“Dover Air Force Base specialists are loading weapons for foreign military sales on AtlasAirWorldwide aircraft for shipment to Ukraine,” the agency said.

It should be noted that this spring and summer Ukraine has received military equipment worth more than $ 60 million from the United States. Among them are Javelin missiles with launchers, radios, ammunition, radars, etc.
