I wouldn't say that it's a massive package, but it's part of a steady stream support. However as you say, it is hard rival the US military complex in size.

As someone already mentioned the Iris-T SLM system and radars are probably the highlight. Air defense is always needed and this is a modern system. Ukraine already got 2 of them before and presumably this is a newly produced one. So in this regard we really are limited by supply.
