On Ukraine’s front lines, U.S.-supplied equipment is falling apart

 U.S.-supplied equipment is falling apart


  • Fake Saddam weapons of mass destruction
  • Fake Revolutions
  • Fake currency
  • Fake economy
  • Fake politics




The United States has delivered more than $260 million in non-lethal military equipment to help the government of Ukraine in its fight against a Russian-backed insurgency, but some of the U.S.-supplied gear meant to protect and transport Ukrainian military forces is little more than junk.


On the outskirts of the separatist-controlled city of Donetsk, for example, one Ukrainian special forces unit is using U.S.-supplied Humvees dating from the late 1980s and early 1990s, based on serial numbers on the vehicles.
