The Biden administration is likely to send Ukraine long-range Army Tactical Missile Systems, or ATACMS, to help in its fight to repel the Russian invasion of its territory, according to U.S. officials.

“They are coming,” said one official who had access to security assistance plans. The official noted that, as always, such plans are subject to change until officially announced.

A second official said the missiles are “on the table” and likely to be included in an upcoming security assistance package, adding that a final decision has not been made. It could be months before Ukraine receives the missiles, according to the official.

    I wonder if the delay was to gather a stockpile

      These are not the first weapons systems America has given them. Just the biggest.

    As the Russians are in full retreat and suffering massive casualties as a result, these missile systems will serve more as a deterrent than an offensive weapon. With any luck the Russian forces that are left alive will cross the border and the conflict resolved by January.

          Yup. Pretty soon the Russians will be rolling up in dump trucks and tractors supplied by NK.
