The U.S. has approved a massive $1.23 billion missile deal with Germany, sending 400 advanced AIM-120D-3 air-to-air missiles and related equipment to strengthen NATO’s defenses. The sale comes as tensions with Russia escalate, with Pentagon officials emphasizing that the move supports European security and NATO operational readiness. This deal also ties into Germany’s F-35 program and broader modernization of its air force. Experts warn this could further heighten the standoff with Moscow, which has already expressed concern over renewed militarization in Europe.
