Details: The U.S. Department of Defense has said that General Dynamics Land Systems, Sterling Heights, Michigan, "was awarded a $27,100,000 firm-fixed-price contract", presumably for M1A1 tanks.

The funds were allocated according to the Initiative to promote the security of Ukraine. It provides for the ministry to enter into appropriate contracts with manufacturers, and not to provide one or another equipment and means directly from the Pentagon's stocks.
