US likely to send long-range ATACMS missiles to Ukraine for the first time: Officials
The United States is likely to send long-range ATACMS missiles to help Ukraine defend itself, officials tell ABC News.
The Biden administration is likely to send Ukraine long-range Army Tactical Missile Systems, or ATACMS, to help in its fight to repel the Russian invasion of its territory, according to U.S. officials.
"They are coming," said one official who had access to security assistance plans. The official noted that, as always, such plans are subject to change until officially announced.
A second official said the missiles are "on the table" and likely to be included in an upcoming security assistance package, adding that a final decision has not been made. It could be months before Ukraine receives the missiles, according to the official.

I wonder if the delay was to gather a stockpile
As frustrating as the delay was, I think that may have been a primary factor.
Ohhh lawd they comin
Bummer they can't send them directly to Mos🤮ow
Europe would prefer to avoid WWIII thank you.
2 years too late motherfuckers. But better late than never.
These are not the first weapons systems America has given them. Just the biggest.
As the Russians are in full retreat and suffering massive casualties as a result, these missile systems will serve more as a deterrent than an offensive weapon. With any luck the Russian forces that are left alive will cross the border and the conflict resolved by January.
