The United States has handed over to Ukraine's secret plans for production of 1000 weapons - NYT

According to two US officials, Washington translated technical guidance to different weapons in Ukrainian. It does not specify what help Kiev can receive in the near future. The United States of America is going to launch a new plant for the production of artillery shells. This is stated in The New York Times. It is noted that it will be the first new large defense plant of the Pentagon, which will be built from scratch after the start of a full -scale war in Ukraine.

The company in Texas is going to produce about 30 thousand shells on a monthly basis. By the end of 2025, the US Department of Defense wants to produce about 100,000 shells on a monthly basis, and if this happens, it will mean almost ten times the increase in production, comparing the situation with a few years earlier.

The material was separately mentioned that European countries also began to increase the production of ammunition, but American defense contractors began to negotiate with the Ukrainian government to find a way to help Kiev to strengthen its defense industry. "The United States has handed over to Kiev secret plans for more than 1000 units of American weapons and translated the same number of technical guidance in English into Ukrainian," the journalists of two US officials quoted.
