120mm Self Propelled Mortar     Finland

  Czech Republic

120 mm remote-controlled mortar 74 Expected to be ordered 2031–2035, with current contenders being Rak, Amos and Nemo. These three mortars would be adapted to fit on the Pandur chassis.[161][162][75]
Military engineering vehicle     Australia  Czech Republic Route clearance version
Explosive Ordnance Disposal version
Combat engineering version
50 Planned ordering of up to 82 MRAPs for the Czech Army has been established in the KVAČR 2035, the most likely candidate is the Australian Bushmaster MRAP however, Czech MOD may choose the TITUS instead because of the established home production and due to the fact of it already being present within the Czech Army.[163]
Embraer Phenom 300     Brazil VIP Transport 2 Negotiated together with purchase of C-390. Delivery expected in 2025–26.[164]
CH-47     United States Heavy lift helicopter 6 The Czech Government has defined the need to replace the Mi-17. It has been established that the Czech Republic is expecting to begin the acquisition process for 6 heavy-lift helicopters. While the specific type is not known, it is predicted that it will be the Chinook. Currently the order is expected in 2030–2035.[165][75]
AH-1Z Viper     United States Attack helicopter +12 Slovakia was offered 12 heavily discounted AH-1Z Viper helicopters by the US Government.[166] However, after elections, new Slovak Government stated that they might forgo on the offer.[167] Czech Army stated interest in taking over this order in case Slovakia declines to accept the helicopters.[168]
UH-1Y     United States Utility helicopter +6 Possibility of ordering 6 transport helis has been established in KVACR 2035. These will most likely be UH-1Y Venoms.[165] Other potential options include the NH90 and the AW101, though very unlikely.
