The United States summed up the interim results of the supply of weapons and military equipment to Ukraine. The report was provided by the Transport Command of the US Armed Forces (USTRANSCOM), which is engaged in the transportation of military personnel, equipment and resources of the US Armed Forces around the world by all means of transport.

According to the report, to date, the United States has delivered 23.8 thousand tons of weapons and equipment to Ukraine. For the delivery of goods from the United States to Europe, heavy transport aircraft were used both as part of the US Air Force and chartered civilian ones. A total of 486 flights were made. Also, 20 ships, 50 railway trains and 1.5 thousand car trailers were involved in the delivery of weapons.

During the reporting period, the United States transferred almost 24,000 anti-tank guided missiles, 1,033 anti-aircraft missile systems and 1,468 missiles to the Ukrainian army. We are probably talking about portable Stinger anti-aircraft systems. In addition, the AFU received 90 towed howitzers, here we are talking about the M777, 33 radars (without explanation), 7888 automatic weapons (automatic rifles and pistols) and 60 million rounds of ammunition for NATO caliber small arms. In addition to weapons, protective equipment was also supplied, the United States supplied Kiev with 50 thousand protective helmets and 68.5 thousand bulletproof vests.

There is no information about the supply of large-caliber ammunition, in particular 155-mm shells for M777 howitzers, although the Pentagon announced their delivery together with the guns. It is possible that they were delivered later and were not included in this report. Let's not forget that Biden signed a decree to allocate $ 40 billion to Ukraine, of which 20 will go to armaments.

In addition to the United States, the European Union also supplied military equipment and weapons to Ukraine, and the volumes there were also serious. It would be desirable for Brussels to calculate how much has been sent to Kiev, otherwise it is possible to arm a small army only with what is supplied by the Americans.
