U.S. approves sale of 600 patriot missiles to Germany worth $5 Billion
The deal is expected to make Germany work more closely to U.S. and NATO military forces.
The United States has authorized the selling of up to 600 Patriot missiles to Germany in a deal valued at 5 billion dollars. This major military agreement will increase the defense potentials of Germany among soaring global challenges. The DSCA also went on to further state that the proposed sale would not only support U.S. foreign policy and national security but would further increase Germany’s security as a key NATO ally dedicated to further ensuring the stability of Europe.
The acquisition of the PAC-3 MSE Missiles is intended to substantially improve Germany’s defense capability against the existing and future threats, making it very much in line with the great emphasis on the field of national and territorial defense. It also should have the effect of making Germany work more closely with U.S. and NATO military forces.
This all arrives as Germany remains in support of Ukraine through the donation of some of its existing Patriot systems, which are to help defend against ongoing missile attacks and drone strikes undertaken by Russia. Germany has morphed from a historically pacifist policy on military matters into one of the greatest supporters of Kyiv after the conflict in Ukraine began in 2022, a role seconded only to that of the United States.
The deal still awaits congressional approval, which will review the terms of the transaction before it can finally get clearance.
