Unless I'm mistaken, we don't send them literal money. We send old military equipment, gear, vehicles, etc
It's just a byproduct of the massive military industrial spending... so while it's not money that we're sending, it's stuff that we unneccessarily spent lots of money on.
In this case you may be right. I don't really know. Maybe it is 345 million in obsolete military hardware. 🤷
There are expiring stuff as well, missiles and the like. Rather than a costly safe disposal they get to do what they're designed for.
Sit around and wait to be used by other countries, in a progression of trades and transfers, until someone actually tries to fire it and figures out that one of the previous holders of the missile sold a few important bits on the sly?
