“Here is the best-kept secret about U.S. military aid to Ukraine: Most of the money is being spent here in the United States. That’s right: Funds that lawmakers approve to arm Ukraine are not going directly to Ukraine but being used stateside to build new weapons or to replace weapons sent to replace weapons sent to Kyiv from U.S. stockpiles. Of the $68 billion in military and related assistance Congress has approved since Russia invaded Ukraine, almost 90 percent is going to Americans, one analysis found.”

Rearming the US Military... Remember that 6B that was lost. Actually, that accounting error was made by pricing aid to Ukraine in replacement costs per unit for new equipment for the US Military as repacements. All of Europe in NATO are giving aid to Ukraine but replacing it with new equipment. In this way, less money is required to re-arm with new equipment and new generations of equipment for the US Military. It was never about Ukraine, it was about the next generation of equipment replenishment for the Pentagon.
