He’s just another lying Ukie shill.
M777 howitzers surplus to requirements. The 105mms are very much surplus to requirements.
So are Bradleys.
Stingers are obsolete. The US Army is now buying Polish Piorun.
Hawk, Avenger, M113, Humvee, MRAPs (Maxpro), TOW,
etc. are obsolete or surplus to requirements.
We can run down through the list if you like.
One thing the US SHOULD be sending is 400-500 M109 SP howitzers. Which are also surplus to requirements. And Ukraine is already using a bunch of them from Nato countries.
You are the one that just posted Biden admin propaganda.
Your list sounds fancy, but the reality in most cases is when Biden says “276 Tactical Vehicles to tow weapons” he means a pile of 25 year old Dacia’s from a Romanian scrap yard.
“Approximately 1,800 Phoenix Ghost Tactical Unmanned Aerial Systems”
When do I get mine??
Jeez, out here in the West we’re being invaded!
So give us some nice stuff like this so WE can defend our dirt!
Great list !
Quite some gear there.
Add to that Ukrainians impressive absolutism and military skills in defending their country with their OWN blood, no wonder “mighty” Russia is going nowhere after 12 months of war against a comparatively minuscule country.
