The USA will give Ukraine 8 armored vehicles that can launch bridges for crossing rivers.
On Friday, the US announced a $400 million military aid package. The new package will for the first time include “assault bridges” that deploy from armored vehicles, Voice of America reports.
The Armored Vehicle Launched Bridge is a portable, folding metal bridge that is carried on the hull of a tank. It can make it easier for the Ukrainian military to cross rivers in the process of recapturing the occupied territories.
In total, the United States has already provided Ukraine with military aid worth more than $32 billion.
