Creates a new US-Israel defense partnership to speed up technology sharing and boost military readiness.
This bill would create a new initiative to boost defense technology sharing between the United States and Israel. It would bring together government, industry, and universities to develop and integrate advanced military technologies faster. This aims to strengthen both countries' security and improve US military systems.
Today, the United States and Israel have a defense partnership and cooperative programs, but there isn't a formal initiative specifically designed to accelerate defense technology research and integration. If this bill becomes law, it would create the United States-Israel Defense Technology Cooperation Initiative, setting aside $150 million each year for three years (2027-2029) to speed up joint development of advanced military technologies. This would lead to more rapid integration of new defense tools into US military systems and more partnerships between US and Israeli defense companies.
