Lots of ammo on thus far the most effective systems. Ammo for HIMARS, ammo for the Patriot AA, artillery and mortar ammo, Stinger AA's, a bunch of infantry anti armor stuff(TOW's, Javelins, etc) and ammo for heli's(Hydra 70 rockets). The coolest relatively new gadget that I think a lot of people will be interested to see in use is the little hornet drones. Of Norweigan make originally, I'm super curious to see how it performs, how agile it is, what its battery life will be etc. They're little camera drones so hopefully they can manuever easily in the forests, maybe even scoping out enemy trenches. It also includes explosive mine clearing equipment, which I think everyone agrees is probably the most essential item needed NOW. And of course more night vision stuff, which is essential everywhere. The strykers will also be a good addition to the light APC fleet, a continual drip-feed of vehicles coming from Nato allies.

Solid package. Nothing groundbreaking, but more ammo and vehicles are always needed.

It's more than Ivan's getting, that's for sure. Wave those sticks boys, that'll scare the "nazis" /s
