Word

Foreign Military Financing: FMF is a foreign policy tool that provides grants for acquiring US defense equipment to strategic partners and allies who otherwise may not be able to afford it or where the US wants to boost region-specific national defense capabilities. 

So What: Poland received another $4B FMF loan, bringing the total to $11B in FMF guarantees since the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. Expect this to translate into US defense sales opportunities in 2025.
