Germany provides "Patriot" air defense systems for "queue jumping" as the US accelerates arms sales to Ukraine.

Jin10 data July 19 - On July 18 local time, the Trump administration in the United States adjusted the order of arms deliveries, placing Germany ahead of Switzerland to prioritize its receipt of the next batch of "Patriot" air defense systems. Three U.S. officials revealed that this is the first time the Pentagon has actively assisted in coordinating the transfer of weapons to Ukraine since Trump announced earlier this month to "support allies in paying more for Ukraine military aid." On July 14, Trump stated during a joint press conference at the White House with visiting NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte that the U.S. would provide Ukraine with "top weapons worth billions of dollars, which will first be sent to NATO," including "a complete set of 'Patriot' systems."
