U.S. Nears Agreement to Supply Ukraine with JASSM Long-Range Missiles by Autumn 2024

Sep 3, 2024, 12:24 PM

The United States is nearing an agreement to supply Ukraine with long-range cruise missiles, specifically the Joint Air-to-Surface Standoff Missiles (JASSM). These missiles are capable of reaching deep into Russian territory, potentially altering the strategic landscape of the conflict. The decision is expected to be announced in autumn 2024, but delivery could take several months as the U.S. addresses technical issues. The integration of these missiles into the Ukrainian military is already underway, and the aid package will include these advanced weapons. U.S. officials have indicated that the agreement is close, according to Reuters.
