Artillery support has been bolstered with four additional Zuzana 2 self-propelled howitzers, 50,000 rounds of 155mm ammunition (total now 422,000), and 2,000 rounds of 122mm ammunition (total now 21,000).

The drone capabilities delivered to Ukraine have been substantially increased with 300 additional HF-1 strike drones, 51 VECTOR reconnaissance drones with spare parts, 245 RQ-35 HEIDRUN reconnaissance drones, 29 SONGBIRD reconnaissance drones, and 14 HORNET XR reconnaissance drones.

Other military equipment in the package includes two WISENT 1 mine clearing tanks, 16 mine plows, eight border protection vehicles, and 645 laser rangefinders. In addition, a substantial number of small arms and ammunition were delivered.
