Intel Killer LAN/WiFi drivers does not support Windows Server 2025

[rhinjard]

I recently bought a system with MSI MAG B860 Tomahawk Wifi mother board (Link). It has Killer LAN and WiFi/BT. I have downloaded latest available Killer Performance Suite from the Intel website but when I try to install it in Windows Server 2025 LTSC, the installation aborted with the message that the OS is not supported. Is there any way I can download/install the network drivers in Windows Server 2025 LTSC?
