BELFAST — Switzerland is deliberating over whether to cancel a long-delayed Patriot air defense system order, while saying that it will extend a payment freeze for the in-demand platform unless the US communicates a firm timeline for deliveries — the latest development in a high-dollar diplomatic spat between the two countries.

Last July Washington decided to reshuffle Switzerland’s Patriot deliveries to support urgently needed supplies to Ukraine, with Breaking Defense reporting earlier this month that Swiss delays could run up to five years. Even that window is in doubt however, likely because demand for the platform has grown markedly since the outbreak of the US-Israeli war with Iran. On Tuesday, Poland reportedly turned down an informal US request to send its Patriots to the Middle East.

The Swiss government says the Patriot order is linked to other Foreign Military Sale agreements, like a $7.5 billion order for F-35A fighter jets as well as spare parts for Swiss F/A-18 fighters. Bern says the US has pulled Swiss payments for those programs to fund Patriot production, which the European government warned risked timely delivery for the aircraft as well.
