Putin's invasion of neighbouring countries combined with Xi's sabre rattling over Taiwan, the China/ India border regions and the South China Sea has international buyers busting down the doors of American arms manufacturers.

The delivery time frame for some new orders can be a decade or more so don't expect the numbers to add up or be promoted in this year's US Budget. The order books are in any case growing and may be much higher in value than what has been "given" to Ukraine.

Many of Ukraine's allies have donated old equipment to Ukraine with an intention to replace it with new materiel from the US. Donated MIG 29s are being replaced with F35s.

The number of skilled US based jobs resulting from long term military procurements and collaborations is significant. Much more significant than the 5% of Defence Budget that Putin's traitorous caucus in Congress is whinging about.

It would be nice if democracies didn't need to spend much on defence but sadly that is not the world we live in.

Journalists may do well to explore the numbers IMHO.

Well said, its all about throwing ukkie lives so they can buy new weapons lol.

Anyone with a brain wouldve given the ukkes couple hundreds of f35s and few aircraft carrier group

But of coz, we all know this is nothing but a proxy war for the ukkes to die using obselete and expired equipments so that, as said, could buy new ones
