It said the supplies would be from Czech defence companies and financed by the Danish budget.

The joint plan was first announced last month.

The Czech ministry detailed today that the first shipment would include nearly 50 infantry fighting vehicles and main battle tanks, 2,500 handguns, 7,000 rifles, 500 light machine guns, and 500 sniper rifles and equipment for electronic warfare and intelligence.

The supplies will include new and modernised equipment.

The ministry said last month that the first shipment would include 15 modernised T-72EA main battle tanks.

Further shipments will include 500 heavy machine guns, 280 recoilless guns, 7,000 anti-tank weapons, 10,000 hand grenades, 60 mortars, and a large number of anti-drone systems.

The funding agreement is similar to a deal reached last year with the Netherlands and the US. The ministry said last month that about half of an expected 90 tanks under that agreement were already delivered.
