Thousands of frontline Ukrainian troops are now using weapons and other equipment supplied by the UK.
The government says it is spending £1.3bn ($1.6bn) on military support for Ukraine.
So what exactly is being sent, and how much of a difference is it making?
Anti-tank weapons
The UK has sent more than 5,000 next generation light anti-tank weapons, or Nlaw, to Ukraine.
Nlaws are designed to destroy tanks at short range with a single shot.
Crucially for Ukraine’s armed forces who need weapons immediately, the missiles are easy to transport and simple to use. A soldier can be trained to use them in less than a day.https://emp.bbc.com/emp/SMPj/2.44.15/iframe.htmlMedia caption, Nlaw anti-tank missile used by Ukrainian forces
Many analysts believe they have already had a major impact on the course of the conflict.
“Nlaw was absolutely critical to the defeat of Russian ground thrusts in the early stages of the war,” says Justin Bronk, of the Royal United Services Institute.
The weapons have been “particularly effective” when used in combination with artillery, he says.
He points to successful strikes on tank columns, where Nlaws have destroyed the front vehicles, trapping those to the rear for targeting with artillery.
