The Biden administration is contemplating sending military advisers and equipment including weapons to Ukraine as Russia builds up forces near the border.
US officials are also working with allies regarding another possible Russian invasion.
The dialogues about the proposed lethal aid package are underway as Ukraine has started to publicly apprise that an invasion could happen as soon as January.
As tension rise, a particular US-made weapon that is already in the hands of Ukrainian Ground Forces is in focus - it's the FGM-148 Javelin Anti Tank Missile.
Retired Lt. Col. Cedric Leighton told CNN that Javelin Anti Tank missiles "are quite effective against the T-80 tanks which the Russians are actually employing in these efforts against Ukraine right now."
In this video Defense Updates analyzes how American made Javelin could lay waste to Russian armored forces?
