(Worthy News) – The U.S. State Department has approved a $510 million arms deal with Israel for the sale of precision-guided bomb kits, following recent Israeli and U.S. military operations targeting Iranian nuclear infrastructure. The Defense Security Cooperation Agency (DSCA) notified Congress of the proposed sale on Monday.
The package includes 3,845 KMU-558B/B JDAM kits for BLU-109 bunker-buster bombs and 3,280 KMU-572 F/B kits for MK 82 bombs, along with engineering, logistics, and technical support services. These kits convert unguided bombs into GPS-precision munitions and are expected to bolster Israel’s ability to defend its territory and infrastructure.
The DSCA stated the deal supports U.S. national security interests by enhancing Israel’s defense capabilities and promoting regional stability. Officials added that the sale will not alter the overall military balance in the Middle East.
The announcement follows Operation Rising Lion, in which Israel struck Iranian nuclear sites, and Operation Midnight Hammer, a U.S. strike on Iranian facilities authorized by President Donald Trump. At a recent press briefing, Trump said he would “absolutely” consider future strikes if Iran resumes nuclear enrichment.
Boeing will serve as the primary contractor, with some items potentially coming from existing U.S. stockpiles. No offset agreements are currently proposed, though any such deals would be negotiated between Boeing and Israel directly.
U.S. officials confirmed that the sale would not require additional American personnel in Israel and would not affect U.S. military readiness. The deal underscores ongoing U.S. support for Israel’s military modernization in the face of growing threats from Iran and its regional proxies.
