Original Note:
The $8billion being sent to Ukraine for their defense is not in cash, but rather in older, surplus military materiel - most of which was scheduled for decommissioning. Giving it on lend lease to Ukraine actually saves money on decommissioning costs. https://www.nonproliferation.org/wp-content/uploads/npr/kopte32.pdf
