T
he Narew air defense program has
been one of the key elements of the
PGZ's activities. Once the agreement
on delivery of the first elements of the
system was signed, the process regarding the
initial components was finalized within a mere
6 months. Agreement on strategic cooperation
within the framework of the Miecznik vessel
program was of paramount relevance as well.
The war in Ukraine and the successful use of
the Piorun MANPADS there elevated the sys-
tem to the status of an export hit. Further el-
ements of the Regina squadron-level artillery
modules would be meanwhile received by the
Polish Armed Forces, along with the ZSSW-30
RCWS (some destined to be implemented on
the upgraded Rosomak APCs, some expected
to be used on the new Borsuk IFV), MLRS plat-
forms, rifles, assault rifles, and several other
products manufactured by the PGZ Group's
companies.
Tightening the ties with the Korean defense in-
dustry has also been a relevant step, creating
new opportunities for the PGZ Group, as a re-
sult of memoranda signed with Hyundai Rotem
and Hanwha Defence.
PGZ's Defense Contracts
Back in April, the PGZ-Narew consortium
signed a contract on the delivery of the first
elements of the Narew system based around
the CAMM missile, and also on the integration
of those elements with components provided
by the Polish Armed Forces. The first elements
for the „Little Narew" fire unit have been de-
livered over a term of 6 months. The delivery
included the iLauncher CAMM launchers sup-
plied by MBDA UK, acting as a foreign partner,
placed on highly mobile Jelcz 8x8 platforms,
integrated with a Polish-made C2 system and
Soła radar.
Back in May, the PGZ Group concluded a con-
tract on delivery of MSBS/GROT assault rifles
and accessories for the Armed Forces of one
