There are also direct money transfers and guarantees for loans and other financial instruments.

As for mothballed weapons, it’s often cheaper to deliver them to Ukraine than to dispose of them.

That, along with Russia not congratulating Trump are the only things giving me some hope Trump might pivot with the right push. "We made an amazing deal, Ukraine will cheaply dispose of our old weapons and punish those filthy ungrateful Russians" would be very much on brand for Trump if you insert a bunch of rambling in the middle.
