In March, Tokyo provided Ukraine with bulletproof vests and other SDF equipment at the request of Kyiv.

In Ukraine, where fighting with Russian forces is intensifying, young men have volunteered to join the military, and it appears that the SDF equipment has been supplied to such volunteer soldiers and others.

Bilyi, 30, volunteered for military service in late February, immediately after Russia began its invasion of his country, and received an SDF helmet at a military facility the following month. He is now serving on the front lines of combat in Kharkiv, where Russian troops have again ramped up their offensive. Bilyi said that he and his fellow soldiers have found the helmets useful as they wear the Japanese helmets in the trenches during artillery fire.
