By GlobalDataThe DSCA informed that the implementation of this FMS will not require the US government or contractor representatives to visit Poland.
In a statement, DSCA said: “This proposed sale will support the foreign policy goals and national security objectives of the US by improving the security of a Nato ally that is a force for political stability and economic progress in Europe.
“The proposed sale of this equipment and support will not alter the basic military balance in the region.”
Delivery of the new missile systems will allow Poland to modernise its military capabilities and help deter a wide range of regional adversaries and strengthen its homeland security.
With these defence articles, the country will also further be able to enhance interoperability with the US and other allied and partner forces.
In 2018, the US State Department approved the FMS of 300 AGM-114R Hellfire missiles and associated equipment to Kuwait.
