Russia sparks furious US response after claims troops 'may have been killed' in Ukraine


The report added the strike was the first time Moscow had managed to strike a US-supplied air defence system.

US factories shipped out nearly $162 billion worth of military goods last year, according to the Census Bureau.

The shipments increased 8.1 percent compared to 2022. The supplemental funding could further drive factory production upward this year.

But defence manufacturing can be volatile. Spending declined between 2010 and 2015.

It then grew over the next four years, only to dip in 2021 and then climb again after Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022.

The Biden administration has made an increase in the manufacturing capacity of defense contractors a priority, with a plan to increase the production of 155-millimeter artillery shells six-fold over three years.
