Ukraine Received $8.2 Billion in U.S. Aid Under USAI Program From October Through March

From October 2025 through March 2026, Ukraine received $8.2 billion in military aid from the United States, allocated during the Biden administration as part of the USAI program.

This was reported by Militarnyi following an analysis of the audit reports for “Operation Atlantic Resolve Including U.S. Government Activities Related to Ukraine,” covering the fourth quarter of 2025 and the first quarter of 2026.

As of October 2025, according to estimates by the U.S. Department of Defense, the value of defense goods and services delivered to Ukraine amounted to approximately 33% of the $33.31 billion in total USAI appropriations.

At the same time, as of March 2026, the value of defense goods and services funded by USAI appropriations and transferred to Ukraine had already reached $19.21 billion, or 57% of the total USAI appropriations.

Thus, between November and March, Ukraine received approximately $8.2 billion in military aid. At the same time, Ukraine is set to receive an additional $13.61 billion worth of weapons.

Of this amount, $110 million has already been allocated but not yet disbursed, while $13.49 billion has already been allocated to orders that have not yet been paid for. Another $910 million has expired and is no longer available for new commitments but can still be used to cover increases in commitments made in previous years or to settle existing obligations.

At the same time, during the first quarter of 2026, the U.S. Department of Defense actually paid out only approximately $757 million in contracts, which could lead to delays in future deliveries, even with nominally significant balances of aid yet to be received.

As a reminder, in late April 2026, the Pentagon unlocked a $400 million military aid package for Ukraine, previously approved by the U.S. Congress. During a testimony before a House of Representatives committee, Pentagon chief Pete Hagseth stated that the funding had already been transferred.

The day before, in an article for The Washington Post, Senator McConnell stated that the U.S. aid approved several months ago had been ‘gathering dust’ at the Pentagon.

According to him, the committee’s attempts to obtain an explanation from U.S. Deputy Secretary of Defense for Policy Elbridge Colby ended in ‘evasiveness.’ The senator recalled that last year, it was Colby who was behind the decision to suspend arms deliveries to Ukraine.

Acting Pentagon Comptroller Jules Hurst, who also testified before the House committee, reported that the contracts for these funds have not yet been signed.

He noted that exactly how this $400 million will be spent will depend on what weapons or equipment Ukraine wishes to purchase.
