The deal for the production of medium-caliber ammunition will not involve any Northrop Grumman personnel in the country, as it plans to "do this work from [the company's] operations in the United States," the spokesperson told the magazine. In June, the defense contractor's director of international business, Dave Bartell, said Northrop Grumman also had plans to establish production of tank ammunition and 155-millimeter shells in Ukraine. Western countries have been providing massive military and financial aid to Kiev since the start of Russia's military operation in Ukraine in February 2022. The Kremlin has consistently warned against continued arms deliveries to Ukraine, saying it would lead to further escalation of the conflict.
