The US is already sending a large amount of military material to Ukraine and if it sent something more forceful to pressure Russia, what Russia would do is send long-range missiles to Iran and then what? Do you keep climbing waiting for someone to do the chicken before you get to the nuclear thing?
and? What does that change? It does not invalidate my previous point at all, there is already American material on the ground and American aid to Ukraine (it does not matter who pays for it in this case), it is normal for Russia to do the same with Iran (help that you also do not know if Iran pays like Ukraine does) and increasing it will only make Russia increase its aid to Iran, what do you gain from that and where do you set the limit?
On the original issue of the shipment, the US recognizing that Russia provides intelligence support to Iran is not going to change anything or benefit anyone in any way. Apart from the fact that if the US does/did it with Ukraine, with what argument are they going to even ask Russia to stop doing it?

No it isn’t. Trump stopped all new aid.
Only what Europe paid for is being sent.
