Israel faces backlogs of $10 billion on US arms orders that come after 2028, complicating Trump's plans to cut off military aid.

Netanyahu has proposed phasing out direct American aid over the next decade, while lawmakers consider moving to joint production of military equipment. A sudden interruption in supply is unlikely.
