The US Pentagon is ready to provide Ukraine with long-range ATACMS missiles with a range of about 290 kilometers. This was reported by UNN with reference to The Wall Street Journal.
Details
Earlier, Pentagon officials insisted that the US Armed Forces should retain all of their long-range ATACMS missiles to meet their own military needs.
However, the U.S. Defense Department is now open to the transfer of longer-range ATACMS, as the U.S. military can now use the next generation of Precision Strike Missile.
At the same time, the publication said that it is unknown whether US President Joe Biden will approve the transfer of ATACMS with a longer range than Ukraine has already received.
Recall
On Tuesday, March 12, the White House announced a new military aid package for Ukraine, including HIMARS ammunition, air defense missiles, and other equipment.
