A senior official confirmed late Tuesday that the U.S. will send to Ukraine the most advanced air defense weapon in its arsenal. The new weapons package marks President Zelensky's visit to Washington on Wednesday.
The Biden administration will send to Ukraine the most advanced air defense weapon in its arsenal, the Patriot missile system, a senior administration official said late Tuesday, marking the most significant addition to American military support for the government in Kyiv in months.
Zelensky has sought the Patriot system for months, as Russia carries out a barrage of lethal strikes that have extended well beyond military targets, according to U.S. and Ukrainian assessments, and left much of the country without electricity, heat and running water. After months of refusing those entreaties, in recent weeks senior administration officials recommended to Biden that the air defense system be sent to Kyiv.
The Pentagon also has sent surface-to-air missiles known as HAWKs, short for Homing All the Way Killer. The missiles are used for air defense and fired from launchers that Spain provided Ukraine.
