    Agreements Approved: Strengthening Land Forces with New Combat Vehicles

    In a significant move to bolster the capabilities of the Polish Armed Forces, the Ministry of National Defence has greenlit three crucial contracts aimed at enhancing the Land Forces’ combat power. The contracts, which were officially approved today at the Ministry of National Defence headquarters in Warsaw, signal a renewed commitment to equipping the military with cutting-edge vehicles and technology.

    Revolutionizing Defense: Polish Army’s Acquisition of 700 Heavy Infantry Combat Vehicles

    The first among these transformative agreements focuses on the development of a Heavy Infantry Combat Vehicle (CBWP). Leveraging the proven technology possessed by the Polish Armament Group, the Polish Army is set to acquire 700 Heavy Infantry Combat Vehicles.

    Minister Błaszczak expressed, “We are dealing here with such a thought that goes beyond the framework, but this thought is carried out in such a way that in a short period of time, we will equip the army with a Heavy Infantry Combat Vehicle.”

    Elevating Armored Transportation: Poland’s Ambitious Wheeled Armoured Transporter Project

    The second agreement takes a step towards revolutionizing the field of armoured transportation. The New Wheeled Armoured Transporter contract addresses the limitations of the previous Wolverine transporters. By embarking on the development of an upgraded version, the Polish Army aims to create a versatile, exportable product that not only caters to domestic needs but also demonstrates global potential. The transporter, designed to complement and eventually replace the KTO Rosomak, guarantees a seamless equipment rotation, maintaining optimal combat readiness.

    Minister Błaszczak spoke optimistically about this endeavour, stating, “I am convinced that it will be a hit, an export hit. First of all, the needs of the Polish Army, but we are also trying to make these products exportable.”

    Enhancing Battlefield Advantage: Poland’s Strategic Move with 400 Light Reconnaissance Vehicles

    The third contract represents a critical investment in reconnaissance capabilities. The acquisition of 400 Light Reconnaissance Vehicles addresses the imperative lessons drawn from recent conflicts, notably the war in Ukraine. Swift reconnaissance actions have been underscored as pivotal for battlefield success. 

    Minister Błaszczak highlighted the significance of these reconnaissance vehicles, noting, “The war in Ukraine clearly demonstrated that strengthening reconnaissance capabilities translates into later successes on the battlefield.”

    Minister Błaszczak Highlights Strengthened Partnership with Polish Armament Group

    In addition to these groundbreaking contracts, Minister Błaszczak underscored the thriving collaboration with the Polish Armament Group. Recent agreements have not only addressed immediate military needs but have also driven the growth of the Polish armaments industry. Orders for modern armaments and equipment, including Infantry Fighting Vehicles and artillery sets, attest to the nation’s commitment to fostering self-reliance and contributing to NATO allies’ security.
