WASHINGTON, March 1 - The U.S. State Department is poised to officially clear the sale of Javelin anti-tank missiles to Ukraine, in a long-awaited move that will give Ukraine’s military a new capability four years after Russia’s annexation of Crimea, Defense News reported.
The potential sale would be worth an estimated $47 million, covering 210 Javelin missiles and 37 Javelin command launch units, or CLU, plus two more for spares.
