Want to point out the Strykers. Not sure about the qty here, but always nice to see solid IFVs getting sent over. Seems to be the best land vehicle in this war in which nobody has air supremacy.

Edit:

Looks like 211 Strykers! Based on the difference in announced quantity from Oct 21st to Nov 1st.
