I wonder how much of the weapons Trump sells to NATO will actually be passed on to Ukraine.

Trump told NATO to put on their big boy pants and defend itself. Suddenly NATO is scrambling to pull together an equipped military after years of neglect. Germany plans to buy some of the Patriot systems for itself, and give its old systems to Ukraine. I think there will be a combination of skimming off the top and trading out old equipment. Germany, and likely others in NATO know the Ukraine can't win, so they aren't going to send the most advanced weapons to Ukraine for destruction.

nice roundabout way to send more offensive weapons.

The United States has far more Patriot batteries than any other military — more than 60 of the estimated 180 worldwide, according to weapons trackers at the International Institute for Strategic Studies in London.

The article says Ukraine has six working batteries, with two under repair.

How many in total have they received?

I wonder if there are any weapons left to sell to NATO as production of new weapons is NEXT TO NOTHING compared to their consumption in Ukraine.
