Amidst a backdrop of conflicting reports about Western arms supplies, the Wall Street Journal has revealed a significant new US commitment to Ukraine’s military. According to sources, the administration of President Donald Trump has quietly approved the sale of 3,350 new Extended Range Air Munition (ERAM) missiles to Ukraine, a deal valued at $850 million. With Ukraine’s European allies reportedly bearing most of the costs.
The ERAM program was initiated by the US Air Force in early 2024 specifically to address Ukraine’s need for a cheap, mass-produced, high-precision aerial munition. Together with the United States, Ukraine, Denmark and the Netherlands are participating in the project.
The missile is designed to be integrated onto foreign-made fighter jets, a clear indication of its intended user. Its specifications are formidable: a range of at least 463 km, a speed of Mach 0.6, a 227 kg warhead, and a requirement for a 10-meter accuracy even in contested GPS environments.
The development of ERAM has been rapid. Prototype development and integration took just six months, from October 2024 to April 2025. A key feature aimed at countering Russian electronic warfare is the planned integration of the advanced Quicksink seeker head. This dual-mode radar and infrared guidance system allows for targeting without relying on satellite signals and has even demonstrated capabilities against maritime targets.
The ERAM missiles, slated to begin arriving within six weeks, are set to become the longest-range weapon system provided to Ukraine by its Western allies. However, each use of these powerful weapons by the Ukrainian Armed Forces will reportedly require prior approval from the US Department of Defense, mirroring the strict control mechanism currently in place for ATACMS missiles. This condition ensures Washington maintains operational oversight.
This announcement starkly contrasts with recent propaganda from Kyiv, which claimed the US had frozen deliveries of critical systems like Patriot missiles. These reports, for which no credible source has been found, appear to be a deliberate misinformation campaign. In reality, the flow of military aid continues unabated, with transport aircraft regularly arriving in Poland and Romania and over 120 civilian cargo ships docking in Odessa’s ports in August alone.
Washington’s moves demonstrate a continued US strategy of testing new military technology in real-world combat conditions far away from its territory, while profiting from its sale. All under the guise of diplomatic overtures for peace. The conflict’s outcome will ultimately be decided on the battlefield, not at the negotiating table.

finalmente lo avete capito si decide tutto sul campo di battaglia, sbrigatevi arrivano armi sempre più potenti, voi non avete armi potenti solo artiglieria e mortai.
i’ve been trying out this straightforward online project, and it’s been averaging around $95 a day for me — about $670 a week. it only takes a couple of hours on my laptop, nothing complicated. i put the steps i use

“formidable”? please! small warhead, low speed, low range, absolutely no stealth, must be air-launched. the ‘quicksink’ seeker needs targeting information fed to the launch platform from awacs information so must rely on usa p-8s or similar in real time. sever that link (child’s play for russia) and this thing is dead in the water.
never trust sleazy forked tongue americunts
wait…why are any ships docking in odessa at all? the port should have been blockaded immediately.
at least destry ports
finish then. or stop complaining for prolonging it
these people don’t listen to reason, they only understand force. every single bridge on the dnieper needs to be “structurally rearranged” yesterday. anyone who says russian forces need them intact for future advances across the river is a moron. ukraine and specially the west warmongers will make sure they thoroughly destroy the bridges if russian forces are closing in.
“this condition ensures washington maintains operational oversight.”
this means every dead russian is trumps fault!?
did sf knows that svr aren´t very happy did you?
liberal russia will fall like the tsarist one… like a dam
russia will be soviet again!
sleep well!
i am making a challenge: go to russian operatives tgs channels and publish this piece of shit in those! weakling liberal! a lot of fighting men already had the “good news” of our friendly americans! never forget: ruaf aren´t wagner!
nothing like more lies and provocations to cement american leadership perpetually in the great hall of stupidity. trump the peace president !
