The US is considering providing Ukraine with medium-range cruise missiles for its new F-16 fleet as part of an upcoming military aid package. The package is expected to be worth $375 million and is expected to be formally announced on Monday.
The Joint Standoff Weapon cruise bomb, already in service with the US Air Force and Navy, as well as some allies, is capable of hitting targets at a distance of more than 70 miles (112.6 km).
According to two US officials and another source familiar with the situation, the package will also include artillery ammunition, missiles and air defense equipment. However, according to them, the composition of the package may change before its official announcement.
