The shortage of missiles for Patriots will persist for another year, — Bloomberg.
According to Bloomberg’s estimate, only in the 2027-2028 years will Ukraine receive 600 PAC-2 missiles produced in Germany. Right now European stocks of missiles for Patriot systems have fallen to a minimum, and countries are reluctant to give them to Ukraine. The EU is demanding firm guarantees from the United States regarding new deliveries.
The license promised by Trump to produce interceptors in Ukraine has still not been implemented. The same applies to the program announced in February by the five leading European defense budgets to create inexpensive air defense systems.
