Project
Delayed

Switzerland ordered the US Patriot air defense system with deliveries initially scheduled to start in 2026. Due to supply bottlenecks, delivery is delayed by four to five years. Switzerland imposed a payment freeze in autumn 2025 due to these delays, but the USA circumvented this by diverting Swiss payments for F-35 fighter jets to the Patriot system account.
