly utilized for short-distance aerial offensives. Lockheed Martin has been designated as the chief sales contractor for this transaction.
Simultaneously, the US State Department has greenlit the prospective sale of 150 state-of-the-art anti-radar guided missiles to Finland, at a cost of $500 million. These projectiles are engineered to incapacitate enemy radar installations, thereby impairing their ability to mount an effective defense. Northrop Grumman has been selected as the principal contractor for the Finnish deal.
In a related development, the Pentagon has disclosed the likely sale of 36 cutting-edge medium-range air-to-air missiles to Lithuania. Raytheon has been appointed as the primary contractor for this initiative.
Following the transfer of some of their own armaments to Kyiv, European nations are vigorously restocking their weapon caches with American-made military hardware. Among the most sought-after categories of weaponry are man-portable air defense systems, artillery, and unmanned aerial vehicles, all of which have demonstrated their indispensability in military engagements in Ukraine.
