List of equipment of the National Guard of Ukraine

The National Guard of Ukraine went through three stages in its evolution into the entity we see today. This is reflected in the type of weaponry used: from that of a standing army inherited from the first National Guard (1991–2000), to SWAT type weapons during its role as an internal police (2000–2014), to back to a military force that is armed lighter than the army but also can respond faster.
