WASHINGTON -- Japan will sell an undisclosed number of Japanese-made Patriot missiles to the U.S. for 3 billion yen ($19 million) to help replenish American stockpiles that have been running low after boosting Ukraine's air defenses.
The agreement, announced by Japan's Acquisition, Technology & Logistics Agency (ATLA) on Sunday, comes seven months after Japan decided to transfer some of the Self-Defense Forces' (SDF) existing Patriots at the request of the Biden administration.
