The Ukrainian air defence arsenal is set to get a boost, this time with US-made Avenger systems. The Biden administration will send Ukraine four Avenger air defence systems as part of its latest $400 million weapons package. The new tranche from the US also includes additional HAWK surface-to-air missiles, Humvees and other ammunition and small arms.
Apart from US-supplied Avengers, Kyiv is also expected to receive the Italian and French made SAMP/T air defence batteries. SAMP/T will reportedly be a part of Italy’s sixth arms package to Ukraine, expected to be delivered in the new few weeks
In a recent interview to an Italian publication, Ukrainian President Zelensky said that he has specifically asked Rome to send air defence capabilities.
