On October 7, 2023, hours after the start of the Gaza war, the United States started sending warships and warplanes into the region, prepared to give Israel whatever it needs. Israel asked the United States for Iron Dome interceptors, and President Joe Biden said Washington would quickly provide additional equipment and resources, including ammunition, which are going to reach Israel within days. US Secretary of State Antony Blinken said Washington would provide its "full support" to Israel, with guided missile launchers and F-35 fighter jets among the equipment being sent. On October 12, Biden administration started preparing an aid package of about $2 billion in additional funding to support Israel. On October 14, the Pentagon had dispatched a small team of Special Operations personnel to Israel for intelligence gathering. On October 15, the White House declared that it would attempt to get congressional approval of a fresh $2 billion weaponry aid package for Israel and Ukraine. By October 17, five shipments of American weapons and equipment had arrived in Israel. On October 20, Biden announced that the additional funds he asked Congress to authorize would come to a total of $14 billion, as part of a $105 billion military aid package that addressed Ukraine, Taiwan and Israel as well as US border security.

In November, a Republican plan was approved by the United States House of Representatives that allocated $14.5 billion in military aid for Israel.

By December US had supplied 15,000 bombs and 57,000 155mm artillery shells, mostly carried on C-17 military cargo planes. U.S. has also sent more than 5,000 unguided Mk82 bombs, more than 5,400 Mk84 bombs, about 1,000 small diameter GBU-39 bombs. On December 8, Biden used emergency authority to skip congressional review to sell ~14,000 tank shells worth $106.5 million for immediate delivery to Israel. On December 29, the United States government again used emergency authority to sell Israel artillery shells and related weapons worth 147.5 million dollars in order to replenish Israeli weapons stockpiles.

In February the Senate passed a $14 billion USD aid package for Israel.

By March US had approved more than 100 arms sales to Israel.[53] Unnamed officials stated in March 2024 that the U.S. had signed off on an additional 1,800 MK84 2,000-pound bombs and 500 MK82 500-pound bombs. On 30 March, the White House authorized $2.5 billion in weapons transfers to Israel.

In April, Biden signed a $95bn security package which included around $17bn in military aid for Israel.

On 16 May, Biden notified Congress about a $1 billion arms sale to Israel. On 21 May, the U.S. House passed legislation that would slash the U.S. military budget unless Biden sent 3,500 heavy-duty bombs to Israel.

In June, the United States officially signed a Letter of Offer and Acceptance, allowing Israel to purchase 25 additional F-35 stealth fighter jets for $3 billion dollars. Also in June, Rep. Gregory Meeks and Sen. Ben Cardin signed off to an arms sale to Israel totaling $18 billion, after pressure from the Biden administration. In June 2024, two U.S. officials stated the United States had transferred ten thousand 2,000-pound bombs and thousands of Hellfire missiles to Israel since 7 October.

In July 2024, United States resumed shipments of the 500-pound bombs, which were halted in February over concerns about the humanitarian impact of Israel's use of them in killing Palestinians in Gaza.

On 9 August 2024, the Department of State said the United States would send Israel an additional $3.5 billion to spend on US-made weapons and military equipment. On 13 August 2024, the Department of State announced that the U.S. had approved a $20 billion weapons package sale to Israel, which included F-15 fighter jets and advanced air-to-air missiles.

In September 2024, the United States approved a $165 million sale of military tank trailers, including replacement parts, tool kits, and logistics support.

On 28 February 2025, President Trump approved a $3 billion arms sale to Israel, which included 35,500 MK 84 and BLU-117 bombs and 4,000 Predator warheads.
