Some Of $3.4 Billion Weapons Sent To Ukraine Will End Up In Black Market – Others May Come Back To Haunt U.S. & Europe

President Biden has decided to send yet another round of military weapon package worth a staggering US$800 million to Ukraine. Since Russia’s invasion two months ago, the United States has splashed US$3.4 billion in weapons. In fact, the latest military aid is the eighth installment, and we haven’t talked about similar assistance from the European Union.

In the latest weapons aid, the U.S. will give away 121 tactical unmanned aerial systems called “Phoenix Ghost” drones. Before the Ukraine War, very little is known about this drone. The Phoenix Ghost is a UAV that uses the “kamikaze” technique to destroy its target. It is similar to “Switchblade” drones, but can loiter for 6 hours compared to Switchblade’s 1 hour, searching for targets.
