The first batch of U.S. military aid will be delivered to Ukraine “sooner than anyone thinks is possible,” after the final approval, Bill Keating, a Massachusetts Democratic congressman, said during a press conference in Kyiv on April 22.

    Given the unparalleled machine that US military logistics is, I honestly wouldn’t be surprised by “tomorrow”. Senate is due to vote today as far as I know. Biden has said he will sign off immediately. Sounds like the stuff is ready to go from sites in Poland and Germany.

    Let’s go!!!

      I would expect the C130s are loaded and in the air on their way to Germany/Poland/[other NATO country in area) and get last minute orders to continue to go to Ukraine if Biden signs this when expected. (if they land as planned they may even need to dump fuel). This is one of those things logistics should do for practice anyway as variations of this could be important in real war situations (preserving the fiction that NATO isn’t involved in Ukraine)
