“In line with our commitment to strengthen the Polish Armed Forces, today I approved another contract, a vital element in the development of our Armed Forces. To the existing six Regina-type artillery fire modules, we are adding another six. This contract involves the acquisition of 152 KRAB self-propelled howitzers, along with accompanying vehicles, including ammunition loaders, technical surveillance vehicles, and command vehicles for individual units,” Minister Błaszczak stated.

Reiterating that the Polish Army currently comprises 193,000 soldiers, Błaszczak mentioned the ongoing voluntary basic military service course, with over 8,000 soldiers enrolled.

He reaffirmed the achievable goal of building a 300,000-strong army, stating it is entirely feasible with dedication and determination.
