The UK allocates $4.5B for the purchase of British weapons for Ukraine.

Britain has already provided Ukraine with £3.5B ($4.5B) to purchase modern military equipment from British manufacturers.

A British trade mission visited Ukraine to discuss further cooperation with the Ukrainian government and industry representatives, including the Ministry of Defense, the Department of Business and Trade, and the ADS Defense Association. The mission’s head, Luke Pollard, said that the country consistently supports Ukraine, not only by providing military equipment but also by developing cooperation with the Ukrainian defense industry. This helps attract investment and strengthen the capabilities of both states.

At the same time, one of the key agreements of this mission was understanding Ukraine’s needs in complex weapons and ground systems. This is important information for the British defense industry, which is already preparing for future orders.

In addition, the British Ministry of Defense concluded several contracts with British companies, particularly with Thales to supply missiles for air defense and Sheffield Forgemasters for manufacturing artillery gun elements.
