The U.S. Army Security Assistance Command has provided details on its fiscal year 2022 priorities and initiatives to provide security assistance to Ukraine and other nations through foreign military sales missions, DVIDS reported Wednesday.
USASAC said that since February, it has delivered weapons, training and equipment worth $2 billion to help Ukraine defend itself against Russia and has ended the fiscal year with $14.1 billion in new business.
Training Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Interior to counter terrorist threats and protect critical infrastructure and managing the country’s Ministry of National Guard modernization initiative were other priorities of the command in 2022.
Over the past year, USASAC’s Security Assistance Training Management Organization also employed 30 security assistance teams in 16 countries in support of its mission to implement security assistance programs.
USASAC also made several leadership changes in FY 2022 including the appointment of Brig. Gen. Brad Nicholson as commander in May, who succeeded Brig. Gen. Garrick Harmon.
