NBC News Exclusive: How Military Equipment Travels From Dover Air Force Base to Ukraine



NBC News’ Courtney Kube has an exclusive look into how billions of dollars in military equipment is transported from Dover Air Force Base in Delaware to Ukraine. With President Biden pledging another $20 billion in U.S. military assistance, the U.S. military is working overtime to deliver ammunition for 155-millimeter howitzers, which U.S. defense officials hope stops Russia’s new advances. The flight to the drop-off point in Poland takes ten hours, but how the weapons get to Ukraine is classified. » Subscribe to NBC News: http://nbcnews.to/SubscribeToNBC

  1. Suppose this info not to be secret?

  2. Are you afraid your a target for the Russians. Well, you are but what are you going to do. Let's use brains and advertise the plane you fly for the world to see. Don't worry. We won't blur out the name of you planes. Oh you don't wear parachutes on the flights. Wow your brave.

  3. they should drop all these explosives on moscow to wake up the russians who keep supproting warciminal putin and his generals

  4. Weapons of freedom. God bless Ukraine.

  5. Yea NBC,tell everyone how we deliver military aid to Ukraine….good job…..NOT!
    So stupid!

  6. those pilots are making bank!!

  7. and when the Russians show up and shoot them down then what?
    Think it through
    cargoes of death sew seeds of strife

  8. 🤦‍♂️ next day Russia will blow up or capture what a waste. Please make peace talk those money can rebuild Ukraine

  9. All the equipment is heading right where it’s needs, great job. Greetings from the uk 🇬🇧

  10. And these weapons are supposed to stop.this war….??!

  11. Kudos to the pilots and all the crews

  12. Wait..sanctions..coups..I'm waiting for the final 4th riech empire..wait..big delay

  13. Wait..we got send weapons to iraq..wait..weapons to libya..wait..wait..syria..yemen. wait..ukraine neocon SS..

  14. Ww2 ..supporting russia…ww3..supporting russia..??.I smell some evil black plague again

  15. GOD bless AMERICA & UKRAINE!

  16. wish someone would do a piece on how it's paid for who sold it for how much and how much more is ordered. That might clear up some nagging questions I've had over why Ukraine would throw out friendly relationships with Russia that Ukraine gained profits ,relevance , security, fairly debt free existence, peacefully living with no threatening activities from anyone to suddenly reverse actions and start provoking Russia disregard there peace treaties and turn down sweat hart deals Russia offers to forget joining nato and u.n witch comes with expenses, dues, and none stop aggressive positioning, never living peaceful with neighbors again. It's the biggest mistake ever made by country. it all started with 2014 revolution then corrupt deals with crooked usa globalist politicians who love conflict and profiting from conflict. Ukraine government sold out its people and handed country to IMF with crushing interest on debt. soon they will have deficits in trillions like usa. only ones benefiting is nato and u.n they now seem relevant again after 41 years of nothing to do.

  17. God bless everyone for assisting Ukraine…
    But why show this….why alert Russia.
    It should be classified

  18. Bad idea for showing the caro.It can be easily target… unnecessary news😆

  19. Stop telling Russia what they are doing just take to Ukraine no talk

  20. They should worry now, you just show their plane !!!

  21. NBC and whoever agrees to make this "free intelligence" video is probably the most stupid thing I have seen since this war began. Anyone with half a brain seeing these planes depart can establish it's arrival time and pass it on, but no, NBC even gives the flying time and after that they naively state, with a very seriously mysterious tone of voice, that it is "classified". What a joke. Do you really think Russia is not tracking these shipments after that, and now initially, since the carrier name is displayed for everyone to see? Russia claims to have hit 800 targets in the last 24 hours. Where do you think that the initial intelligence come from, and for free, if not from NBC? And sadly you are not alone in this stupidity.

  22. I don't know if I could fly a plane loaded with 3000 rounds of artillery! Kudos to the pilots!

  23. How come Ukrainian need more weapons the fact that stinger and javelin are very effective against Russian tanks? Are Russian tanks are like hundred of thousands? Why still not wipe all out those Russian tanks if this javelin are very effective against those equipment? Big question

  24. Too bad Brian Williams isn't around to quote Leonard Cohen again and wax orgasmic about weapons.

  25. Russians HATE America and Americans SO much they have a special offensive word for America and Americans. If you are an American they will call you a Peendos! In Russian language it sounds very BAD! Think twice before trusting Russians!

  26. How are these clips not a national security violation of U.S. & Ukrainian military operations❓😳🧐🤔

  27. Brave pilots 🇺🇦🇺🇲🚛✈️

  28. These planes are loaded and flown 24-7 from Dover to Poland. These flights will continue forever till the Russian’s are done. US government with republicans and democrats united on this journey 🇺🇦🇺🇸

  29. I pray that this trip will be bless by God to help Ukraine

  30. With help from US, Poland and more than 40 other countries Ukrainians will prevail. Down with aggressive Russia bullying the world! Reagan was right: devil's empire must go! Either now or never.

  31. let’s give God thanks that these planes can take off with so much equipments for such long journey in the sky’s, It’s a miracle. And while we’re here, let’s pray that this genocide will be over. Ukrainians are really desperate to have peace and a warm bed to sleep in like us. it has gone on too long.

  32. The brave Ukrainian soldiers in Marupol have done an amazing job liberating the city and themselves.  From 17 or 25 thousand down to 1000 in the steel planet. The rest have escaped to eternity with the help of American weapons.  I think the more we send to Ukrainians, the likely Ukrain will win .

  33. I love America is sending Military aid but should we be telling Russia and other enemies what and how we are doing? I thank all the military service and the brave air pilots 🇺🇸🇺🇦

  34. It is fascinating to watch the USA announcements turn to reality and delivery to the Ukraine soldiers. Keep up the good work folks, it is appreciated by us all who are on the side of democracy.

  35. LOL!
    Putin does not have the guts to shoot down a American plane.

  36. I really hate western media. U r escalating the problem by telling russians how this equipment is getting there. R u trying to start ww3?? Putin is cornered and has no choice but to escalate

  37. Why do we say these things if I can here it don't you think information can reach Russia we talk too much
