There will be military ambulances, forensic ambulance, submarines and amphibian vehicles, torpedoes, radiolocation stations, rocket launchers, simulators and training systems, shooting ranges, Śnieżnik training and drill systems.

The military universities, educational centres, technical institutes and the Polish Space Agency will also make their presentations.  this is also the chance to become familiar with the engineering equipment, small arms, unmanned reconnaissance means, technical workshops, robots, aircraft and ship models, personal food rations and group food supplies as well as didactic equipment.

As usual, museums will present an interesting and compelling offer: Polish Army, Air Force, Land Forces museums will be there.  The B Expo Hall of the Kielce exhibition and congress centre  is the home for veteran associations, voluntary defence organizations and the Department of Military Health Service with their featured expo stands. More than 1,000 soldiers and army employees will work as a support and the implementation team for the Expo and the general public shows.

The Open Days will be complemented with the dynamic show-presentations, including: police dog training shows, shooting demonstrations, aikido and fitness demonstrations staged by operation crews.
