NATO to buy 1000 Patriot Missiles

WASHINGTON: NATO will buy 1000 Patriot Missiles to strengthen the air defences amid the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war.

US company Raytheon and German company MBDA have been awarded the $ 5.5 billion contract. Commenting on the development NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg said: “I welcome Allies’ timely announcement to invest in up to 1,000 new Patriot air defence missiles to bolster the Alliance’s security.

“This investment shows the strength of transatlantic defence cooperation and NATO’s commitment to keeping our people safe. Russian missile and drone attacks on Ukrainian civilians, cities and towns show how important modern air defences are. Scaling-up ammunition production is key for Ukraine’s security and for ours.”
