EP 85: Latest US Security Assistance Package to Ukraine (6 Jan) Has Lots of Artillery + Bradley & Marder Fighting Vehicles to Ukraine + USMC Mid-Range Intercept Capability + Update on the IVAS Program

It's a long episode (didn't plan it that way though). We had to spend some time on the latest security assistance package to Ukraine. It includes Bradley Fighting Vehicles and a lot of artillery.  In addition, we have three articles from the Breaking Defense website: #1: Discusses the latest armored vehicles heading to Ukraine; #2. A great update on the Army's IVAS program; and #3. A story about the USMC and their Air & Missile Defense effort that includes the Iron Dome system. And as a bonus- some unnecessary commentary from me on why Stryker Formations strive to maintain a light-fighter ethos.
