Ukrainian authorities requested these spare parts to maintain vehicles and weapons systems supplied by the US Army, as well as for additional logistics and programme support.
Under the previous administration of President Joe Biden, the US supplied hundreds of armoured vehicles and tanks to Ukraine.
According to a statement from the DSCA, the spare parts are expected to enhance battlefield operations, improve logistics, and reduce financial pressure by enabling quicker repair cycles.
The DSCA stated: “This proposed sale will support the foreign policy and national security objectives of the United States by improving the security of a partner country that is a force for political stability and economic progress in Europe.”
