List of military aid to Ukraine during the Russo-Ukrainian War
This is a list of known military aid that has been provided or promised to Ukraine during the Russo-Ukrainian War, particularly since the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine. This list includes delivered equipment, training, intelligence, treatment of soldiers, logistical support as well as financial support to the Ukrainian government unless earmarked for humanitarian purposes. Weapons donated as a result of cooperation between multiple countries are listed separately in each country category.
As of March 2024, nations—mostly, Western governments—have since January 2022 pledged more than $380 billion in aid to Ukraine, including nearly $118 billion in direct military aid from individual countries.[1]
The aid has mostly been co-ordinated through the Ukraine Defense Contact Group, whose 57 member countries include all 32 member states of NATO. The European Union and its members have provided the most aid in total (military, financial and humanitarian), while the United States has by far provided the most military aid.[2][3]
The war has led some donor countries, such as Germany and Sweden, to reverse past policies against providing offensive military aid. The European Union, for the first time in its history, supplied weapons through its institutions.[4][5][6]
The United States and other donor countries have hesitated to provide or have imposed limits on the use of some advanced weapons—typically, forbidding Ukraine to use them to strike targets inside Russian territory, a bid to ward off the war's escalation.[7] Since June 2024, they have lifted some of these restrictions, allowing Ukraine to strike Russian military targets near the border in self-defense.[8]
The Russian government has condemned the supply of military aid to Ukraine. Russia's president Vladimir Putin said that if military aid stopped, Ukraine would not survive for long.[9] In December 2023, the Center for Strategic and International Studies wrote that if the United States stopped sending military aid, European countries would be unable to provide enough to prevent Ukraine's frontline from collapsing.[10]
Donors
The donation of military aid was coordinated at monthly meetings in the Ukraine Defense Contact Group throughout the war. A first meeting took place between 41 countries on 26 April 2022, and the coalition comprised 54 countries (all 30 member states of NATO and 24 other countries) at the latest meeting on 14 February 2023.[11] All EU member states donated military aid collectively via EU institutions; all but three (Hungary, Cyprus and Malta) also donated individually as sovereign countries.
As of February 2023, military aid was donated by EU institutions, 45 sovereign countries, companies, and other parties.
The United States alone pledged about $45 billion in arms and military aid to Ukraine between Russia's fullscale invasion in February 2022 and October 2023[12] and a total surpassing $174 billion by September 2024.[13]

Czech Republic | On the first day of full-scale invasion, the Czech Republic presented the Ukrainian ambassador in Prague with a detailed "10 cm thick folder" listing weapons that were ready for immediate transfer.[115] The first trainload of military aid was delivered to Ukraine already on 27 February 2022.[116] The Czech Republic later also became the first country to send heavy military equipment in April 2022 (including 38 T-72 tanks from army's deep storage), and afterwards, again, the first country to send combat aircraft (4 modern Mil Mi-24V from Czech Air Force's operational stock). As of beginning of February 2023, the Czech Republic donated equipment worth CZK 10 billion (~ €420 million) from Czech Army stock or purchased from private Czech companies.[117] During the first year after the full scale Russian invasion, Czech arms companies delivered to Ukraine military equipment worth CZK 30 billion (~ €1,27 billion), either through direct purchase by Ukraine or by other countries supporting Ukraine.[117] By February 2024, the Czech Republic approved commercial military exports to Ukraine worth CZK 130 billion (~ €5,13 billion).[118] 676 pieces of heavy equipment were delivered from the Czech Republic to Ukraine by July 2023,[119] and this number rose to 834 by mid-April 2024[120] and 918 by end of May 2024[121] Historically, Russia had been trying to disrupt Czech deliveries of weapons to Ukraine, most prominently by the GRU's 2014 Vrbětice ammunition warehouses explosions.
