The US wants to supply more Stryker armoured personnel carriers (APCs) and Bradley infantry fighting vehicles (IFVs) in the latest assistance package to Ukraine.

The package will provide Ukraine with USD325 million worth of equipment from US stocks, the Pentagon announced on 13 June. The 15 Bradleys and 10 Strykers will help support Ukrainian offensive operations as vehicles are damaged, said Deputy Pentagon Press Secretary Sabrina Singh.

Singh told reporters the Pentagon has always anticipated systems would get damaged and had plans in place to replace some of these systems. The US has not included Bradleys and Strykers in assistance packages since early 2023, but some packages included mobility assistance equipment such as bridging tools.

“I don't know that it'd be a one-to-one ratio every time, but something that went into our calculations when we provide this equipment to the Ukrainians is that there could be battlefield losses and damages,” she said.
