Z asked for 10 systems. They are getting 10 of a previously Biden-approved shipment of 30. As far as I know Trump has not authorized any more than that. It's like he wants to make a big positive event for the Ukrainian partisans...while not authorizing anything new, and cutting previous authorization by 67%. Has anyone heard of newly authorized munitions?

Yeah, Trump is playing a pretty smart hand on the pauses and weapons deliveries. Nobody dares to call him on it because if they do he will just cut them off completely on the theory that if he is going to take heat from the media on weapons cuts, he might as well go all in and cut to zero. .

We have to have a certain number for our defense. We aren’t on a war footing producing mass weaponry like Russia.
