Ask your the Unit you plan for what specifically will be issued to you, sometimes they reply with a list sometimes it's very vague. Remember, you can buy everything you need in country. If you forget something or didn't think of something, even in small cities there should be at least 2-3 military stores within walking distance of wherever you are. If you can put an stitch an airtag in each bag (lots of thievery in Ukraine). If you plan to be in Ukraine for the long run rent an apartment or even look into buying a dacha in a city that you frequent. A shitty apartment in some places can be as little as $100-200 a month. It's a place to fall back on if needed, and a great way to store all of your accumulated trinkets and extra gear. Also always if possible ALWAYS keep the hard case for optics, NVG's, ETC. Seen too many times where dudes trash their $1000 optics because of carelessness.

I also was wondering what guns are issued in Ukraine if u didn’t bring your own weapon
@AlexanderMachiavelliАй бұрын
You cannot bring ur own weapon at all. And depends where u end up but of course AK's, 74 and 47's. M4's HK's, FALs, AR15's, Grots etc.

@AlexanderMachiavelli is it an actual building or vehicles that follow you? if it's a building do you have to travel back there every time you need to pick something from there?

Hey man! I know you said there’s all types of plates in Ukraine but it’s kind of hard to come by small lvl 4 ceramics (8.75”x 11.75”). Do you know if they have any of those there I’m thinking about buying them before I head over.

Buy your body armor beforehand. Make sure its level 4. Take the label off before you board your flight, sometimes guards in Poland will not let you pass if its level 4.

What kinda question is that? It’s common because it’s fucking armor. You’d probably want that if being shot at is likely.
