The United States is planning to sell $ 8 billion in Israel, which will be one of the largest agreements between the two countries. According to reference to AXIOS sources, the US State Department has recently informed Congress about the proposal of this Agreement, which will include missiles, artillery shells and shock helicopters and fighters. The Agreement is part of a long -term Israeli security strategy, in which the US plans to replenish the reserves of critical ammunition and air defense.
This Agreement will also be the last sale of Israeli weapons approved by Presidential Administration Joe Baiden. It includes AIM-20C-8 AMRAAM missiles for fighters, artillery shells, Hellfire AGM-114 missiles for shock helicopters and airbags. It also responds to the recent statements of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyag and his supporters about the possible "embargo" for the supply of weapons from the United States.
Some representatives of the US Democratic Party have advocated that the sale of weapons depend on how Israel conducts its hostilities and solves the humanitarian situation in gas, but Biden refused to associate the sale with these conditions.
According to reports, some of the supply can be made at the expense of available US inventories, but most of the years will take several years to produce and deliver.
