The U.S. does pay into NATO’s common budget, which covers shared military infrastructure, strategic assets, and command operations. So some U.S. money does go toward alliance-wide defense capabilities, not just U.S. operations.
One piece of the puzzle is that this is a way to get NATO to upgrade their weapons. Give the old ones to Ukraine and buy new ones. Patriots for example needed an upgrade to defeat new Russian weapons.
Except the United States funds NATO, and it is the largest financial contributor to the alliance.

But we gave the money to NATO
War is ghey
With an end user certificate I hope, so if they give them to the third party there will be consequences.
