Biden Proposes $8 Billion Arms Deal to Israel for Fighter Jets, Helicopters, and Artillery
Jan 4, 2025, 04:00 AM
The Biden administration has notified Congress of a proposed $8 billion arms deal with Israel, which includes munitions for fighter jets and attack helicopters, such as AIM-120C-8 AMRAAM missiles, 155mm artillery shells, and Hellfire AGM-114 missiles, as well as small-diameter bombs, JDAM kits, 500-lb warheads, and bomb fuzes. This deal, which requires approval from both the House of Representatives and Senate committees, is intended to support Israel's long-term security by resupplying critical munitions and air defense capabilities. The notification comes as President Joe Biden approaches the end of his term, with the majority of the munitions expected to be delivered over the course of one or more years.
