Sweden has authorized the purchase the U.S. M142 HIMARS, with the deal reported at approximately $729 million. The decision follows a U.S. State Department approval in March for a potential $930 million Foreign Military Sale to Sweden covering up to 20 HIMARS launchers, GMLRS and Extended-Range GMLRS ammunition, and 20 ATACMS pods. The March approval was authorization for a potential sale, not a completed Swedish purchase. Sweden's decision now moves the procurement forward. The final number of launchers and ammunition being purchased by Sweden appears to be smaller than the maximum package approved by the United States. The exact composition of the final order has not yet been fully disclosed. HIMARS will give Sweden a long-range precision fires capability it currently does not have, complementing its existing Archer artillery systems.

Naturalized U.S. Army veteran admits selling Bradley, Stryker, and HIMARS secrets to buyers in China On September 16, 2026, Ruoyu Duan, 41, of Hillsboro, Oregon, pleaded guilty in Portland federal court to conspiracy to gather and transmit national defense information. Sentencing is set for December 10. He faces up to 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. This is not a green-card gray area. Duan served in the U.S. Army from 2013 to 2017, was trained to handle sensitive and classified material, and became a U.S. citizen through the now-defunct MAVNI program, which fast-tracked foreign recruits with special skills into citizenship after military service. He was medically discharged after an on-duty injury and was collecting VA disability at the time of his arrest. Prosecutors say that from November 2021 until his arrest in March 2025, Duan acted as a middleman. He paid active-duty soldiers—including Capt. Li Tian and Sgt. Jian Zhao at Joint Base Lewis-McChord—to collect Army operational material: technical manuals, training files, intelligence reports, computers, and hard drives marked Secret and Top Secret. The haul included data on Bradley and Stryker combat vehicles and the HIMARS rocket system. He then passed it to people in China and moved the money. Tian and Zhao have not pleaded guilty. FBI agents arrested Duan at his home on March 6, 2025, and seized devices containing files matching reports Tian had sent him. A U.S. passport and an Army uniform are not a license to sell the country’s weapons data. Duan already admitted the conspiracy. Watch the December sentence.

🇵🇱 To mark Armed Forces Day, Poland just held its largest military parade in history, putting more than 300 military vehicles, 60 aircraft, and 20 naval vessels on display. Abrams, K2 and Leopard tanks rolled through Warsaw alongside HIMARS and Patriot systems, while F-35s joined the air display as Poland showcased one of Europe's fastest military buildups. The message from PM Tusk was simple: “Only the strong will avoid war.” Poland knows a thing or two about being invaded; over the past 100 years it's spent 51 of them under direct foreign occupation or outright loss of independence, and another 44 years as a Soviet-dominated satellite state. Tusk is hoping Putin's watching the display. Writers: Mhedi, Ian
