Poland already has 4 AW101s in the Navy, with an option for 4 more.
32 AW-149s have been ordered for the Army.
There’s 8 S-70i Blackhawks that are operated by the GROM Special Forces.
I believe 22-32 more Blackhawks were also being negotiated for the Army.
Of course there is also 98 Apache-E Guardians, the first pilots are now going to the US to train on those and the US will lease 8 to Poland from next year as a stop-gap whilst the order is fulfilled.
The AW-149s and Blackhawks will be kitted out with Hellfires for an Air Calvary role, a large order has been placed for those missiles.
Berlin getting nervous?
Seriously though, it’s clear that bordering Russia is hazardous and so it’s understandable that such a procurement is occurring.
Poland’s buildout and modernization of their military is next level, top tier, “what the fuck are you looking at, Putin?” shit and bless them for it. They’re doing god’s work.
