EU MODEX "LOT 2" is designed for a diverse range of modules:

Exercises 1, 3, and 6 will involve High Capacity Pumping Modules (HCP), Water Purification teams (WP), Flood Rescue Boats (FRB), Flood Containment units (FC), and other relevant capacities.
Exercises 2 and 5 will involve ground forest firefighting and aerial forest firefighting capacities.
Exercise 4 is specifically designed for CBRN (chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear) capacities.

Additionally, a range of other response capacities such as drone operators, fire analysis teams, and temporary shelter might also participate.

The EU Civil Protection Team (EUCPT) and Technical Assistance and Support Team (TAST) will be exercised in the LOT2 EU MODEX exercises.
