The US’s unified Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM) – which combines the US Air Force’s Air Mobility Command (AMC), the US Navy’s Sealift Command, and the US Army’s Surface Deployment and Distribution Command – has made impressive logistical gains over the past year to supply the Armed Forces of Ukraine (AFU) and backfill NATO countries supplying arms and equipment since Russia’s full-scale invasion began 15 months ago.

The joint military leadership in the US recently published updates to the amount of materiel and personnel delivered to support allies and partners in Europe – by air, sea and land.


USTRANSCOM deliveries as of May 15

Scrutiny of the two graphics, which shows cumulative figures, shows that in May alone the US government delivered the following key equipment:

· 6.1 million artillery rounds

· 13,247 anti-tank guided weapons

· 624 anti-aircraft missiles

· 2 radar systems

· 1.3 million rounds of small arms ammunition
