#US military aid

The United States has temporarily suspended deliveries of key ammunition and air defense missiles to Ukraine, including Patriot interceptors, GMLRS, Stinger, AIM-7 missiles, and 155mm artillery shells.

A surprising twist in the ongoing battle for armored superiority has emerged in Russia, where a US-supplied to Ukraine M2 Bradley infantry fighting vehicle (IFV) has been photographed fitted with a Russian-made 30mm 2A72 cannon, despite previous claims that Western tanks and IFVs are overrated and “essentially useless.”

The head of Russia’s state defense conglomerate Rostec, Sergey Chemezov, has dismissed Western tanks as overrated, claiming that German Leopard tanks and American Abrams offer nothing of value to Russian designers—and branding the British Challenger 2 as essentially useless.
