2S22 Bohdana

Artillery

Ukraine's domestically produced NATO-calibre howitzer — the symbol of its wartime artillery industry.

Origin
Ukraine
Relevant to

CAESAR

Artillery

The French wheeled 155 mm howitzer — shoot-and-scoot survivability that kept it in the counter-battery fight where towed guns could not live.

Origin
France
Relevant to

The ubiquitous Soviet 122mm towed howitzer — simple, cheap and exported everywhere; the baseline of tube artillery in most armies that field it.

Origin
Soviet Union
Relevant to

BM-21 Grad

Rocket artillery

Truck-mounted rocket artillery in small numbers — area fires with all the accuracy problems that implies in a war among civilians.

M142 HIMARS

Rocket artillery

Precision deep-strike rocket artillery that reshaped Russian logistics in 2022.

Origin
United States
Relevant to

M142 HIMARS (Taiwan)

Rocket artillery

The wheeled rocket launcher that gave Taiwan a mobile long-range fires capability it did not previously have — and the clearest single measure of whether US arms transfers are actually arriving.

Origin
United States
Relevant to
Taiwan Strait

The Indian rocket artillery system Armenia bought in its first post-2020 arms package from Delhi — the counter-battery and deep-fires capability the 2020 war showed the army lacked, sourced from a supplier chosen for not being Russia.

Origin
India
Relevant to
Caucasus

Akash

Air defence

The Indian medium-range air-defence system that is the first foreign export of the type and the clearest single object of Armenia's post-2020 supplier realignment — a replacement for the Russian layer the drones destroyed, bought from a country that had never sold Armenia anything before 2020.

Origin
India
Relevant to
Caucasus

Barak-8

Air defence

The Israeli medium-range air-defence system that modernised Azerbaijan's ground-based defence in the years before 2020 — the layer that, together with the S-300, meant Armenia's small air arm played almost no part in the war.

Origin
Israel, India
Relevant to
Caucasus

Bavar-373

Air defence

Iran's domestically built long-range air-defence system — developed after the S-300 sale was frozen in 2010 and fielded beside the S-300PMU-2 that eventually arrived, and the clearest statement of the Air Defence Force's claim to self-sufficiency.

Origin
Iran
Relevant to
Iran–Gulf

IRIS-T SLM / SLS

Air defence

The German-supplied medium-range layer — the system Ukraine relies on against cruise missiles, sitting between cheap counter-drone defences and the scarce anti-ballistic tier.

Origin
Germany
Relevant to
Ukraine–Russia

The three-tier shield — Iron Dome against rockets and drones, David's Sling against medium-range threats, Arrow against ballistic missiles in and beyond the atmosphere — that engaged the Iranian retaliation of both wars, and the most tested multi-layer missile defence in the world.

Origin
Israel, United States
Relevant to
Iran–Gulf

MIM-104 Patriot

Air defence

The upper tier of Ukraine's air defence — the system publicly credited with its routine ballistic-missile intercepts over the cities.

Origin
United States
Relevant to
Ukraine–Russia · Iran–Gulf

NASAMS

Air defence

The other half of Ukraine's medium-range layer — a ground-launched system firing air-to-air missiles, used against cruise missiles and drones rather than against ballistic threats.

Origin
Norway, United States
Relevant to
Ukraine–Russia

The upper layer of Taiwan's air and missile defence, and a central component of the integrated air-defence programme the 2026 special budget was written to fund.

Origin
United States
Relevant to
Taiwan Strait

The Soviet long-range SAM that anchored Armenian air defence — and whose documented destruction by drones in 2020 became the era's defining image of legacy air defence meeting the loitering-munition age.

Origin
Soviet Union / Russia
Relevant to
Caucasus · Iran–Gulf
Historical / withdrawnFull record →

S-400 Triumf

Air defence

Russia's premier strategic air-defence system — documented defending Crimea and the border regions throughout the war, and a priority target for Ukrainian deep strikes.

Origin
Russia
Relevant to
Ukraine–Russia · Syria

The phased-array radar that gives Taiwan its ballistic-missile warning — the origin of every published figure for how many minutes the island would have.

Origin
United States
Relevant to
Taiwan Strait

THAAD

Air defence

The upper tier of the Gulf's missile defence — the American system that intercepts ballistic missiles in their terminal phase at altitudes Patriot cannot reach, first used in combat by the Emirates in 2022 and deployed across the region as the 2026 war made the layer necessary.

Origin
United States
Relevant to
Iran–Gulf

Taiwan's indigenous surface-to-air missile family — the domestically controlled element of its layered air defence, and the core of the integrated air-defence concept publicised as "T-Dome".

Origin
Taiwan
Relevant to
Taiwan Strait

Tor-M2 family

Air defence

The Russian short-range air-defence system that is the Ground Forces' standard point-defence layer in the war against Ukraine — and, in Armenian service, the survivable layer of the country's air defence: bought before 2020, credited with some of the few Armenian drone intercepts of the war, and retained under the post-war rebuild alongside the Indian and French systems bought to replace what was lost.

Origin
Russia
Relevant to
Ukraine–Russia · Caucasus

ZU-23-2

Air defence

Twin 23mm cannon — nominally anti-air, in practice the heaviest direct-fire weapon on both sides’ gun trucks.

Origin
Soviet Union
Relevant to
Sahel

Cessna 208 Caravan (ISR)

AEW&C / ISR aircraft

US-donated light surveillance aircraft from the pre-coup partnership era; current serviceability unclear.

Origin
United States
Relevant to
Sahel
Status uncertainFull record →

Taiwan's airborne radar picket — a handful of aircraft carrying the only sensor that can see beyond the island's horizon, and therefore a capability whose small number is itself the analytical point.

Origin
United States
Relevant to
Taiwan Strait

The PLA's standard airborne radar aircraft — the thing that makes a package of fighters into a system, and the aircraft type whose presence changes what a day's activity around Taiwan actually means.

Origin
China
Relevant to
Taiwan Strait

Dassault Rafale

Combat aircraft

The French fighter through which Qatar and the Emirates diversified away from American types — and, in the Emirati case, the largest single export order the aircraft has had.

Origin
France
Relevant to
Iran–Gulf

Eurofighter Typhoon

Combat aircraft

The European fighter that four Gulf air forces chose as their second supplier — the political hedge, in aircraft form, against dependence on a single ally.

Origin
United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Spain
Relevant to
Iran–Gulf

The heavy American fighter that is the common thread of the region's most capable air forces — the Saudi F-15SA, the Qatari F-15QA and the Israeli F-15I — and the type most associated with strike at the ranges this system is fought across.

Origin
United States
Relevant to
Iran–Gulf

F-16AM/BM

Combat aircraft

Ukraine's first Western fighter — an air-defence workhorse and integration milestone rather than the silver bullet once advertised.

Origin
United States
Relevant to
Ukraine–Russia · Iran–Gulf · Syria

Taiwan's principal fighter and the aircraft most often meeting reported PLA activity — significant here as the visible instrument of a daily attrition problem, not as a war-winning capability.

Origin
United States
Relevant to
Taiwan Strait

F-35I Adir

Combat aircraft

Israel's stealth fighter, modified to an Israeli specification — the aircraft most associated in reporting with the deep strikes on Iran in 2024, 2025 and 2026, and with the December 2024 campaign that destroyed most of Syria's air defences and aircraft in days.

Origin
United States, Israel
Relevant to
Iran–Gulf · Syria

H-6 bomber family

Combat aircraft

A modernised bomber lineage used principally as a missile carrier — and one of the most politically legible aircraft in the theatre, because its appearance on a flight is itself a signal.

Origin
China
Relevant to
Taiwan Strait

Taiwan's domestically developed fighter — militarily a capable second-tier type, and historically significant as the product of an arms embargo that forced self-reliance.

Origin
Taiwan
Relevant to
Taiwan Strait

The fighter force the Shah bought and the revolution kept — F-14s, F-4s and F-5s flying half a century on, with Soviet types added and a domestic reverse-engineering industry behind them — recorded as one capability because its analytical meaning is the whole fleet's obsolescence, not any type's characteristics.

Origin
United States, Soviet Union / Russia, Iran
Relevant to
Iran–Gulf

J-16

Combat aircraft

A heavy multirole fighter, and the type most frequently named in Taiwanese reporting of aircraft detected around the island — the workhorse of the routine pressure activity.

Origin
China
Relevant to
Taiwan Strait

J-20

Combat aircraft

China's low-observable fighter — significant less for any single engagement than for what its production rate says about the trajectory of the regional air balance.

Origin
China
Relevant to

L-39 Albatros

Combat aircraft

Jet trainers pressed into light-attack service, part of the 2022 Russian delivery packages.

Origin

Historical / withdrawnFull record →

Mirage 2000-5

Combat aircraft

Origin
France
Relevant to

Ukraine–Russia · Sahel · Caucasus

Su-34

Combat aircraft

The workhorse of the Russian glide-bomb campaign.

Origin
Russia
Relevant to
Ukraine–Russia · Syria

Sukhoi Su-30SM

Combat aircraft

The Russian multirole fighter that is a mainstay of the Aerospace Forces' war against Ukraine — and, in a fleet of four, the only modern fighter Armenia has ever operated, bought in 2019 and by published accounts unused in the 2020 war for want of the missiles to arm it, now the subject of an Indian-assisted upgrade discussion that says more about Armenia's supplier realignment than about the aircraft.

Origin

Ka-52 Alligator

Helicopter

Russia's premier attack helicopter — from the Hostomel air assault to the standoff tank-killing screen that blunted the 2023 counteroffensive.

Origin
Soviet Union / Russia
Relevant to

Y-20

Transport / tanker aircraft

A large transport and tanker aircraft — unglamorous, and among the more meaningful indicators in the theatre, because reach depends on refuelling and airlift far more than on fighters.

Origin
China

Taiwan Strait

Magura V5

Uncrewed maritime system

The naval strike drone credited with driving the Black Sea Fleet from the northwestern Black Sea.

Origin

Orlan-10 / Orlan-30

Reconnaissance UAV

The eyes of Russian artillery — the war's most ubiquitous reconnaissance drone, produced and expended in the thousands.

Origin

The uncrewed aircraft that circle Taiwan and appear by type in its daily detection reports — the cheapest way to sustain pressure, and the one a fighter scramble answers least well.

Origin
China
Relevant to

Origin
Israel
Relevant to
Caucasus
Documented in conflictFull record →

ZALA Lancet family

Strike UAV / loitering munition

Russia's counter-battery loitering munition of choice — the standing threat to any gun, radar or air-defence vehicle within tens of kilometres of the front.

Origin
Russia
Relevant to
Ukraine–Russia

The American destroyer that is the Gulf's actual missile-defence-at-sea — the Aegis ships that have intercepted Houthi missiles and drones in the Red Sea since 2023 and Iranian ballistic missiles fired at Israel, and the vessels behind the naval interdiction of Iranian exports in 2026.

Origin
United States
Relevant to
Iran–Gulf

The largest coast guard vessels in the world — and arguably the most strategically effective platforms in this entire module, precisely because they are not warships.

Origin
China
Relevant to
Taiwan Strait

Iran's domestically built midget submarines of North Korean lineage — small, numerous, shallow-water boats designed for the strait itself rather than for the open sea, and the underwater counterpart of the Guard Navy's small-craft mass.

Origin
Iran, North Korea
Relevant to
Iran–Gulf

The hundreds of fast, small, missile- and rocket-armed craft that are the Guard Navy's method — swarming boats built for a narrow, shallow, crowded sea in which mass and dispersion matter more than tonnage, and the vessels behind every tanker seizure and harassment incident reported in the Gulf.

Origin
Iran, Sweden, United Kingdom, North Korea
Relevant to
Iran–Gulf

The three Russian-built boats acquired in the 1990s — the only conventional submarines of consequence in the Gulf's littoral states, and the Artesh Navy's most survivable and least visible asset, whose condition after three decades and two wars is not established.

Origin
Russia
Relevant to
Iran–Gulf

Small purpose-built minelayers — the Republic of China Navy's first, and the most literal expression of a denial strategy in the whole Taiwanese inventory.

Origin
Taiwan
Relevant to
Taiwan Strait

The domestically built light frigates that carry the Artesh Navy's outward-facing role — the ships that make its long-range deployments and naval diplomacy possible — and the class most concerned by United States claims in March 2026 to have destroyed much of Iran's regular surface fleet.

Origin

Documented in conflictFull record →

A small, fast, heavily armed catamaran corvette — the physical expression of Taiwan's shift from a few large warships toward many small ones.

Origin
Taiwan
Relevant to
Taiwan Strait

The PLA Navy's general-purpose frigate, and the class that does most of the routine work around Taiwan — the ordinary ship, which is why it matters more than the impressive ones.

Origin
China
Relevant to
Taiwan Strait

Type 055 destroyer

Naval vessel

China's largest and most capable surface combatant — significant primarily as evidence of shipbuilding capacity, which is the more consequential fact.

Origin
China
Relevant to
Taiwan Strait

The PLA Navy's amphibious workhorse — less discussed than the big assault ships and considerably more relevant to how amphibious lift actually works.

Origin
China
Relevant to
Taiwan Strait

Interceptor drones (counter-Shahed)

Electronic warfare / counter-UAS

Cheap propeller-driven drones built to destroy other drones — the layer that let Ukraine answer mass with mass instead of spending scarce missiles on cheap targets.

Origin
Ukraine
Relevant to
Ukraine–Russia

IED / explosive-remnant threat (Syria)

IED / explosive threat · capability record

The explosive threat that outlives the war twice over: remnant ISIS cells' roadside and vehicle-borne devices in the east, and fourteen years of mines and unexploded ordnance contaminating return areas nationwide — among the world's worst casualty environments for civilians, per demining organisations.

Origin
Various (improvised)

Origin
Improvised (in-theatre)
Relevant to

Iranian naval mining capability

IED / explosive threat · capability record

The capability most discussed and least used in the Gulf: a stock of naval mines, estimated in the low thousands in published assessments that disagree widely, and the small craft and submarines to lay them — a threat that has shaped the strait's insurance and routing for four decades without once closing it.

Origin
Iran, Soviet Union / Russia, China
Relevant to
Iran–Gulf

9K720 Iskander-M / K

Missile / precision strike

The workhorse short-range ballistic missile of the strike campaign — and the hardest routine target Ukraine's air defences face.

Origin
Russia
Relevant to
Ukraine–Russia · Caucasus

Harpoon coastal defence system

Missile / precision strike

A large US coastal-defence missile order that became the test case for whether American arms actually arrive on schedule — the supply-chain question at the centre of the alliance-credibility file.

Origin
United States
Relevant to

Hsiung Feng anti-ship missile family

Missile / precision strike

Taiwan's indigenous anti-ship missile family — the clearest expression of a sea-denial strategy, and the capability class most consistently recommended by advocates of asymmetric defence.

Origin
Taiwan
Relevant to
Taiwan Strait

Iranian anti-ship missile families

Missile / precision strike

The shore- and craft-launched anti-ship missiles — Chinese C-802 derivatives produced domestically, joined by an anti-ship ballistic missile — that give Iran's coast a reach across the whole strait, and whose Houthi derivatives have been fired at merchant ships in the Red Sea.

Origin
China, Iran
Relevant to
Iran–Gulf

The medium-range families — liquid-fuel descendants of the North Korean Nodong and Iran's own solid-fuel designs — that give the Aerospace Force reach to Israel and to every Gulf state, and whose numbers and accuracy are the most contested figures in the module.

Origin
Iran
Relevant to
Iran–Gulf

The solid-fuel short-range families that account for most of what Iran fires — road-mobile, quick to launch, and improved generation by generation from a 2000s rocket into precision-guided missiles with ranges published in the hundreds of kilometres.

Origin
Iran
Relevant to
Iran–Gulf

LORA

Missile / precision strike

The Israeli quasi-ballistic missile that gave Azerbaijan a precision deep-strike capability in 2020 — used, on Baku's own footage, against the bridge on the Armenian supply route into Karabakh — and the other half, with the drones, of the Israeli contribution to the 2020 outcome.
